30 Years+ Time Warp
We are time travelling capsules hurtling through this existence.
Everyday is propelling us forwards.
Our status is always - The Present - in our rearview mirror is - The Past.
I've known @klinchex in a previous form of myself, back in the late 70's and 80's, during our junior school years.
The problem with Time Travel, is the memories become fragments.
Little snippets of moments, like photographs and small, GIF-like flashes of images in my distored memory banks.
I remember @klinchex learning guitar back at high school.
You know that cool teacher that inspires a group of youths to take up an interest in music, not formally, but band like? Well we were lucky to have such a teaher at our school.
Fortunately, with modern Social Media, you can reconnect with people from our former lives.
Since joining @risingstargame, I've really enjoyed trying out the different parts of the game.
Having Staked on Records for a little while now, I felt compelled to introduce a willing participant (victim) into the HIVE/HIVE GAMING/RISINGSTAR World.
Zero Hesitation
@klinchex was straight away with a, "Yes", when I asked him if he was interested.
He had/has no clue as to what I had in mind.
I felt honoured that he has enough trust in me to give it a go.
So, it put me in the driving seat to then work out the "How's"
I used Audacity to make both, a good copy and a 30 second sample, of his song, "Warrior".
Thanks to Everybody
I'll have to slip in a thank you to all of the people I interact with.
Not just for this little effort, but with all of the Community.
Support, @atomcollector, @stickupboys, @sharmanhd, @monsterjamgold, @cscable, @windail1, @theturtleproject, @hhguild, @brofund .. and all of the Twitch show regulars!
Pricing
I'm not sure on Pricing.
I want to give @klinchex some value for his creation, while also, not making it ridiculous for the Community.
So, I've set a range of different prices.
I'd be happy to receive some feedback on what is "fair & reasonable".
As I see @stickupboys provide sexy pricing at 2 LGN, whereas, others have much higher pricing.
I'd like to think at it from a mid-to-long term perspective.
My motivation is to bring a newbie into the HIVE ecosystem & to see it as more than just a Crypto thing.
What a Resource!
The concept of this magnificent game is mind blowing.
You play a musician trying to make a career and become a Star!
How amazing!
You have the game, NFTS, RadioStation, Crypto, Side Games, Crafting, Battles, just layers, and layers of beautiful HIVE Ecosystem.
Hive Keychain App
As @klinchex was trying to log on via his mobile, I'd not used the HIVE KEYCHAIN App, so this was another mind blower for me.
That APP has it's own Browser built in & enables me to log in & run a mission, or other Hive Game, or Post, with ease.
Face To Face
Ends up we live nearby each other.
We plan to meet on Sunday for a coffee catchup.
That way, I can finally get him onto HIVE fully, & show him some of the cool features of being part of the Community.
He also doesn't know what Discord is - another rabbit hole for him to fall into, maybe.
Inspiring
It is very motivating for me to immerse myself further into HIVE & Rising Star.
There are still features of the game that I am yet to try.
OGs like @clove71 are constantly partaking in this wonderful space.
I'd also like to bring in other artists, perhaps, we can inspire some collaboration between Hive musicians (I know, I know, I am late to the party as many of you have been doing so since 2016!)
This must be what it feels like to be ethereal.
We are Ethereal Beings, existing side-by-side the "mainstream" folk, just a breath away from them seeing a whole new dimension of Value & Community.
Rock On!
