Dear creative people of the fedi 😊🎨🎹❤️

I am thrilled to announce that my 3rd album is now not available online.

Yep, you read that right, you can't download it, you can't stream it, you can't buy it, and AI bros can't harvest it.

It is only available in exchange for something creative that you have created yourself.

More info and how it works:

Boosts are hugely appreciated. 🥰

The making of "Trendula" @ Reinhardswald, July 2024

everything that's going on
everything that's come and gone
everything that's on the news
the only side that's left to choose
every vote that elon bought
every truth you never sought
every profit soaked in blood
every village drowned in flood

take it away
take it away

I received a letter. Pretty huge envelope.

And it contained one of the most beautiful book(let)s I have encountered so far. It does deserve the denotation of artwork quite a bit, containing stunning photographs and the lyrics. Now let's see… there's music on this little USB wood block to listen to!

For those wondering, it's the album #StrategiesAgainstAlgorithms by @stephan which can(not) get from here: https://strategies.schallundstille.de/

I'm listening to my copy of #StrategiesAgainstAlgorithms for the first time! I'm three songs in and it as already brilliant. Thanks, @stephan !!

Finally got around to listening to "Strategies against Algorithms" by @stephan and I love it! A personal, sincere album, at times bleak, wrestling with climate change, AI, and other serious topics of our time. I especially enjoyed the interesting, warm synthesizer sounds.
It comes with a big beautiful booklet with handwritten lyrics.

You cannot buy this album. It is only available in exchange for something you created yourself: https://strategies.schallundstille.de/

I continue to be blown away by all the creativity and love I get to experience in #strategiesagainstalgorithms – I'd never thought it possible, and it makes me So. Very. Glad.

I'm touched and humbled by the need and the willingness to share that actually is out there, and by the deep humanity of it.

And it really makes me think – beyond the fact that big social is broken. Thoughts still unstructured, but once this project is over, I may be able to put them into words.
