what paul said when i asked how to tell a pal what he does "in Computer Language" (in 2023)
(btw paul, promise i did not plan on making this page when i asked!!!)
[3:56 AM, 9/15/2023] paul feitzinger: I guess I'd say I used to be more of a programming language nerd but lately I'd been doing mostly python and typescript for stuff that mostly dealt with natural language processing
[3:57 AM, 9/15/2023] paul feitzinger: and Supercollider and stuff for audio synthesis
what it says about paul on the "about" page (in 2025)
"first mention to paul feitzinger (he's not Publicly Online so link's to my loving troll /PAUL page), percussionist / pal / linguistics research scientist / ham radio operator / light artist / Bike + Computer Person! his ~biggest contribution~ was the original top-of-site calendars; if you wanna see how annoying the site was before, head to october 2018 & check out the lineup for the 10/25/18 liturgy opera—but actually DON'T, just try & then give up bc there are hundreds of events & no shortcuts to individual dates ahhh!!
"i met paul in either 2017 or 2018, & for 5 years (2018-2023), paul was the only other person with a password to make updates, so whenever i f*cked something up (say i'm somewhere with terrible wifi & try to update the site anyway & it blanks out half the calendar at 2am & my connection is SO bad that i can't maintain it long enough to even load an earlier version from the revision history??? is a thing that happened june 1 '23), paul is who i frantically texted asking if he could plz fix it!! :D he also made me listing-specific tools for stuff that annoyed the hell out of me to reformat (like those insanely long BPH marathons lolol)... more recently he also made the new submission form which saves me a BUNCH of work by formatting stuff for approval yayyy!!!"
a few shows paul's played that turned up when i searched nyc noise, prefaced by rambling
did u forget that all the listings used to be TEAL??? & then during pandemic i switched to livestreams, & then i started making in-person listings the darker color to differentiate them (cuz for ages there were only a few!), & then over time i began associating "teal" with both "online" & also more broadly ~accessible,~ like outside events, & that is the unnecessary/boring story of why access-related text is teal & listings are not!!!, the end

tiny text by tony says "not to be confused with (tho similar ~genre~)"
alt text: pic of 3 Pals –– tony, paul, & jeff –– sitting on the roof of a building, though you can't tell it's a roof from the picture; they're on a step or ledge in front of a stained metal door & more brick, some red & some covered in tar or something. tony's on the left, & like paul he's slender & white in a black tee & they both have this like Extremely Voluminous curly brown hair & are even both wearing thin-framed glasses in this pic lolol, hence my Genre commend; jeff is more close-shorn & tank top'd (SUMMER)
