The Implication

What’s the last album you listened to straight through?

This to shall pass.

While it’s not necessary to follow along with ATUM’s story—which traces the journey of a rock star named Shiny, who’s been exiled in space—it does enrich the experience. Or, at the very least, help make loose connections as to how Corgan confronts his own mythology head-on through the character.

Corgan began to build the pieces of ATUM as far back as 2018, when he regained his footing by venturing into back-to-basics guitar rock (SHINY AND OH SO BRIGHT, VOL. 1) after welcoming guitarist James Iha back into the fold. Specifically, the intergalactic plotting of the track “Alienation,” which Corgan revealed via his podcast Thirty-Three—where he premiered new tracks while breaking down the album’s story in the lead-up to its official release—was a significant stepping stone to dreaming up the album’s extensive lore. Clocking in at nearly two and a half hours, ATUM delivers a complex mix of dystopian themes, ranging from the dangers of technocracy and fatalism to the permissibility of suppressing free speech. Make of that what you will, but no one can deny that Corgan is very much in his element

Bitcoin nodes come as go as they please.

Same with Bitcoiners.

They only need to sync back up.

“The Algorithm”

That’s where I’m at. Plus I can’t settle on which plugins I use and work flow.

If it flies, it spies.

How so?

Being lazy. Also I have a ton of blocks that won’t export correctly.

I’m still deciding my obsidian vault & folder structure too.
