You know I've played around with social media in the past, and Instagram is the only one that I've stuck with for any amount of time. I was about to leave that too when suddenly David Torn and Terry Riley followed me, so I felt I had to keep going.
I like a lot of the things I did to get back in the game creating little things especially for Instagram (I've collected a few of them on YouTube as ASF (Ambient Short Form) series. But I don't always like making videos so gradually I've done less and more clips pointing people to other places (mainly here now).
I'm not going to delete Instagram, but I might reduce the amount I use it - partly because like most social media, I can see more and more how you become product, how it can take time away from things I feel are more important.
I might go back to Mastodon, or other decentralised networks. But that would be on the basis of talking to people, not using it as a marketing tool. And I don't always want to be particularly social so it might not be the best place in general for me. I like making music, I like live interaction, and I like having a central place of my own to put things.
So over time I might shift to here almost exclusively or find a way to do more live things, perhaps record them or broadcast them through something like PeerTube. Much to think about and discus.
