FanonRadio Marathon; 10 days left to apply for a radio show! 📻💗

Media fans! We are looking for your radio show proposals, to launch Fanon Radio with a grand celebration! The goal is to fill 24 hours with a schedule of live broadcasts by media fans.

Date & time: 4th of July, 10:00 AM CEST

Broadcasting location: In person (Rotterdam, NL) & remote (fanon.radio)

What we are looking for

As transformative fans, you are invited to host your own shows, to share your experiences in fan circles, experiment with alternative ways of creating fan projects and build meaningful connections. Don't know how you could contribute to the project? Here are some ideas to get you inspired! Be as open, fun, weird and experimental as you want!

Talk about a fan event or project you're organizing; document one from the past.

Host a discussion about fandom practices and community meta.

Perform your favourite work of fanfiction live, instead of recording a podfic.

Turn fanfiction into a tabletop roleplaying session with your friends. One takes the role of the "ficmaster" and the players portray media characters.

Curate a filk song playlist

Interview your fan artist friends on their craft

!!! Now accepting PRE-RECORDED proposals !!!

The 4th of July is a busy day for many, we wouldn't want that to deter you from joining the project!

FULL OPEN CALL / UNTIL 10/06

i have a file or folder on my pc that i want to share with other people. let's call it gayshit.mp3

unfortunately gayshit.mp3 is 750mb and im not paying for discord nitro so i need another way to send it

i put it into qbittorrent and it makes a torrent file. this is essentially a very small file that points to gayshit.mp3 so other computers can find it. kinda like a treasure map

i send this tiny file to my friend, who loads it into qbittorrent. their computer takes a moment to find mine over the vast expanse of cyberspace and then (as long as my pc is running and the file is still where it should be), it gets copied from my hard drive to theirs

this is the cool part: if somebody else loads that tiny file, they can download it from both of us. if i'm offline but my friend is on, the third person can still get it. this also means that if two people have separate halves of the file, they can download the other half from each other. as long as some combination of people have the pieces between them, they can all have the whole thing.

crucially this does not require a server!!! you can just upload the file to a few people and as long as they keep it, it's still accessible. as long as somebody, somewhere is still connected, it's available forever. the only way it goes away is if everybody disconnects from it.
