About to attempt to migrate to my own instance - which I gather is not a 100% water-tight process, so I imagine I'll lose some folk along the way. New deets in profile just in case.
My sincere thanks to @npub1zps…43k4 for hosting this instance - I've been very happy here, but I've been self hosting more so wanted to try out GTS for a bit. I may well regret it and come back (if they'll have me) in the future :)
Anyway, thanks all I follow for being a great part of the internet, and please keep it up!

embarrassingly despite going there once a year for however many years I’ve never seen the old bits (which is what the others on this thread were telling me I should do)

@npub1394…8wv0 [@jackie_pease](https://mastodon.me.uk/@jackie_pease ) this short article about the spaces in the Central Library by a Liverpool based photographer I follow reminded me of our conversation on Sunday

@npub1sp3…0305 [@jackie_pease](https://mastodon.me.uk/@jackie_pease ) @npub1394…8wv0 at the brunch there was the chap who made the wave prints using traditional techniques aided with a laser cutter - do you know if he's written this up anywhere? I was trying to explain it to a friend and I suspect doing a terrible job at it :)

I drifted for a good while, before ended up in academia, where I've had fun helping ecologists with their research, speeding up their computation and building things to support their research.
I get to learn a lot about a new domain I'm not an expert in (I hope to get my junior ecologist merit badge any day soon), and I'm helping those who are trying to save the planet by using the skills I have, which feels a much better use for them.

I don’t understand, where are the lights? Does it work without them?

Excited to be at Liverpool Makefest (aka @npub1dkd…vevf ) this Saturday! Currently driving up with three guitars and an amp in the back, so if you’re near Liverpool Central Library come by and make some noise and learn about how I mix luthiery and 3D-printing!

nice! We drove past Adastral Park last month - I feel this kind of architecture perhaps just reminds me of the future Jerry Anderson promised me which is why I'm with you on this.

we'd actually just come from having had our morning coffee on the left and went to get a boat out to the archipelago on the right :)

although hopefully see you at Wuthering Bytes? (trying to remember if you said you were going or not)

next time we're up that way I'll give you a shout! I've not spent a huge amount of time in that neck of the woods, so it was lovely to see a bit of it and we definitely want to come back.

thanks! It was a weird day - a mile away it was bright sunshine, and then this is the beach at Blyth which was just thick fog, but with some glow to it. We had lunch in a very British way and then I got some time lapses. Very fortunate timing.
