00:00:01.360 --> 00:00:04.480
Hello, my name is Grant Shangreaux.

00:00:04.480 --> 00:00:07.279
This is my talk titled Bard Bivou(m)acs:

00:00:07.279 --> 00:00:07.919
Publishing Music

00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:10.719
with Emacs. I'm a software

00:00:10.719 --> 00:00:12.799
developer with Unabridged Software in

00:00:12.799 --> 00:00:14.400
Lincoln, Nebraska.

00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:16.800
Long time Emacs user, relatively new

00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:18.720
Emacs hacker.

00:00:18.720 --> 00:00:20.480
Hopefully, I'll be able to show

00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:22.960
you my workflow, with

00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:30.480
how I publish music with Emacs.

00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:33.440
All right. So as a musician, I would like

00:00:33.440 --> 00:00:35.520
to publish my music online.

00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:37.200
I could publish with popular

00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:39.040
online music services,

00:00:39.040 --> 00:00:42.000
but I'm more of a DIY-type, so I chose to

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:44.719
go ahead and publish with Emacs.

00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:48.160
What's the motivation behind this?

00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:49.760
A lot of it comes down to some

00:00:49.760 --> 00:00:51.600
fundamental freedoms

00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:54.960
that Emacs and GNU software

00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:59.120
represent to me, as well as my

00:00:59.120 --> 00:01:01.840
ideas on culture and my background.

00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:04.080
I don't believe that music is a consumer good.

00:01:04.080 --> 00:01:06.080
It's a form of knowledge,

00:01:06.080 --> 00:01:08.320
like an algorithm.

00:01:08.320 --> 00:01:10.479
And it's just such a part of

00:01:10.479 --> 00:01:13.119
culture, like in tribal cultures, music

00:01:13.119 --> 00:01:16.640
was seen as a gift from the cosmos or

00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:18.000
the gods. It was

00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:19.920
a gift maybe through an individual

00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:21.920
vessel, but was shared with the people

00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:23.520
and shared with everyone,

00:01:23.520 --> 00:01:26.799
kept alive by the culture itself.

00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.840
So to me, music is something that

00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:31.520
should be shared and should be

00:01:31.520 --> 00:01:34.640
freely enjoyed by everyone. Of course,

00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:36.560
artists should be compensated as well,

00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:39.040
but that's a whole different topic.

00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:41.040
So when I want to share my music,

00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:42.720
I want to do it without impacting

00:01:42.720 --> 00:01:43.520
anyone's freedom.

00:01:43.520 --> 00:01:45.680
Using GNU software like Emacs is a

00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:49.200
good way that I can ensure that

00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:52.840
I won't be requiring people to

00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:55.840
sign away their freedoms for anything.

00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:57.119
There's a lot more I could say about

00:01:57.119 --> 00:01:58.799
this but I don't have time.

00:01:58.799 --> 00:02:03.439
Feel free to reach out to me by email or IRC.

00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:06.479
Part of the motivation for me,

00:02:06.479 --> 00:02:08.239
personally, is that Emacs is super

00:02:08.239 --> 00:02:10.720
magical. It's an all-in-one solution.

00:02:10.720 --> 00:02:12.720
Like I said, the GNU software aligns with

00:02:12.720 --> 00:02:14.480
Creative Commons' ideas.

00:02:14.480 --> 00:02:16.800
I can do file management. I can author

00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:18.879
HTML, all the web stuff I need even,

00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:20.239
literate-style.

00:02:20.239 --> 00:02:22.640
I can handle media and metadata. I've got

00:02:22.640 --> 00:02:24.640
version control, remote server access...

00:02:24.640 --> 00:02:26.800
All the tools I need are right under my

00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:28.080
fingertips with this tool

00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.000
that I use every day for a long time.

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:31.440
I don't need to look elsewhere.

00:02:31.440 --> 00:02:34.319
It was a challenge.

00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:36.319
I wanted to see if I could do this

00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:39.440
all within Emacs itself.

00:02:39.440 --> 00:02:41.680
So, how do you use Emacs to publish music?

00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:43.440
Well, for me, I needed

00:02:43.440 --> 00:02:45.120
a couple of things. I needed to be able

00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:46.480
to audition and label

00:02:46.480 --> 00:02:48.319
unlabeled audio tracks. I have a lot of

00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:50.000
files that I don't know where they

00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:51.280
came from. I don't know what they are. I

00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:53.840
need to be able to listen to them,

00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:56.800
and I need to be able to add metadata to

00:02:56.800 --> 00:02:58.480
whatever audio format it is

00:02:58.480 --> 00:03:00.800
and rename the files based on that

00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:03.200
metadata, potentially.

