Wordless Wednesday: Golden Gate Park

Hipstamatic from one of my favorite spots in Golden Gate Park. Today was one of the first days I went out just for the fun and joy of it, rather than for practical needs, since pandemic restrictions started in March.

CatSynth Pic: Cat and Nord Keyboard

Cute cat with a Nord keyboard. From Man-l Adsr on Facebook.

Clearly, this cat has great taste in keyboards (this looks to be an early Nord Electro). We also see some of those stickers identifying names and notes of keys that we have seen a few other recent keyboard photos.

Black cat – green eyes like our Luna – with a rack full of modules from Erica Synths. From James Johnson via Facebook.

Both the cat and the modules are gorgeous!
