There it is…

That creative impulse. A release. Random thoughts. A bit nostalgic. Somewhat jaded.

This is the blog of Floyd Wilde, a practicing Net Artist who writes poetry, makes digital collages, and tries to avoid situations that Philip K. Dick wrote about.

His pronouns are he/him. He supports equality and acceptance of LGBTQIA+ people and their lives.

He recognizes, respects and honours indigenous peoples, particularly Maori who he has the great privilege to be included in a treaty with.

Basically he’s woke.

In no particular order, these are things that he is interested in:

  • China
  • Linux
  • Walks in the park
  • Art Museums
  • Art in general
  • Network based art
  • Learning Mandarin
  • Spanish
  • Wine
  • DevOps
  • Music
  • Free and Open Source Software
  • Cryptocurrencies
  • Dadaism
  • Surrealism
  • Post-modernism
  • Writing
  • Criticism

He should make these into tags, but he is also incredibly lazy. There are some tags though:

LibriVox

He made a few recordings for LibriVox a while ago.
