  • The History Of Giving Someone The Middle Finger 

    The History Of Giving Someone The Middle Finger 

    Eine Geste, die wir alle kennen. Und noch dazu eine sehr schöne, im Zwischenmenschlichen Verhältnis, wie ich meine. Weird History hat sich in dem gleichnamigen Youtube-Kanal die Mühe gemacht, der Geschichte des Finger-Zeichens einmal nachzugehen.

    Let’s set the scene. You’re livid, you want to scream at someone. But for some reason, you can’t speak. What gesture do you give them? That’s right – the good ol’ middle finger comes immediately to mind, right? The middle finger has been known as a way to display anger for a very long time – going all the way back to ancient Greece. In fact, it’s “one of the most ancient insult gestures known,” according to anthropologist Desmond Morris.

  • VR Microphone to preserve privacy

    The Metaverse is uncharted land. A big bet for many. Because it opens up so many new opportunities, that lie in the virtual and the physical world. MuTalk is concerned about your voice in public. With goggles on, it’s impossible to note who’s around you. Anything expressed in such a setting can end a leak to bystanders.

    To let you immerse into the Metaverse on, say, a train platform while you wait for your commute, MuTalk now allows you to do virtual meetings with your corporate colleagues without risking your privacy.

    MuTalk Microphone

    MuTalk is a bizarre-looking Bluetooth microphone that lets you chat privately in public thanks to its sound absorption material.

    Welle:Erdball – Drogenexzess im Musikexpress

    Irgendwie verfolgt mich Welle:Erdball gefühlt schon mein ganzes Leben, obwohl die Formation nie richtig Mittelpunkt meiner Aufmerksamkeit war. Zum ersten Mal wahrgenommen habe ich die deutschsprachige Elektropop-Band bei einer meiner ersten Demoparties. Das muss ca. 1997 gewesen sein, Mekka Symposium in Fallingbostel bei Hannover. Dem Publikum habe ich das Duo kulturell sehr nahe bzw. sogar verwandt wahrgenommen. Und irgendwie hat mich die Auffassung der Szene genausowenig losgelassen wie die Musik. Und so kommt alle paar Jahre was neues von Welle:Erdball in meine Filterblase. So wie gestern Drogenexzess im Musikexpress. Es ist immer noch nicht komplett meine Musik und trotzdem kann ich mich irgendwie ein paar Tage für den sehr speziellen Synth-Sound erwärmen:
