Misc

Hi and welcome to my hemp knight temple, Apez42. The inners of my minds'.

have an open mind okay i'm not having the greatest time atm



Thursday 14th August 2025:

What so this is a blog now is it?

anyways Tzopaglyphs was half done ish when i started my last college year so I finished it off and submitted it as the project

Good news I got a distinction for my work on that so cool ig

Means I can borrow £18,000 from the government to live in a small flat and keep making music whilst I'm doing sound and lighting

IMO music courses are pointless and achieve nothing so might aswell do a practical skill thats employable right?

Should supply me enough money in a career to live anyways

erm government wise I have no idea how I will afford it but we'll see we'll see


Also today?

I'm currently (as I'm typing this) sorting out a time machine back up of my mac laptop, erm which is as exciting as it sounds

well i was excited until I saw how long it takes :/ , anyways it's so I can downgrade to MacOS 12 which is the last version to natively support FireWire Audio inside of CoreAudio

I personally dont feel like spending £120 on a cheap audio interface when I have a perfectly good one that i got for free from a clearance at my college.

I had to buy a Thunderbolt 2 -> 3 adapter from cex which cost me ALMOST FORTY QUID, holy floof thats steep.

right well anyways I like crud like this makes me feel like a proper old technologika bloke cus I still use firewire.

I'm not even sure how [FireWire 400 -> 800] -> [Firewire 800 -> Thunderbolt 2] -> [Thunderbolt 2 -> 3] even works without any latency but sure I'll take it.

erm no drivers unfortunately being a 'Plug n Play' interface so I've had to revert to MacOS 12 instead but who cares I only use this laptop for music and firefox

Also whats with MacOS in general I don't get it, I thought there were like 4 versions not 278,000. Mac system 7 then OS-X then the newish ones what do you mean I'm on 'selliliquiol of the first right' what tf is that?????



All 13th august 2025 under here:

MISC IMAGES with some explanations if i can think to give one

hmm, to you earthylls this is what the 1:1 image to audio conversion of the BioZone 2 track 'Polygonal Ridge' looks like. Try it

inner workings of BioZone II's cover, some fungal wood infection but blue?

inner workings of???? you guessed BioZone3 WRONG it was BioZone III, jk 3

Some Bryce render tests for The Glass Idolatry

render errors(well not really render errors it did exactly what i told it to but still) in the video for Penallt Viadukt, the sun(master light) keeps it's position in frame throughout unfortunately, I did fix this in the other 4 renders.

poster I made that was used for the only public YPbPr gig, AND YOU WEREN'T THERE, jk i never played any electronic songs there( I did a live cover of ITs Itz though!) this was PseudoGoose LIVE, and other bands obviously not just me

the final poster included names of all the bands but i cant find it anywhere annoyingly

So basically the first proper Azureus gig? not really we played loads the year prior but still.

another render, this one was on Bryce 3 as opposed to Bryce 7 for some reason

back of the CD which only I have

concept art

recognise placid? here it is a few years later in the winter(pretty sure the original was taken in winter sort of time anyways as it got dark about 5-6PM

really liked this one? some museum in Bristol




Today's query

What's next for YPbPr

Hmm, I ask that a lot and generate a different answer each time mostly

Realistically from 2025 onwards it's in Azureus, what was once previously known as PseudoGoose

What?

Pseudo-Goose now very much moved into Azureus is my jazz band I created in 2022 but didnt really start until 2023

It was me and my drummer friend with me on keys playing some lovely background tunes, ALL improvised for anywhere in time, 5 mins to 4 hours(really 4 hours yes)

Errrm and then in 2024 I had a communication with the squids once more and they reminded me of my greatest inspiration for the Azureus project which I have now begun

So basically Azureus as it is is my evolution of the Second Page, Two pages by 4hero. They did the perfect album for me and now I must give my perfect album for the next uhh me I guess?

Relatively speaking I guess that other 'me' isn't even born yet so I welcome him/her to fan over my niche schizo page, MAKE MUSIC FOR YOUR HEAD.

Doctor says it's good for you

Back on topic please!

Apologies, Azureus has been established now as my entry into the future, I love YPbPr now I prefer /Pb/ but yes. Azureus will continue my electronic stream no doubt, I can't just bin off my livelyhood that easily

So no worries on that front I will make heavy use of my £250 drum machine, also I CANNOT BELIVE I PAID THAT MUCH WTF WAS I THINKING, i looked on my old phone gallery and saw the purchase screenshot!!!

Look having a 909 AND an 808 in the same box with midi in out USB and delay reverb is awesome but I CAN BARELY AFFORD TO DRIVE A CAR why did i- jesus man don't let 16 year olds keep money from having a job holy moly.

SO actually wait let me put this in big headers because I suppose this is me finally answering the question

SO WHAT ACTUALLY IS AZUREUS YOU ASK

Azureus is the natural blend between the later stage electronics of YPbPr and my unreleased jazz/soul/funk background collaborating with many folks in Stroud, you will want to hear this.

All people under 25 crave optimism FACT, so I invest my love into this new (old) project that will fulfil my destiny for Lord Frith, the black rabbit.

This will hopefully end up releasing physically a bit like Tzopaglyphs did but like more proper



FUN FACT: TH42 otherwise known to u lot as 'Parallel Blue' has the vocals un-on-purpose inspired by 'Virtual' by 'The Black Dog'



Todays scrambles:

I dont like having everything go phasey

what the fluff does that even mean?

I think it's something to do with spacial observantry?

hmm only induced in certain scenarios, usually social

Yes thoughter of the hemp knights, dark prince in your mind. You have psychosis prick

sorry for asking? Just a question

I'd like to be an angel too


Is there a less annoying way to type in HTML?

yesh probably but I cba to look it up so I manually type every single (p)(/p) and every single (li)(h1)(ul)(/li)(/h1)(/ul)

images are always fun to remember how to implement too aren't they.

NO!

Thought as much


Talking about 2025: Tzopaglyphs

The project I scalped my head for

Never before has a project resonated so much with a thimble in my head, not even an earthquake could do that. Track names like icykiltik tricysectymn-3 Azureus Tzopa BlueFraex Triphynol.

Those names came from somewhere I dive into in my cortex, I'd love to visit again but I can only appear in utter paranoia. Total Brain Destruction results in such cases unfortunately
