Metro Musings: Hive It To Archive It

Hey! I'm Ben Haley. This is my new Hive community so folks from my audience can get onto Hive and get involved. I want people to play in this space fast and loose, so pretty much anything goes.

And that INCLUDES my silly ramblings! Huzzah.

See, I take the metro to my studio and back 5 times a week, so I'm pretty much always looking for things to do. Well, if you have 30 minutes, why not slap together a post for Hive?

Are you on board? Because I'm onboard! The metro! This is Metro Musings.

Today I want to talk about a not-so-unique problem which I have, called "I have more notes than braincells". Which is fair, because nowadays everyone does so many different activities in their day that without good notes we wouldn't have anything.

So, where better to "make use", so to speak, of no longer needed notes? Simply repurpose them into a lovely little post and pop them on your favoueite Beehouse-themed Blockchain.

There's a lots of different folks, like
Tchsuuuly https://twitter.com/Tschuuuuly?s=09(I don't know how to post links properly yet sorry) who publishes snippets and doodles on Ethereum as NFTs. They inspired me to give that my own lil' spin through writing. So thanks! I don't know how to tag folks either, it'll be something like @tchsuuuly if they're here.

@kristyglas (WHO IS HERE! Hi Kristy! We all love you!) said it would be a good idea to get my used research out into the world, too- so this is that. If you haven't been buying her art, you are missing out on a phenomenal artist.

Hive is just one of those things you've got to get into the habit of using. It's like the first week of Reddit, or a company Slack server. A couple of weeks of this and I'm sure I'll be hiving like the best of 'em!

We've got about half of this trip left, so let me give you some choice cuts from my notes that never got used:

  • An article about Catherine De Medici loving Murder She Wrote
  • Why Mariachi Music absolutely slaps
  • How the creative commons protects trans rights

Pick your favourite, the top comment chooses. We'll talk about it tomorrow.

I think I'll be keeping to a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday - Saturday schedule. I skip Wednesdays as having a day off away from your studio helps you get on with the boring non-art tasks. And Sunday? Well the metro doesn't run well, so I suppose we'll delay the Metro Musings too.

You'll also have to excuse any typos and bad editing. I'm on a phone on a train. That's the whole point 😂

Whatever work I put into an article will get published the MOMENT I hit my destination. So that's a good excuse for not finishing on a strong note.

But, for today, I'm done! I'll see yous tomorrow. Ciao!
