Thanks to Geoscience Research Engineer and trombone player Dillon Buhl for participating in our programs over the years !! Here he is showing one of our old @nmassfest shirts to the Thwaites Glacier a few months ago!
The Thwaites Glacier is a massive, highly unstable ice mass in West Antarctica roughly the size of Florida or Britain. It is losing 88 billion tons of ice annually, contributing significantly to global sea-level rise, and threatens a further ~65 cm (over 2 feet) increase if it completely collapses. 😱

Thanks to @uxelite for helping us in administrative capacities this past year 💙✊🏼🏹🍀!
Check out his recent track in bandcamp !
“Accretion which began with the cover art, a score based on a cellular automata simulation. This score is interpreted for digital piano and synthesizer that translates sonically to notes accumulating in density filling the sonic field; the cacophony allows for observation of resulting patterns and evolving structures. Where entropy seems dominant, order unfolds. Harmony and dissonance are not antagonists but complimentary.
Music for piano, FM synthesizer, and reverb”

Hey!here’s some more information about artists presenting this coming Saturday at Cloud Tree Studio !
nudo is a psychic handshake/brain trust between Joaquin Tenorio and Eric Hernandez. Hailing from Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, MX and Eagle Pass, Texas, USA, respectively. The pair met while living in Austin, TX and have been making music together since 2017. Throughout this time, their sound has journeyed from something like an improvised industrial, to more aleatoric collage passages, and is currently honing in on a more song based, corrido oriented zone, however pried apart. They’ve integrated bassist Alonso Camacho to round out their sound and are working on their 3rd full length LP.
Thanks so much to @nudotxmx for visiting us this weekend!
O Visualizador de Stories do Instagram é uma ferramenta fácil que permite assistir e salvar stories, vídeos, fotos ou IGTV do Instagram secretamente. Com este serviço, você pode baixar conteúdos e apreciá-los offline sempre que quiser. Se você encontrar algo interessante no Instagram que gostaria de ver mais tarde ou quiser visualizar stories de forma anônima, nosso Visualizador é perfeito para você. Anonstories oferece uma excelente solução para manter sua identidade oculta. O Instagram lançou a funcionalidade de Stories em agosto de 2023, que logo foi adotada por outras plataformas devido ao seu formato dinâmico e sensível ao tempo. Os Stories permitem que os usuários compartilhem atualizações rápidas, sejam fotos, vídeos ou selfies, com textos, emojis ou filtros, e ficam visíveis por apenas 24 horas. Esse limite de tempo cria maior engajamento em comparação com posts comuns. Nos dias de hoje, os Stories são uma das formas mais populares de se conectar e comunicar nas redes sociais. No entanto, quando você visualiza um Story, o criador pode ver seu nome na lista de visualizadores, o que pode ser uma preocupação com a privacidade. E se você quiser navegar pelos Stories sem ser notado? É aí que o Anonstories se torna útil. Ele permite que você assista a conteúdos públicos do Instagram sem revelar sua identidade. Basta digitar o nome de usuário do perfil que você está curioso, e a ferramenta mostrará seus Stories mais recentes. Funcionalidades do Visualizador Anonstories: - Navegação Anônima: Veja Stories sem aparecer na lista de visualizadores. - Sem Conta Necessária: Veja conteúdos públicos sem se cadastrar no Instagram. - Download de Conteúdos: Salve qualquer conteúdo de Stories diretamente no seu dispositivo para uso offline. - Veja Destaques: Acesse os Destaques do Instagram, até mesmo após o prazo de 24 horas. - Monitoramento de Reposts: Acompanhe os reposts ou o nível de engajamento em Stories de perfis pessoais. Limitações: - Esta ferramenta funciona apenas com contas públicas; contas privadas permanecem inacessíveis. Benefícios: - Amigável à Privacidade: Veja qualquer conteúdo do Instagram sem ser notado. - Simples e Fácil: Não há necessidade de instalação de aplicativo ou registro. - Ferramentas Exclusivas: Baixe e gerencie conteúdos de maneiras que o Instagram não oferece.
Acompanhe as atualizações do Instagram de forma discreta, protegendo sua privacidade e permanecendo anônimo.
