Podcasts about chiron beta prime

Jonathan CoultonIf you've read our show notes, you'll know that our music was written and performed by Jonathan Coulton. I've known Jonathan for more than 30 years, dating back to when we sang together in college. But that's a story for another day, or perhaps never.Jonathan spent his first decade post college as a software coder and then through a bit of happenstance and throwing care to the wind, he transitioned to music. In the mid 2000s, he blazed a trail of creating his own career on the internet—without a label or any of the support that musicians normally have. While he was pushing out a new song each week as part of his Thing-A-Week Project, he became known as the “internet music-business guy” since he had successfully used the internet to build his career and a dedicated fanbase. He has since released several albums, toured plenty, and launched an annual cruise for his fans.Throughout his career, technology, and specifically AI, has been a theme—starting with his song Chiron Beta Prime in 2006 about a planet where all humans have been enslaved by uncaring and violent robots. During this interview we talk about his 2017 album Solid State which is well described by writer Emily Nussbaum who wrote, “Coulton's latest album, “Solid State,” is, like so many breakthrough albums, the product of a raging personal crisis—one that is equally about making music and living online, getting older, and worrying about the apocalypse. A concept album about digital dystopia, it's Coulton's warped meditation on the ugly ways the internet has morphed since 2004. At the same time, it's a musical homage to his earliest Pink Floyd fanhood, a rock-opera about artificial intelligence. It's a worried album by a man hunting for a way to stay hopeful.”In this interview, we talk with Jonathan about how he feels about Solid State now, his reaction to generative AI, and his experiences trying to use generative AI in songwriting. We're grateful to be able to grab Jonathan just before he left on tour with Aimee Mann. We hope you all take time to listen to Solid State and catch him live.About Artficiality from Helen & Dave Edwards:Artificiality is dedicated to understanding the collective intelligence of humans and machines.

It's Christmastime, and you're living on an asteroid run by evil robot overlords. You're writing one of those end-of-the-year family recap letters to everyone you know. What would it say? House musician Jonathan Coulton knows, and shares this holiday song of mirth, mistletoe and glowing red eyes, live from the Ask Me Another stage.

In this holiday episode, KC and Sue discuss Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" in its many incarnations, from the original novella to the Muppets.  We discuss the historical context of the work, why it's still so popular, how it influenced what we now think of as the "traditional" Christmas celebration, casting and direction choices, our favorite film and stage adaptions, and even Jacob Marley's motivation in death... among other things. Next time:  In January, we will be sharing our favorite geeky discoveries of 2012.  If you've discovered something over the last year that you'd like to tell us about, send us an email at moregirlygeekz@gmail.com, or visit us on Facebook or Twitter. The song at the end of this podcast is "Chiron Beta Prime" by Jonathan Coulton (jonathancoulton.com), and was released under a Creative Commons attribution non-commercial license.

