The IG recruitment to #nostr begins.

I’ve always loved curating #music, from making mixtapes as a kid to building playlists that reflect my moods, seasons, and energy. But lately, I’ve found myself relying on #Spotify’s Discover Weekly, marveling at how well it seems to know me—until I started questioning if I’m truly discovering music or just passively consuming it. The rise of algorithm-driven playlists and even AI-generated artists has blurred the line between authentic discovery and convenience. This realization led me to reflect on how passive consumption shapes not just how I listen to music but how I eat, shop, and engage with the world around me.

I’d be down to get rid of the heart button on @primal. ZAPS or bust.

Another insightful episode. The part about nodes really clarified things for me. Weekly tuition sent! https://fountain.fm/episode/SZg5OAqrBzbUlCQ3pkrI View quoted note →

My recommendations to anyone getting started with with #nostr is to: A) load your wallet and zap sats B) populate your feed as often as you can by trying to find people from other platforms here (it’s mostly bitcoiners at this point…but they’re all here!) C) contribute!

PRIMAL ZAP EXPERIEMENT I recently published my third #streetphotography book based on the images I have collected in "east vancouver" over the past year. This is the best of the best photos in a large format (17cm x 24.5 cm) high quality print. It contains 164 Portraits from 2024, printed on 80 lb recycled stock with 100 lb quality Matte Cover. These are Limited First Edition - Hand Numbered 100 copies, and of those 100 copies I only have about 10 left. I've been loving experimenting and getting to know the #nostr ecosystem and thought this could be an interesting way to spread the book around the globe. I will pay for shipping! If you're interested in zapping some sats for a copy, zap 27500 sats and DM me your address and I will send you a copy! If you'd like to see some samples of my photography, you can check the links in my bio #photography #experiment #zap #artstr #introductions
