Welcome to my real home, not to be confused with
upstairs which is just for
show. Sometimes from here, I stream things out to the internet
(musical things or maybe just me playing or talking) via
youtube, or twitch or homebrew system through a vps server I
set-up somewhere 😆
In the 15 plus years I've been trying to do this, (for certain
definitions of trying) upstream residential bandwidth has barely
increased, at least not in my neck of the woods. Hopefully we'll
be up at a 5mbs uplink this summer here and I can start streaming
more things.
Obviously what has also happened is YouTube and Twitch have
taking over video streaming. What I plan to so is set up a vps to
relay streams I feed to it to other endpoints, so I can stream to
several of these providers at once whoich only taking up one
stream's uplink bandwidth. Hopefully I will be able to streams to
some of the smaller providors at the same time, such as DLive.
Oh it's been over four years, but real soon now I will
make more music available here. I plan to occasionally stream live
which I will then archive into ‘podcasts’. Also I will be
adding some songs to the juke box. I just
have to finish the scripts that will make it almost automatic
*grin*. Check the Listen page for
the current online status, which is ‘offline’,
becuase if it wasn't I'd remove this message ;-)
I have succeeded in upgrading my computer so now I'm only about one
(well maybe 1 1/2) generations behind the Jones. I have completed my
transition to the ogg vorbis format for my internal compressed
audio files although I'll still be webcasting in that yucky
em-pee-3 format for alittle while longer. Oh and I've started
playing live on the internet again, though just
occasionally and at random times... soon I'll organize that better,
but while you're waiting for me to get my act together I have one
song you can download here and listen
too... you'll need ogg vorbis... or maybe i already said
that.
Also I have some pictures of the old place for ya'all. As you will see, not only is my computer and it's software under constant re-contruction, so is the studio
itself!