Hi, and welcome to the Open Licensed Music Podcast, the show where we highlight music from artists who let you share their music.  I'm Ralph Wacksworth, and today's episode is featuring nontraditional Christmas music.  You can expect a bunch of songs with lyrics, some familiar and some not, along with many different styles of music that really just don't fit any other time of the year.  Some of them, particularly later in the episode, are really fun but a bit harsh.  So, without further ado, let's get started.Chiron Beta Prime (2:50 @ 0:25)O Tanning Bed (1:59 @ 3:13)O Come All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles) (ft. Admiral Bob) (2:54 @ 5:11)Silent night (1:55 @ 8:00)Wenceslas (2:53 @ 9:48)Sugar Plum Dark Mix (2:05 @ 12:35)That was Chiron Beta Prime by Jonathan Coulton, which is available from his website at jonathancoulton.com and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license.  After that was O Tanning Bed by Max DeGroot, which is available from The Funny Music Project and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license.  Then we had O Come All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles) (ft. Admiral Bob) by unreal_dm, which is available from ccMixter and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license.  Next up was Silent night by richjens and Wenceslas by Bad Hat, both of which are available from SoundCloud and are licensed under an Attribution license.  Finishing up was Sugar Plum Dark Mix by Kevin MacLeod, which is available from incompetech.com and is licensed under an Attribution license.The next set is composed of 11 variations of 4 songs.  So, let's take a listen.The Little Drummer Boy (2:37 @ 15:22)Little (Punk) Drummer Boy (3:18 @ 17:58)Wesley Dysart - Little Drummer Bot (2:54 @ 21:14)Carol of the Bells (1:09 @ 24:08)Carol of the Bells (1:54 @ 25:16)Carol of the Bells (1:07 @ 27:11)Angels We Have Heard on High (ft. Sunshine Paul, Bob Sorem, Rocavaco/SackJo22, Morusque) (4:06 @ 28:18)Angels on high (3:50 @ 32:23)Jingle Bells (2:53 @ 36:12)Jingle Bells (ft. SackJo22) (3:13 @ 39:04)Hardcore Jingle Bells (1:26 @ 42:16)That was The Little Drummer Boy by crashcombo, which is available from SoundCloud and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license.  After that was Little (Punk) Drummer Boy by MomentaryTrouble, Wesley Dysart - Little Drummer Bot by Wesleydysart, Carol of the Bells by Bill Barner, Carol of the Bells by William M Walker, and Carol of the Bells by Alvin Gao, all five of which are available from SoundCloud and are licensed under an Attribution license.  Then we had Angels We Have Heard on High (ft. Sunshine Paul, Bob Sorem, Rocavaco/SackJo22, Morusque) by texasradiofish, which is available from ccMixter and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license.  Next up was Angels on high by gbmusic and Jingle Bells by Harold Morton, which are both available from SoundCloud and are licensed under an Attribution license.  After that was Jingle Bells (ft. SackJo22) by unreal_dm, which is available from ccMixter and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license.  Finishing up was Hardcore Jingle Bells by Storyboards, which is available from SoundCloud and is licensed under an Attribution license.  Some of the songs this week are more nontraditional than others, and that one takes the cake.  I really really want to see it worked into some kind of a humorous open source Christmas-themed game.  Anyway...Today's app-of-the-day is Trigger Rally Online Edition, a browser-based obstacle course racing game with the same crazy physics I'm used to from racing games of the 90's.  Seriously, it's cool.  You'll need a very modern browser, I believe only Firefox and WebKit-based browsers and possibly Opera currently support it, and it uses the keyboard for controls.  If you have that, which I normally surf the web with anyway, the graphics are amazingly good, though if you play Version 1 you might want to play it without sound right now as they seem to be having some problems with that as of late.  Anyway, check it out today at triggerrally.comNow for a short noncommercial break from one of our nonsponsors followed by more music.The FuMPPodsafe Christmas Song (edited) (2:44 @ 47:23)02 Go Tell it on the Mountain (3:00 @ 50:05)11 The Bells (1:31 @ 53:05)Deck The Halls (Elves and Trumpets Mix) (ft. James Edwards) (3:17 @ 54:34)The Headbangin' Christmas Medley (4:35 @ 57:50)Auld Lang Syne (ft. Admiral Bob) (2:31 @ 1:02:18)That was an edited version of Podcast Promo by The FuMP, which is available from thefump.com and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license. After that was an edited version of Podsafe Christmas Song by Jonathan Coulton, which is available from his website at jonathancoulton.com and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license.  The cool thing about that song is that a few years ago it was very accurate.  I remember looking for open licensed Christmas music and could hardly find anything.  Nowadays, as evidenced by this week's and last week's episodes, we have tons of open licensed Christmas music thanks to all of the artists out there who are sharing their music and the websites that support and encourage open licensing.  Anyway, next up was 02 Go Tell it on the Mountain and 11 The Bells, both by the_2nd_tenor, available from SoundCloud, and licensed under an Attribution license.  Then we had Deck The Halls (Elves and Trumpets Mix) (ft. James Edwards) by spinningmerkaba, which is available from ccMixter and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license.  After that was The Headbangin' Christmas Medley by christopian, which is available from SoundCloud and is licensed under an Attribution license.  Finishing up was Auld Lang Syne (ft. Admiral Bob) by Benjamin Orth, which is available from ccMixter and is licensed under an Attribution license.So, that's all for today.  Remember - piracy of commercial music only proves your dependence on that model and justifies further censorship and restriction.  So don't pirate it - replace it with something better.  Listen to open licensed music, donate to the artists behind it, go to concerts, and buy music from artists whose record labels don't see you as their enemies.  Support artists where your support actually counts.This episode was made using Gentoo Linux, Xubuntu Linux, Audacity, Audacious for organizing playlists, and Leafpad for notes, and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license.  Feel free to give it to your friends, or if you didn't like it, your enemies.  Links to the songs in this podcast are available on the website.  Listen in next time for some electronic music.  See 'ya!Download MP3
