Nah, your current role as advisor, coach, cheerleader, and psych buddy will suffice. (And I don't have to pay you for that)

Addie! I am sad that I missed your presentation! I was a fellow presenter and didn't realise you were presenting. DOH! Even as an online attendee, it was a top-tier conference

Delighted to be here at the Uni of Jyvaskyla for #musiconnex - after a welcome from Suvi Saarikallio, it was over to Katrina McFerrin for an excellent, thought-provoking, and entertaining keynote. What a great start!! #phdlife #musicscience #conference #psychscisky

Loved presenting our research on music and social identities, co-authored with @studylistening.bsky.social, at #MUSICCONNEX. We explored how people position themselves within or outside of the “wider music community” And my red bow tie received positive peer review 🎀 #MusicScience #MusicPsychSky

Don't get me wrong, I am glad the audience was so appreciative that they clapped during the credits, but part of me wanted to just enjoy the music haha

Anthony Moles @anthonymoles.bsky.social · 15/03/2026
Magical is the right word. Any highlights? It was majestic when the choir first entered - I did get the feels I thought it was very clever not to begin with the main theme I loved that they did the main theme again for the "credits".

I'm impressed that you can write to such a dramatic score. But hey, battling writing can be as difficult as battling Malenia!

After hundreds of hours playing #EldenRing, hearing the score live at the Opera House was a thrill. The #Sydney Symphony #Orchestra, Sydney Philharmonia #Choirs, and conductor Benjamin Northley were in fine form. ​The first moment the choir sang was magical. #LiveMusic #Gaming #VideoGames

I'll likely come back, especially if/when they release more content. But I won't wield my bow again for some months indeed.

Anthony Moles @anthonymoles.bsky.social · 18/02/2026
Thank you! I got to depth 4 by playing quite a few depth 5 games, so it was nice to know I could hold my own at that depth. Given that the Nr gameplay loop is addictive af, and I have a big project starting, it's time for Ironeye to hang up his quiver.

Hello, Bluesky! 👋 It’s been quite a while since I last posted, but I’m going to make a bit more of an effort. Christmas and New Year were hectic, but I’ve got a few things from that stretch to share. Also — I’m looking forward to catching up on the wonderful world of #musicscience !!!

Wild! (Or shoulder that be Wyld!) Have you ever hit 9999? A potential future goal?

Anthony Moles @anthonymoles.bsky.social · 18/02/2026
I achieved my goal: hitting depth 5 in #EldenRing #Nightreign "ranked mode" #deepofnight According to stats published 1.12.25, depth 5 is the top 3% of players globally. It was hard work, as I'm not a mechanically skilled gamer (hello millennial generation reaction times!) #gaming #videogames

Did you see the stats they released a while back? At the time depth 5 was the top 3% of players

Anthony Moles @anthonymoles.bsky.social · 18/02/2026
When I got ed Balancers at depths 4-5, my thoughts were "This is pretty much a guaranteed loss". The frequency of getting them since the patch has decreased tho right?

Anthony Moles @anthonymoles.bsky.social · 18/02/2026
My challenge was also to hit D5, and did it yest! Grats to us!

The Shape of Dreams demo is killer! It uses MOBA controls, and this rogue-like has similarities to Hades and Path of Exile, but I'm finding myself enjoying it even more. The large and satisfying demo has me ready for the full game release on Sept 11! #shapeofdreams #gaming #videogames
