"Time Has Come, the Walrus Said..." by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

I am the Rambling Man... I appear and I ramble. I am a stranger, everywhere I go, and I bring hidden knowledge, but few people listen... I leave when crowds gather...

Ramblin' ramblin' ramblin'...

EXPERIMENTS in VOICE TO TEXT...

First app:

"Experiments in audio recording this is exactly what I was hoping for it looks like it's missing some of my words well maybe not missing yeah missing so what I want is one that can get noises like this one doesn't"

Interesting...

Second experiment in VOICE TO TEXT... (Different app...)

"Once upon a time I tried to figure out if this would work will it work let's see if it does this ooh it doesn't it does not recognise my woo-woo Woo my Woo oh that time it did I wonder why it doesn't sometimes Woo hahaha good OK I'm happy with this so this is much more fun I wonder if it's actually recording the audio too I hope not I'll just erase the audio Just want the text just want the text cool"

Okay. I have now tested a couple of different apps and found one that will work for my purposes. What you read below is a speech-to-text transcription of a chat I had with myself (with a cat nearby who wanted to be involved, but I don't think he's qualified to discuss art theory or archiving techniques...)

"How do friends my name is Richard F yeit's [!?!? YATES, not "yeit's" Jeeze] that's supposed to be howdy friends howdy howdy howdy howdy howdy so this is me talking to a machine and the machine is typing what it thinks I am saying and either I have an accent or the machine has hearing difficulties either way this is fun and interesting see one of the things that I'd like to do I wonder if I can do a paragraph break your paragraph break 1 of the things that I like to do is ramble and the rambling man that's my other name ramble ramble ramble Through different concepts and I thought it would be fun to be able to do this out loud I can just sit and talk to myself because there's not a whole lot of people around here and the cats don't ever talk back very well they just say meow and that's never that fun so the whole point here is I got this new blog is not a blog it's a website and I'm also thinking about starting my own little like invisible pirate website based on Kenneth Goldsmith's book du champ is my lawyer where he wrote his own code his html code for a website basically everything about the website he can hold on a little you know terabyte hard drive so I could do that because I've got No couple things around here I could hide my hide hold my files on a little portable I have a couple of different either terabytes or you know close to terabyte files and then I could keep them with me and then put them up on various sites whenever I need Ed to get the website roll in that way the whole point is I like to archive I like to make things and archive things and do all kinds of fun stuff like that but it's a pain in the ass to keep doing it over and over again on different sites you may have used Blogger I use word press that used steam used hive of used shoot lo I've used cash so many different sites and they all come and they all go and it's not like an mp3.com I had stuff up on that and myspace.com in Facebook and in all of these Instagram Twitter have all of these different attempts I've made to connect with people electronically and when I moved to a new site all that old stuff just seemed to either sit there or disintegrate I can't tell which it slowly folds into the background a minute you can maybe still find it if you dig but who's going to dig there's so much new stuff That people don't really need to dig you know the way back machines are great idea but unless you're looking for something specific who's going to use that so I thought a new website would be cool basically just to archive my stuff all-in-one place and I can still spread it around all these different places so that people have a chance to see it but those would be more of the satellite connections and not the main hub not the primary arc archive and I've got a thousands and thousands of images and hundreds and hundreds of your different writing projects poems and short stories and weird philosophical concepts and You know manifesto's and all this stuff and it's all floating around nebulously unconnected and I would like to find some way to ring that all together and have a base for it and you know I have a house right now where people wanted to they could come in and read what I have written down but a lot of it is stuff directly written onto the Web so be nice to have a backup it'd be nice to have an archive and then also a central hub that I can send stuff out from seeing all these different NF t's on different sites maker's place and ocean was an open sea an NFT show Room and hick at nunk [Hic et Nunc] And I know the tazos [tezos] chain I've got stuff everywhere but it would be nice to have it all linked all together in one easily accessible place and by easily accessible I mean 1 place easily accessible by me so that I can add to it and you know moulded and everything like that with the way I want to do it that seems like a positive thing to do and then I can have a link and then spread my connection my link to that link everywhere on all the you know high and all the other places where I were at your business so at the whole point would be I need a central hub I need a solid core where I can start burying this stuff in a way that it's not going to get so lost that's my plan let's see if this..."

Probably not as readable as people are used to! Ha! Good. Sometimes, you have to work for it to appreciate it. (Hunting for a long lost record or comic book is much more exciting than just clicking on eBay and having it mailed to you...for too much money...)

I'll ramble more later. I enjoy a good ramble...