00:03:03.200 --> 00:03:05.120
And in the end, I wanted to take those

00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:08.319
files and programmatically produce a web page

00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:11.920
for people to consume. I found out that

00:03:11.920 --> 00:03:14.879
Emacs scores a hundred percent on all of

00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:18.000
these requirements that I had for this, and

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:20.720
a lot of that came from EMMS, the Emacs

00:03:20.720 --> 00:03:22.640
multimedia system.

00:03:22.640 --> 00:03:26.080
EMMS is great.

00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:27.760
If you haven't checked it out, please do.

00:03:27.760 --> 00:03:30.000
It's a little bit unintuitive, but

00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:34.000
once you get into it, you know it works.

00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.640
Basically, what EMMS gave me was the

00:03:36.640 --> 00:03:38.720
ability to listen to the tracks,

00:03:38.720 --> 00:03:39.680
organize playlists.

00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:41.280
On top of that, it gave me

00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:42.959
super-powered metadata authoring.

00:03:42.959 --> 00:03:45.040
I'm going to demonstrate that to you.

00:03:45.040 --> 00:03:47.200
So in order to do this,

00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:50.879
you have to require markable playlists,

00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:54.879
so (require 'emms-mark). I'm going to

00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:59.680
go through, and I'm going to open the red...

00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:02.319
I've got this. These files here. So

00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:04.480
you can see these files are mp3s.

00:04:04.480 --> 00:04:06.080
They're recorded on a

00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:07.599
digital recorder.

00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:09.920
If I had the choice, I would have a

00:04:09.920 --> 00:04:12.319
recorder that used a different format,

00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:14.640
but so be it. I can mark all these files

00:04:14.640 --> 00:04:16.160
and I can do EMMS

00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:20.000
add to .., and now they've been loaded

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:27.040
into a playlist.

00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:29.040
So you can see the playlist here. There's

00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:30.400
some leftover files.

00:04:30.400 --> 00:04:32.000
So I've got these three files in my

00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:33.759
playlist, and as you can see, it's just

00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:34.639
the file name,

00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:36.800
the path. I don't have any metadata

00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:38.560
associated with them.

00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:41.360
In this playlist, I can hit E,

00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:43.440
and it'll bring up a buffer showing

00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:47.360
the tag information that I have.

00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:49.840
I could edit these here.

00:04:49.840 --> 00:04:51.520
I could edit them one at a time, but that's

00:04:51.520 --> 00:04:53.919
not really great. I want superpower

00:04:53.919 --> 00:05:04.479
metadata authoring. So,

00:05:04.479 --> 00:05:07.680
by marking them, I can then hit E, and I

00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:10.479
have all three of the tracks loaded up in

00:05:10.479 --> 00:05:12.639
this tags buffer.

00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:15.759
On top of that, I can do EMMS

00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:18.800
tag editor, set all, C-c C-r,

00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:22.840
and I want to set the artist.

00:05:22.840 --> 00:05:25.680
so these are some recordings of my

00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:26.320
family.

00:05:26.320 --> 00:05:31.039
So, Shangreaux, set all three of them.

00:05:31.039 --> 00:05:35.600
I want to set the album:

00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:40.160
Spring Walk with Lap Harp.

00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:45.520
I want to set the year.

00:05:45.520 --> 00:05:48.960
And then I'm going to go ahead and put

00:05:48.960 --> 00:05:53.759
these in manually,

00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:55.840
but with the power of Emacs keyboard

00:05:55.840 --> 00:05:57.039
macros and

00:05:57.039 --> 00:05:59.600
registers and so on. I could do this

00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:02.319
programmatically as well,

00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:04.000
which would make it a lot easier if I

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:06.000
had much more than three files to

00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:07.440
do this with.

00:06:07.440 --> 00:06:09.919
Submit the changes with C-c C-c,

00:06:09.919 --> 00:06:11.520
and now we've got the playlist. You can

00:06:11.520 --> 00:06:13.120
see the artist and track number have

00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:15.039
been updated here.

00:06:15.039 --> 00:06:17.360
And then the final piece of this is that

00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:19.039
if you look at this, you can see that the

00:06:19.039 --> 00:06:20.479
file name is still the same.

00:06:20.479 --> 00:06:22.639
So if I were looking at the directory,

00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:24.560
I would still have this file name.

00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:26.479
When packaging these up for a release,

00:06:26.479 --> 00:06:28.000
for people to download,

00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:30.319
it's nice to be able to have that

00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:32.400
filename reflect the track number and the

00:06:32.400 --> 00:06:34.800
artist and so on. So there's another

00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:41.199
command, EMMS

00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:44.160
rename tag editor, rename, so it could be

00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:45.120
just capital R.

