yesterday I livestreamed, on a lark, for the first time. 90 minutes later, we signed off at 21 attendees— blackjack! if you missed it, here’s the replay plus chocolate sprinkles (timestamps below) this session’s a stream-of-consciousness, exploring a theme from various angles. the farthest departure from the causeway: 56:20 other diversions at: 12:15 … 16:38 … 24:00 … 27:50 … 29:50 … 34:50 … 37:40 … 40:55 … 42:20 … 51:00 … 56:20 … 1:14:00 … 1:19:00 if you’re down for more live music sessions, hoist a pirate flag in the comments — and drop what day/timezone you’re often around: I can then coordinate with your here-and-now-ness! much love.

@zigmarillion beautiful work Z !

⚡️This “professor “ asking “where are the servers” in 2026 is like a medieval cartographer asking where the edge of the earth is in 1520. The question reveals that the person asking it hasn’t updated their model of reality despite overwhelming evidence that the old model is wrong. Bitcoin has been running for seventeen years. It has survived the shutdown of Silk Road, the collapse of Mt. Gox, a Chinese mining ban, multiple 80% drawdowns, regulatory assault from every major government, and active hostility from the entire traditional financial system. If the CIA built it they built the most resilient piece of infrastructure in human history and then let it be attacked repeatedly by other arms of the same government. That doesn’t hold up for five seconds under basic scrutiny. But the CIA theory isn’t really about the CIA. It’s about the desperate need to locate an authority behind the thing. Because if there’s no authority then every assumption about how power works, how money works, how systems work, comes into question. And for someone whose entire career and status and identity is built on understanding how systems work, that’s not an intellectual problem. That’s an existential one. The real thing happening in that clip is a man protecting his worldview in real time. The question “where are the servers” isn’t curiosity. It’s defense. If the servers can be located then the system can be understood within his framework. If they can’t be located then his framework is incomplete. And admitting your framework is incomplete when your framework is your career is something almost nobody will do voluntarily. This is why Bitcoin adoption follows generational lines more than intelligence lines. It’s not that older people are dumber. It’s that they have more invested in the existing model. Decades of career. Status built on expertise within the current system. Reputation staked on understanding how things work. Bitcoin doesn’t ask them to learn something new. It asks them to accept that something they spent their life mastering is being replaced. That’s a fundamentally different ask. Learning is easy. Unlearning is almost impossible when your identity is built on what you know. The “where are the servers” question will be studied in the future the way we study people who rejected the heliocentric model. Not as stupidity but as a perfect example of how paradigm resistance works in practice. The evidence was available. The system was running. The proof was on the blockchain for anyone to verify. And he looked at all of it and said “but where is the building.” There is no building. There was never going to be a building. The entire point is that there is no building. And the people who need a building to believe something is real are going to be the last people on earth to understand what happened. By the time they get it, it will have already restructured the global financial system around them. They’ll be standing in the rubble of the old model still asking where the servers are while the new one runs on sixty thousand nodes they never bothered to look at.

Up next this year… New York Chicago Mexico City And San Francisco.

I’ve been working on a secret art project for Radiohead over the last year. 8,000 fragments and ephemera from the Kid A and Amnesiac recording sessions, transformed into a an audio-visual cinema installation called “Motion Picture House.”We just launched in a bunker built 30 ft underground at Coachella, then will be going on tour for next year. It’s hard to put into words what it’s been like to work with your childhood heroes. As the credits rolled with my name included, I felt a myriad of emotions but mostly gratitude for the strange loops in our lives that (ideally) return us to ourselves again and again. I deeply recall the teenage me standing in the pouring rain at their concert at Merriweather Pavilion. My mom had packed me a to-go container of spaghetti (odd choice, I know) and I stood in the rain and ate spaghetti and let myself feel something. That’s what this experience means to me and what I hope this will be for those who attend: permission to connect to the parts of yourself that aren’t quite sure where things have all landed or where they might be going.
