Ety, Ringer of Bells ^G<p>Sometime in the next few months, my regular stream co-host will be out of pocket for a few weeks.</p><p>I think that that'll be a great time to do some <a href="https://hive.institute/tags/HomeLab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HomeLab</span></a> <a href="https://hive.institute/tags/Streaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Streaming</span></a> instead. Maybe that'll be the motivation to get the full CO-to-subscriber T1 circuit working and we can poke at it while on air?</p><p>Still need to snag a H4TU-C card for the CO side, and will probably need to rig something up for power and signal since I won't have the unit that that's meant to slot into.</p><p><a href="https://hive.institute/tags/OtherNetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OtherNetworks</span></a> <a href="https://hive.institute/tags/Telephony" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Telephony</span></a></p>
Lori Emerson<p>Eh the gang’s all here, murmuring excitedly among themselves! or, preparations for an <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a> lecture-performance continue apace!</p>
Lori Emerson<p>Hello? Is that you, Advance Copy? <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a></p>
Lori Emerson<p>look at these fantastic African American QSL cards from 1979-1981! 73s and 88s <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/amateurradio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>amateurradio</span></a> <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a> <a href="https://collections.newberry.org/asset-management/2KXJ8ZSQF5NWL?WS=SearchResults&amp;Flat=FP" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">collections.newberry.org/asset</span><span class="invisible">-management/2KXJ8ZSQF5NWL?WS=SearchResults&amp;Flat=FP</span></a> (via <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://zirk.us/@markstoneman" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>markstoneman</span></a></span>)</p>
Lori Emerson<p>I am regretting I didn't perfectly qualify the quote from that piece about how radio cannot be tracked...listen, there are things you can do to obfuscate your radio activity just as there are things you can do when you get online. to me, the point is that in 2025 radio is an OTHER space, one that doesn't involve corporate tracking (of everything and anything as minute as practically the air you breathe), one whose potential is still largely untapped, and reminds us of the importance of choice and heterogeneity. I suppose I will need to repeat myself now many times and I suppose so be it! <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a></p>

Lori Emerson<p>my plan for an <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a> lecture-performance is shaping up nicely! "Other Networks: Beyond the Internet Imaginary" will be entirely outside the 'net and will include a Kodak 4400 slide carousel for images (with a 20 foot long wired remote control), 15 battery-powered radios, a mini FM transmitter, a first generation iPod, a wired speaker, 10 semaphore flags, directions for speaking and clapping morse code, and two different "Other Networks" stamped postcards. coming to Boulder sometime...soon!</p>

Lori Emerson<p>hey! you can listen to the 9955 kHz live stream of WRMI, Radio Miami International (a commercial international shortwave radio station) via telephone! call +1-641-741-1762. you can also broadcast for as little as $1/minute <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a> <a href="https://wrmi.net/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">wrmi.net/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
Lori Emerson<p>speaking my language - I'm still convinced radio is the future: "Radio is the ultimate internet circumvention tool because it is not the internet. And it can’t be tracked." <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a> <a href="https://www.radioworld.com/columns-and-views/guest-commentaries/why-we-need-shortwave-2-0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">radioworld.com/columns-and-vie</span><span class="invisible">ws/guest-commentaries/why-we-need-shortwave-2-0</span></a></p>

Lori Emerson<p>I have been thinking more, too, about the spirit animating <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a> and how to explain my disinterest in contributing much more to the already massive mountain of critique of our present situation. I don't have anything particularly useful to add to what has already been said anyways. Instead, I (just) want to show how <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a> are still possible. I heard Van Jones say that we need to move away from calling people (or situations) OUT and instead return to calling people UP. and it reminded me also of Latour's encouragement for us to become "not the one who debunks, but the one who assembles. The critic is not the one who lifts the rugs from under the feet of the naive believers, but the one who offers the participants arenas in which to gather."</p>
Lori Emerson<p>the more I think about it, the more I think it'd be an effective push against everything despicable that's unfolding right now if we all got back to some basics like using cash, using the postal system, listening to the radio...and more. And I'm not saying this out of a desire to do something cute and fun but instead as a reminder that we can recover some things from the past out of a spirit of remembering their usefulness <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a></p>
Lori Emerson<p>so many fantastic workshops and talks on low/small tech today at Temple U's Charles library! I'm also talking about a handful of <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a> at 2pm and handing out a few copies of Build Your Own Mini FM Transmitter - stop by to say hi? <a href="https://sites.temple.edu/efaire/schedule-and-registration/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">sites.temple.edu/efaire/schedu</span><span class="invisible">le-and-registration/</span></a></p>
Lori Emerson<p>I've started activating my spy network (otherwise known as "mom") to ask local bookstores to stock my book <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a>, especially since it's back to having a distributor. you too could be my mom? ha? <a href="https://shop.mexicansummer.com/merch/495898-lori-emerson-other-networks-a-radical-technology-sourcebook" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">shop.mexicansummer.com/merch/4</span><span class="invisible">95898-lori-emerson-other-networks-a-radical-technology-sourcebook</span></a></p>
Lori Emerson<p>my new pitch: come to my talk on <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/othernetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>othernetworks</span></a> and I'll tell you all about my three year long friendship with no other than Squirrelfrend because let it be known that for the first time in 3 years Squirrelfrend let me pet her for a full 5 minutes whilst she ate her Deluxe Nuts. sold?</p>