00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:47.199
I think I need to mark all of these, hit

00:06:47.199 --> 00:06:48.880
capital R, and then it's going to ask me

00:06:48.880 --> 00:06:50.000
to confirm

00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:54.400
and say yes to all of them.

00:06:54.400 --> 00:07:02.720
And now, if you look in the--

00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:04.319
whoops I have to update it--you'll see

00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:06.319
it's been updated with the artist,

00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:09.840
track number and

00:07:09.840 --> 00:07:11.120
track name.

00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:14.639
This format is a format string, so

00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:17.360
it's customizable of course.

00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:21.039
I just decided to go with the default.

00:07:21.039 --> 00:07:24.160
So that's pretty great, this workflow

00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:26.000
just with EMMS. I didn't have to do

00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.080
anything. This is all there. It's all

00:07:28.080 --> 00:07:30.960
built in. It gave me exactly what

00:07:30.960 --> 00:07:32.639
I was looking for in terms of being able

00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:35.599
to process a lot of raw audio files

00:07:35.599 --> 00:07:37.599
add metadata to them and get them ready

00:07:37.599 --> 00:07:39.280
for publishing.

00:07:39.280 --> 00:07:41.599
And this is for publishing for playback

00:07:41.599 --> 00:07:43.520
in any media player. It'll be

00:07:43.520 --> 00:07:46.560
useful. Not just for the web page that I'm

00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:48.479
building. So the

00:07:48.479 --> 00:07:50.560
final part, of course, is to build the

00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:54.960
web page. Emacs makes authoring HTML trivial.

00:07:54.960 --> 00:07:57.440
As I was going through this, I

00:07:57.440 --> 00:07:59.039
wanted to challenge myself and just be,

00:07:59.039 --> 00:08:00.400
like, can I do this

00:08:00.400 --> 00:08:03.520
just all with Emacs? Can I just make this?

00:08:03.520 --> 00:08:05.440
I don't need a... I don't need Ruby. I don't

00:08:05.440 --> 00:08:07.039
need Rails. I don't need Node. I don't

00:08:07.039 --> 00:08:08.960
need any of this other stuff. I have my

00:08:08.960 --> 00:08:10.560
tool right here. It's a fully...

00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:12.560
It's a whole operating system, basically,

00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:15.039
plus programming languages.

00:08:15.039 --> 00:08:17.360
So the first thing I started with was

00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:19.919
buffer scripting for manipulating text.

00:08:19.919 --> 00:08:22.560
That's kind of the easiest way to do it.

00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:24.319
Basically, anything you can do in a

00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:25.280
buffer, you can do

00:08:25.280 --> 00:08:28.479
programmatically with Elisp. So this

00:08:28.479 --> 00:08:30.319
might be a good example for beginners. If

00:08:30.319 --> 00:08:33.919
you haven't done any Elisp yet,

00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:36.000
a simple example is to create this

00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:36.959
this div

00:08:36.959 --> 00:08:40.000
output here. You

00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:41.760
can use this with-temp-buffer, so

00:08:41.760 --> 00:08:44.240
basically creating an imaginary buffer.

00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:46.640
insert is just like typing, so you put

00:08:46.640 --> 00:08:48.800
strings in, you put new lines in,

00:08:48.800 --> 00:08:50.959
you can build some strings together.

00:08:50.959 --> 00:08:52.080
Here you can see

00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:54.000
I'm doing a random number, so every time

00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:55.360
I execute this,

00:08:55.360 --> 00:08:57.920
my content changes. I can generate

00:08:57.920 --> 00:09:01.040
dynamic content in HTML blocks

00:09:01.040 --> 00:09:04.399
with Elisp. For my

00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:05.920
web page builder, It's a little more

00:09:05.920 --> 00:09:08.000
complex. I'm pulling data out

00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:12.080
using EMMS data structures,

00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:16.080
so it's pulling that out from the track data.

00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:19.440
And then I'm using some program to

00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:21.440
generate list elements, so each track is

00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:23.200
going to have the title

00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:25.120
and track number, and then a button for

00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:26.959
playing it, plus the source

00:09:26.959 --> 00:09:29.519
of the audio file, which will get added

00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:30.480
here.

00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:32.640
Right now, this is hard coded for Opus, so

00:09:32.640 --> 00:09:37.200
it won't work for my MP3s.

