Anniversary of Creative Commons 25th in slightly less than 24 hours. If I had planned this better I could have sent it out 25 hours in advice.

All are welcome! You can come and listen or share music. You can also chat via text (or audio) with #downtempo artist Viktor Van Riverr, hip hop musicians Cheese & Pot-C. Maybe they will bring Longjohn! Doubt they will be there the whole time due to timezones, but we shall see!

URL is meet.jit.si/ccmusic

You can inspect the jitsi code at https://sourceforge.net/projects/jitsi-meet.mirror/files/ or https://github.com/jitsi

No login is required (except for moderators, aka me). No audio is required. No video is required.

You can join from any browser or pick up the app: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.jitsi.meet/ (also available from Apple and Google)

Sharing options are a bit different on different platforms.

I'll post the watch/listen URL once it is created. I have tried to get those URLs to work ahead of time and I can't always get it work the way I want of OBS.

We'll be live somewhere at https://www.youtube.com/@friendsofccmusic though. Afterwards, the video should sync to https://dalek.zone/c/cc_community_music_awards/videos but if not I will do it manually. At some point I will get the live stream via PeerTube working but so far I have not had success with that.

There is also work going on to use owncast in the future. @wjmaggos is leading that project if you want to help him out.

If you can't make it, setting up your own event is highly encouraged! You can also join The Bugcast or RynoTheBearded tonight for their weekly celebrations of #ccmusic

If these sorts of get together's sound fun, but January isn't a good time, we help put on a 51-hour music only stream with @wiloma in July for #netlabelday. Never too early to start thinking about #netlabelday2026!

If there are things you would like me to play tomorrow, feel free to send suggestions! No genre limitations. It is a 4 hour event, so probably nothing over 20 minutes, but if you have longer suggestions I can always play a portion. If things thin out after the Asians leave then maybe I will play something long while I hang out and wait for folks. Drop in any time.

If you have questions, let me know! I should probably send this out or that slightly less than 24 hours is no longer going to be true! As always, please boost!
