Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I love these absurd headlines. A Wiltshire paper telling - its presumably largely Wiltshire audience - about a seaside town 4 hours away. I know Wiltshire can feel remote. But I think almost ANY place in England is within 4 hours of the county. 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Beautiful day on the beach yesterday. New Brighton, Wirral. Set to a live synth jam thing. More from Coop' soon. In the meantime, support @moolakiiclubai.bsky.social and other purveyors of the Dreamworld. 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 02/10/2026No #Bandcampfriday specials this time, as we're applying the delicate finishing touches to a new collaboration with an amazing artist. More soon. In the meantime, here's something buzzy. 010
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 27/09/2026The Wirral is one of England's haunted edge spaces: a revenant viking outpost and a liminal littoral of creeping dunes. Listen to the music of the tides. 010
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 15/09/2026What if the future had never been something to be afraid of? 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 12/09/2026The UB-XA is Coop's workhorse polysynth. Usually heard glistening like a C-beam amid the chaos of bassier monos and warbling string machines and vocoders. 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Metal Shiva is a @hookland.bsky.social inspired meditation at harmonic intervals of 50Hz. 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Offer applies to cheapo Wednesday and every other day of the week too. 000

Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Alpha (dir Julia Ducournau, France 2025) got some shockingly poor reviews. But I really don't see what's wrong with it. Great performances to a script that's maybe slightly heavy on the metaphor. But you know, art. 011
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 14/07/2026We live in the age of tautology. Thus I alight at my destination - the "last and final" stop of my journey - some "twenty nine, two nine" minutes late. 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Add to that the weight of evidence? The dam breaks eventually. 100
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 10/07/2026I increasingly think that part of the AI hype is simply coasting on tools like XLS. 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 10/07/2026There's a sponsored AI puff piece on X where a guy relates how in a davos style meet if CEOs all were waxing lyrical re AI transforming their businesses. When asked how, 8/10 described something that was not AI, but simple process optimization. 200
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Your book is a paradigm-shifting masterwork that synergistically addresses the intersection of holistic methodologies & fundamental paradigm shifts. It is not just about technology itself, but rather a profound exploration of the human condition in the digital epoch. Keep leveraging those synergies! 110
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Strong Penda's Fen vibes here. "Pin-vin. You've spelt it wrong..." 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 01/05/2026Happy May Day, Beltane & Bandcamp Friday.

Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Hmm. One wonders if the whole notion of a spectrum, regardless of the number of axes, remains relevant in these days of pick&mix ideology? Perhaps the days of a functional (or at least predictable) representative democracy are numbered and the future is far more direct and single issue? 010
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 22/04/2026That distribution appears to rely on contributing effects "acting additively and independently". It is (it sez 'ere) not valid if effects act multiplicatively or if there's one effect with a disproportionately larger contribution than others. Do they? Is there one? 200

Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 13/03/2026Ah well: enshittification is a feature, not a bug. 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 13/03/2026But - unfortunately? - in the AI/LLM use case, it does kinda mimic "good" human behaviour: "show you're listening by paraphrasing playback and asking follow up questions". But you're probably only ever 3 yes clicks away from it suggesting something unhinged. 100
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 13/03/2026That's in the gamified, dopamine-targeting UI/UX though. It's always ready with a follow-up suggestion ("would you like me to..."). The problem is that this kind of engagement engineering is internet 101 by now and an alternative design almost completely unthinkable. The rabbit holes are pre-dug. 101

Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 01/03/2026I've always loved that Roger Deakins look to a film. This makes it yet more gratifying to learn that his career is - in part at least - an extended enquiry into how many 60w domestic lightbulbs can be wired in series to light a scene (answer: so many!). Art meets craft meets making-do. My kinda guy. 000
Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 27/02/2026The wonderful @moolakiiclubai.bsky.social's latest zine ('MCPM018') gets a big thumbs up from ex-NME & Melody Maker electronic music aficionado Neil Mason at open.substack.com/pub/moonbuil....

Cooper Vane @immanenteschaton.bsky.social · 08/02/2026'Gerard built a space motel' is the latest Cooper Vane release. It's a bit of sci-fi whimsy set in the far south-west of Ireland and features the line "little greys are welcome here". coopervane.bandcamp.comcoopervane.bandcamp.comCooper VaneCooper makes music about places and memory. He uses guitars, bass guitars and analogue synthesis. In listening mode, he spins some Radiohead, The Police, Boards of Canada, Portico Quartet and Mammal Hands. 110
