@will@twtxt.net At work we are using KeePass with Multi Cert KeyProvider Plugin.

https://www.creative-webdesign.de/en/software/keepass-plugins/multi-cert-keyprovider

We leave master password empty. Each person needs an own certificate to access the database file.

Not using a master password makes it easy to add or remove people with access w/o changing (and sharing) a master password.

I haven’t been very “productive” in my spare time lately, in the sense that my creative output has been quite low. It feels quite liberating that I don’t really care.

a microblogging creative coding platform like dwitter, but for sound. users would be encouraged to remix, the output of one persons code would become the input of the new code. only text would be stored on the server, with audio rendered client-side. to save on time, there could be caches of frozen audio for remixes. #halfbakedideas

A good user interface is a lot like a standup routine: you take the deep knowledge of an audience and twist it in creative ways so that they now understand something they couldn’t have imagined on their own.

Band name of the day: creative misunderstandings of the source material

Media mix is interesting. You can optimize a work for adaptation but that keeps you from taking advantage of features of your medium. The best adaptations are sometimes difficult-to-adapt medium-specific forms that forced creativity (ex. Bakemonogatari)

Interface usability in a nutshell: minimize how often the simplest way to do a thing the user wants to do is 1) hard to imagine before you see it, or 2) hard to understand once observed. Assume the user is more creative than you & less well-informed.

The human condition: weaker than a lever, dumber than a calculator, worse memory than a notebook, and less creative than a pair of dice

The Creativity Driving DOS Nostalgia https://tedium.co/2018/07/17/dos-nostalgia-squirrel-monkey-interview/

Hot take: the big problem in generative art is not that computers aren’t creative but that computers don’t have taste. We’ve solved that problem by building taste into the mechanisms of generation instead of building filters.
