Art and music topics do appear on HN front page, but only when they satisfy intellectual curiosity.

Sharing art or music itself rarely does this, but I remember recently seeing an acid house generator, and another had a constellation of electronic music samples along a long page.

My highest voted story submission by far was when the Netherlands Bach Society started the All of Bach project many years back. It's somewhat random what will catch HN's attention.
I remember the acid house generator, but I missed that constellation of samples sounds really interesting. Would love to see it if you had a link.
Found it, and after a few months since it was posted, I was misremembering the scope of the list; it’s significantly more than just electronic music.

Might be referring to Ishkur’s Guide To Electronic Music? https://music.ishkur.com/
really wish there was a “Literature Extension,” actually specifically for HN

love this website & audience but am doing work in the “building copyleft storytelling” space - a community of which does not yet seem to exist

but wait a sec - what “building copyleft storytelling” even mean except for sounding like some make believe fantasy thing?

by vision rn it’s something like coding but with respect to allowing a new community of creators to grow / develop via effectively “using” (fan-fiction-ing”) a copyleft creators work for new & original creation of

- story

- character

- plot

available for anyone to create w & sell commercial on the basis that they likewise license their work as copyleft Creative Commons CC BY-SA & link-to/credit original source work

https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/

i.e

this week am actually releasing signature characters from 3 vol of my free 2 read copyright short story series as copyleft / Creative Commons (CCBYSA) “copyleft character personas” anyone can create w/ (w license & link to credit source)

- NFT art (imagine a cryptopunk with a backstory)

- new orginal story ft copyleft character

- develop copyleft world build

will this be a use-case for crypto ecosystem? i.e ETH for Art/Character/Copyleft world-building?

if no, then what about when considering the “attention-economy”?

if curious about, short story series can be found here - https://blondyn.com

& almost daily superstrings here: http://superstrings.substack.com

for the record, if one vote can count, i do not mean this reply to come off as a shameless “post-selfie” but a legitimate “idea-pitch” from a HN regular of about 5 yrs who is “a writer” that is having difficulty finding an audience which == real bad kinda (sweat-drop + smile emoji goes here;)

also real bad is having zero folk / friends to talk about such an idea with

if this post still makes peeps mad just know just saw this link & the Cheshire post reply on “Art & Music” & imagined “Storytelling” could maybe fit in there as a neat 3rd thus thought to make like Wonderland /share something that ought at a minimum count as curious while simultaneously in quest to be mindful

also if such a copyleft storytelling community does exist pls share thx

What's the best way to contact you?

We could have an interesting conversation since we've been working on very similar things.

edit: email and socials are in my profile

Updated profile also / look forward to connecting