00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:39.120
I'm going to skip over snippets. Turns

00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:41.200
out format strings were good enough

00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:45.519
for me. Snippets could be useful, but

00:09:45.519 --> 00:09:48.160
format is super powerful, and I didn't

00:09:48.160 --> 00:09:49.839
really even need all that much power,

00:09:49.839 --> 00:09:51.279
basically, just doing string

00:09:51.279 --> 00:09:53.519
interpolation. So if you haven't seen

00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:54.560
format before,

00:09:54.560 --> 00:09:56.720
you basically put these control strings

00:09:56.720 --> 00:09:59.120
or control characters inside of a string,

00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:03.120
and you can generate an

00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:05.040
output string that you want.

00:10:05.040 --> 00:10:07.600
So in my generator code, basically, it's

00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:08.720
down here,

00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:10.959
I'm calling format with this Bard

00:10:10.959 --> 00:10:12.800
Bivou(m)acs template,

00:10:12.800 --> 00:10:15.920
and that's basically a big

00:10:15.920 --> 00:10:18.240
a big string of HTML. It's just

00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:21.200
my whole page of HTML

00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:22.959
with those control characters in just

00:10:22.959 --> 00:10:24.399
four places.

00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:26.399
One of them populates the track list.

00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:29.760
That's really the meat of the program.

00:10:29.760 --> 00:10:32.079
Again, this is a combination of using

00:10:32.079 --> 00:10:33.440
buffer scripting,

00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:37.279
using HTML mode, inserting text format strings,

00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:40.000
and then I can indent-region so the HTML

00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:41.920
actually looks pretty

00:10:41.920 --> 00:10:45.200
when it comes out of it as well.

00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:50.160
I will show that, just really quick

00:10:50.160 --> 00:10:54.000
actually.

00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:56.880
So you can see, this is the HTML that got

00:10:56.880 --> 00:10:58.800
generated. I've got my template.

00:10:58.800 --> 00:11:02.560
I inserted the title here, the style, the

00:11:02.560 --> 00:11:05.760
font was all inserted,

00:11:05.760 --> 00:11:07.920
and then this whole list of of tracks here.

00:11:07.920 --> 00:11:11.200
It's kind of messy to look at,

00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:14.399
but this track list, this whole div here,

00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:15.920
is all generated by

00:11:15.920 --> 00:11:22.480
my generator code, and it works. It's great.

00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:27.120
Okay, moving on.

00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:30.240
So the other thing was that as I was

00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:32.079
developing this, I decided to use

00:11:32.079 --> 00:11:33.200
Org Babel and some of his

00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:35.360
its features for multi-language

00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:36.880
things because I needed to style it with

00:11:36.880 --> 00:11:37.839
CSS and

00:11:37.839 --> 00:11:40.480
and put actions in Javascript, and also I

00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:42.480
used SVG for authoring stuff.

00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:46.079
It was a little bit complicated.

00:11:46.079 --> 00:11:47.680
It probably would have been simpler had I

00:11:47.680 --> 00:11:49.600
not used Org Babel, but it's also really

00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:51.440
fun. I think it's a cool,

00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:53.839
cool idea to use literate programming. My

00:11:53.839 --> 00:11:55.839
idea was to create HTML

00:11:55.839 --> 00:11:59.519
components. I could name it like this,

00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:01.440
put a format string inside it, and build

00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:02.800
a function

00:12:02.800 --> 00:12:05.519
in Elisp to format it and spit out the

00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:07.120
HTML that I want.

00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:10.320
By doing this, then, I can

00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:12.880
just change things in my Org file which,

00:12:12.880 --> 00:12:14.320
not getting a whole lot of time to work

00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:16.959
on it, I can come back to it and

00:12:16.959 --> 00:12:19.839
I have a lot of notes. I can

00:12:19.839 --> 00:12:21.920
kind of generate things as I'm going and

00:12:21.920 --> 00:12:24.399
keep notes for myself, and keep the...

00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:25.600
I don't know. It's cool. Literate

00:12:25.600 --> 00:12:27.519
programming is fun. So I don't need to

00:12:27.519 --> 00:12:29.279
go into that too much, but you can see if

00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:31.040
I execute this here,

00:12:31.040 --> 00:12:33.360
I get the the div that I want. It's a

00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:34.880
little bit funny. You'll see I have the

00:12:34.880 --> 00:12:36.480
string like this, the way that

00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:39.200
noweb expands, I can't do this on a

00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:40.000
single line.

00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:43.839
It looks funny when you do that,

00:12:43.839 --> 00:12:45.440
so that might be something to work out

00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:48.959
later. CSS blocks can either be tangled out

00:12:48.959 --> 00:12:52.639
and referenced in the HTML source or inlined.

00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:54.639
Here's an example I have of inlining it.

