Operating Superstars #Wiki progress - New articles and #Worldbuilding re-organizing organizations

An article was published about the clubs in the setting, which are informal groups based on shared interests or goals between its members, but don’t have their own headquarters.

https://operatingsuperstars.miraheze.org/wiki/Clubs

This is an idea I had a draft for before I began the wiki, but I kept waiting for the right time to publish it. I think it’s for the best that I waited until the wiki to publish this article otherwise it would’ve been tacked on to the Setting page which was already huge and lacks navigation links

The distinction between clubs and teams that developed is part of a re-organization of the setting. Two groups that were previously teams were retconned to being clubs but this gives them more flexibility.

COSMOS got scaled down significantly from what it was before but this change opens up more options based on different aspects of the retrocomputing communities. COSMOS is based on the part that demonstrates old programs or hardware to show how they can still be useful and may also create new art and music with them.

Demoscene Derby is a new team based on the Demoscene and this club is based in performance art that participants often push themselves to their limits to create, akin to how demoscene productions are optimized for their hardware and push the hardware they use to their limits.

The Coding Circle is based on programming for hobbyist purposes and some of the 1970’s hobbyist OSes may be part of this club. It also has members that are modern OSes built for hobbyists.

TIMES is a club that exists more for story purposes to start investigating mysteries in the past, present or future. It’s not finalized yet if COSMOS would also gather historical records, but if not them, then TIMES would.

Guess What Day It Is?
Lashunta Not-So-Sari Tuesday!

Something an outrider might wear casually, or a common Damaya warrior dressing up.

Here's a collage of all 136 track cover arts I made!

A question for all my fellow geo-nerds--

Can anyone recommend an entry-level geographical text for college-age students that explains general physical geographic concepts? These are students who will be working on world-building projects in a cinematic arts program.

I'm thinking of something just a bit more advanced than this....

Monday Qabarat Inspiration
Artist: Sophus Jacobsen (1833–1912)

The harbor lake on a moonlit night. Could it be some Raumoeva stealing in? Or away?

Lashunta Architectural Inspiration
Imagine this isn't a forest scene, but a Lashunta urban scene. This is set within the city and its arboreal architecture.

Chosen Air Racer -

With air vehicles so prevalent in Chosen society, it was probably inevitable that they became a major part of sports and youth culture.

I am working on my new book on game cities design with CRC, but it won't be out for a while. So, for now, why not get this free 148-pages ebook with game urbanism articles & talks by me.

Here's the PDF: https://www.d6learning.com/game-cities-ebook

Mid-Week Lashunta Inspiration
When in doubt, go with Frazetta.

I have a recurring problem with finding good inspirational pics for Korasha: finding the right balance between brute strength and sophistication. Whatever their squat build and low stature, they are every bit as discerning and subtle as their Damaya counterparts. If they serve, they do so knowingly, which raises interesting questions of how and why they accept their largely secondry role in Lashunta society, even when they are stronger.

Can it be explained by psychic imprinting from infancy? Surely they are capable of self-awareness and enlightenment.

Weekend Lashunta Inspiration, Part ~Zhoa~
Artist Warwick Goble Goble (1862-1943)

What do birds mean to Lashunta? Some they know, possibly the low-level, broad-winged, stealth-fliers like owlshtikes below the megadendra rainwood's leaves, and who fly competition with Castrovel's mobats and lichbats. Yet what about the birds who fly higher over the treetops? How do they conceive of these creatures so higha above their experience?

Lashunta Inspirational Pic of the Week
Artist: Mike Hoffman, one of my new favorites

Something I've contemplated but haven't spent much time on is the concept of the ~Zeol~ - the psychic mindscape: a shared psychic construct that exists as an alternate reality. Given Lashunta's psychic talent, this could be as important a part of their social experience as the real world, or for that matter, the internet. A place where they build a world as they see fit.
