I Accidentally Promised to Run a Big Tech Summit Music Stream!

The Origin Story: From Prague Summit to Virtual London Event This week, I have a couple of things scheduled that I need to do. And one of them is because I talked myself into a project that I wasn't necessarily ready for. A few years back, I played at a summit that happened in Prague. It was for the Ubuntu Summit. It's a summit that's for free and open source culture, and mainly is about the operating system Ubuntu, which is a Linux operating system. My band played there because we are Ubuntu users and we are open-source artists. They announced that they were going to be doing another one this year from London. They were going to announce the details and all this and I was like, I would like to go to London. So, I contacted them and they were kind of like, well, we're not really doing it the same way this year. And I'm like, well, what's going on?

Artwork for the original Candy Land game by Milton Bradley from 1955.

I have a vintage Candy Land game from 1955 by Milton Bradley and I was about to sell it so I thought I would add it to my personal art history course concept I've been doing . I'm going to try and see if I can find out how this game was created, designed and why? Here is what I found out about this game https://candy-land.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land_Wiki Candy Land is a board game about children exploring a world made out of candy and other sweets that originally came out in 1949. In every version of the game, there are a group of children that go through Candy Land. In the earliest versions of the game, it was a realistically drawn boy and girl. Drawing of the Candy Land kids I did on my phone ☝ https://board-games-galore.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land The game was designed in 1948 by Eleanor Abbott , while she was recovering from polio in San Diego, California. It's rumored that Eleanor also did the original artwork but I didn't find anything that...

How I use one Gmail address for multiple Soundcloud accounts

Do you know the Gmail "+" trick to use one email for multiple accounts on one service? Here's a little trick I use that works for any service. I talked about this on the podcast episode I did with artist Mortimur K . In this case, let's say I used up all the uploads I have for my free Soundcloud account . With this trick, I can open a new free account and use the same Gmail address. I don't want to create another Gmail account to sign up again. Using my one Gmail address for multiple accounts on the same service I don't remember when I learned this but you can alter the name on a Gmail address. Like, let's say mine is "tom@gmail.com". To be clear that is not my email. I wish it was, but this is just a short example. Start with the original Gmail address Add a "+" after the email name Where it says "tom" on the address I can put a "+" after that. Add a "+" after the email name After that "+" I ca...