00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:56.959
So I've got my little CSS block named

00:12:56.959 --> 00:13:00.320
style, Javascript named script,

00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:03.040
and then I've got this HTML source block

00:13:03.040 --> 00:13:04.839
with noweb expansion.

00:13:04.839 --> 00:13:07.920
These double angle brackets here

00:13:07.920 --> 00:13:09.839
are where I'm going to expand the block

00:13:09.839 --> 00:13:12.639
named style. I'm actually calling a function,

00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:14.399
so I want the result of the function

00:13:14.399 --> 00:13:17.040
here, and then the script will just get

00:13:17.040 --> 00:13:22.959
expanded here. So org-babel-expand-src-block,

00:13:22.959 --> 00:13:25.360
you can see what it looks like.

00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:28.160
I've got my style here. I've got my title.

00:13:28.160 --> 00:13:29.920
I've got that main content class

00:13:29.920 --> 00:13:31.279
I showed before,

00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:34.480
and the script as well. So that's kind of cool.

00:13:34.480 --> 00:13:36.320
I could just run org-babel-tangle and

00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:38.160
get my thing out and just

00:13:38.160 --> 00:13:40.480
edit one file instead of multiple files.

00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:41.600
Not for everyone,

00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:45.839
but I thought it was kind of fun.

00:13:45.839 --> 00:13:47.760
All right. Oh, and the final thing is that

00:13:47.760 --> 00:13:49.199
in Emacs, you can

00:13:49.199 --> 00:13:52.880
author and view SVG. So this is just an

00:13:52.880 --> 00:13:57.199
Org. This SVG, I used to make the play

00:13:57.199 --> 00:13:59.519
and pause buttons. I didn't know this,

00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:02.800
but if you edit an SVG file, you can

00:14:02.800 --> 00:14:08.800
toggle back and forth

00:14:08.800 --> 00:14:13.199
between the code and the image.

00:14:13.199 --> 00:14:17.360
It's pretty sweet. So I can iteratively

00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:19.680
work through this because of how

00:14:19.680 --> 00:14:20.560
Emacs is.

00:14:20.560 --> 00:14:24.959
Final considerations here,

00:14:24.959 --> 00:14:27.360
like when doing this, I want it to be all

00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:29.279
free, so I want to use fonts that use a

00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:30.079
free license.

00:14:30.079 --> 00:14:32.800
I found GNU Unifont. It's kind of cool.

00:14:32.800 --> 00:14:34.800
The content license... I chose

00:14:34.800 --> 00:14:37.600
Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike,

00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:39.920
which is kind of like the GPL.

00:14:39.920 --> 00:14:42.880
Ideally, I could serve it with Emacs. I'd

00:14:42.880 --> 00:14:44.800
like to remove idiosyncrasy so other

00:14:44.800 --> 00:14:46.320
people can use it.

00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:48.720
It's pretty much just my tool right now.

00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:51.040
Not requiring the web browser... I can

00:14:51.040 --> 00:14:54.079
ship playlists so that you can just

00:14:54.079 --> 00:14:58.000
click or link to a playlist on your favorite

00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:00.639
player, even EMMS if you want, and then

00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:02.639
packing up those albums in like a ZIP or

00:15:02.639 --> 00:15:04.320
.tar file.

00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:08.639
So you can go to churls.world .

00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:10.880
It just has a link to this album. I'll

00:15:10.880 --> 00:15:14.000
display it here in just a second.

00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:17.519
You can contact me. I'm shoshin on #emacs

00:15:17.519 --> 00:15:21.040
in IRC and on sourcehut. You can email me

00:15:21.040 --> 00:15:23.680
grant@churls.world, personal, or

00:15:23.680 --> 00:15:26.800
grant@unabridgedsoftware.com. All right, now.

00:15:26.800 --> 00:15:32.079
Let's see about this...

00:15:32.079 --> 00:15:33.680
This is up online, so if you want to

00:15:33.680 --> 00:15:35.120
listen to my

00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:39.199
college band's album from 20 years ago,

00:15:39.199 --> 00:15:43.040
here it is: Cassiopeia Basement Days.

00:15:43.040 --> 00:15:47.680
Whoops. I made this art in Krita. You can

00:15:47.680 --> 00:15:51.199
press play. You can skip around.

00:15:51.199 --> 00:15:55.040
I do have the playlist up here too.

00:15:55.040 --> 00:15:58.560
So yeah, thanks for listening.

00:15:58.560 --> 00:16:00.880
I hope you enjoyed it, and enjoy the rest

00:16:00.880 --> 00:16:07.360
of EmacsConf. Goodbye!
