Thanks to @Geyser and @The Bitcoin Conference for making these sketches happen, Carlos approached me out of the wild! So greatful to provide some value!
I want to make a personal comparison analogy to dance and Nashville 2024:
Brazilian Zouk and Forró are both couple dances. Both start with the left foot and have a pause in the rhythm. They share a leader-follower role and the rhythm pattern 1,2,3,pause,5,6,7,pause.
Differences:
- In Forró, the 3 and 7 go together with the pause. In Zouk, the 5 and 1 go together with the pause.
- Forró is played with triangle, drum, and accordion, while Zouk is DJ-driven with all kinds of fitting music.
- Forró communities are mostly Brazilian or people who want to speak Portuguese. Zouk is an internationally mixed environment.
- Forró starts with the follower stepping back; Zouk starts with the follower stepping forward.
- In Forró, you dance at most 5 songs together; in Zouk, some people dance together for hours.
- Forró can be chaotic, sometimes rough with push-pull movements; Zouk is about flow and connection.
- Forró is easy to learn, attracting many beginners who stick to one dance; Zouk is harder to master, often drawing people who know other dances.
While Forró and Zouk have commonalities, dancing together with each style can be fun and interesting initially. However, to get into the flow of the dance, you need to stick to familiarities, come together, and create something stronger and more beautiful. It's important to have these fundamentals working to create magic.
At Nashville 2024, I felt like dancing Zouk, but many people danced Forró. While I know Forró, I wanted to dance Zouk, and there were only a few Zouk dancers. The dances with these few were amazing! The Forró people were happily dancing together though.
Every dance starts with not knowing who you're dancing with until you give different signals and test each other out.
That can result I great dances, and sometimes in disappointments, when the dance partner is not capable of adjusting to create synergy.
Overall, I still thank you, Nashville. I'm sure it's a places that's needed for people who start out with Forró, and eventually come to Zouk.
Oh, btw, and if you ever need a fantastic Zouk teacher in Thailand, reach out to @Angy. She accepts Lightning as well!
Life is good, seek people around yourself that inspire you in all different domains. I am truly grateful that I can experience human consciousness and can manipulate it in a way to feel purposeful, while helping out the inhabitants of this tiny rock that flies through space.
It it's vast cold nothingness there is a tiny port of hope, that we as a species can cherrish and appreciate. It is all what each individual makes of it, and like a gigantic hivemind, we are all connected and aim for a single straight target, whatever it actually might be.
Thank you, that we can experience this universe in all of it's dimensions.
Working on a biiiiiig piece of @Max talking on the What is Money show about Rothbard and his grounding breaking philosophy.
I am so grateful that I am able to witness these amazing insights of philosophy of human kind!
It is a hard piece to make, but i want to add the cypherpunk series, it should be finished after that!
You do amazing work, Max and I look forward to any future series!
I am selling my first art piece soon, and the premise is set that I will be #donating 51%, 510000 satoshis to #bitcoin open source development. What are some good companies/NGOs in Bitcoin, that allocate their funds the best? @OpenSats seems to be good, and I think the money will be sent their way. Are there any other ones? I guess diversification in that sense might be good?
Thank you!

#learn #BTC #sketch #opensource #mining #firmwareI've been managing to get up quite early these days, since I've switched my phone to an eink phone.
I have always considered myself as a nightowl, however, I've been looking at screen before going to bed since 2007, maybe that was a reason for an unnatural cycle?
It's all about grounding myself to mother earth now and go more with it's rhythm. Also with other things like food. Going well so far, I think
I am thinking of doing #water only fasting for the next 72 hours, any Tipps? Longest i have gone were 40.

Just paid my lunch with #lightning through a merchant that uses some type of QR codes and also offers invoices in that form.
Took 30 secs to confirm though
I want to sell Sketches that I do about #bitcoin podcasts, are there any good ways to sell if with lightning etc, so that people are able to receive the physical thing for it and/or posters. Obviously #shopify but any food lightning network or Bitcoin solutions out there?
and saw your messages(though encrypted) is that normal on #nostr ?
