Medieval hurdy-gurdy music is amazing
Good morning!
Lost Voices of Hagia Sofia
The sound of 500 year old choral music in the Hagia Sofia.
“Lost Voices of Hagia Sophia” is the first vocal album in the world to be recorded entirely in live virtual acoustics. It brings together art history, music history, performance, and technology to re-create medieval sacred sound in the cathedral of Hagia Sophia as an aural virtual reality.“
Found via this excellent write-up by Kottke.
Medieval Meme
An amazing meme with an ensuing education on blades. Yet another example of the comments used for lawful good on Tumblr. I’m not naive enough to think there aren’t toxic shitheads out there in the Tumblerverse, but I’ve managed to miss them so far and it feels nice.
There’s still porn on Tumblr.
Foodporn, Earthporn, Historyporn All my favorite porns in one glorious tumblr.
