It's always amazing to me how many people there are who either just don't like music, or who like it in a way (e.g background noise) that dislocates it from any sort of meaningful cultural exchange with the people who make it. This is just a new form of that phenomenon.

I don't have many followers here, but for those of you doing qualitative work on transcripts I cannot recommend Zotero enough. Just import your file as a .pdf and you can highlight, annotate, tag, and make connections between transcripts. Took me a long time to find something that works so well!

Any Macbook users on here experiencing issues with MS Word/Powerpoint? My Word files are now read-only (as of today), which is a little frustrating as I've been working on these for months, and need to keep adding and refining things most days! My Macbook is 2017 - so old but working grand

Irish government outs itself as mugs. Again. Regulate the algorithms. These are not natural disasters or acts of god, they are social media companies; deliberately designed products by people with specific intentions. You don't keep people safe by keeping them out, you regulate the fucking product

Nearly there with the interviews - thanks to all who shared this already. Hoping for a final push to recruit one or two more participants. The findings so far have been really interesting - will share more when progress with the analysis.

It was a pleasure sharing my research on DJs experiences of performance anxiety at Better Days in Turin over the weekend. The event was attended by DJs, dancers, and people who were curious about the psychology of performance anxiety, both on and off the dancefloor.

Dave Moloney @davetothegrave.bsky.social · 01/12/2025

Happening this weekend - really looking forward to discussing the psychology of the dancefloor, from DJs' experiences of performance anxiety behind the decks, to collective identity on the dancefloor, plus the historical importance of inclusive dance spaces for people from marginalised communities

I had a look at a press release about job cuts from a nearby large university . I was struck by how each paragraph started off positively but then lapsed into treacly platitudes. So I thought I'd help them out with their argument structure.

Qualitative research isn't a consolation prize for when we can't get 'real' numbers. It's a different way of knowing; one that captures complexity, context, and meaning that statistics alone cannot provide.
