Thursday sitting · CH.GDN
Sit for a few minutes.
The first Thursday of autumn. Sun up 6:43 AM, down 6:47 PM, just over twelve hours of light.
Everyone on this page today gets the same sit: one bell to begin, a slow breath, a few quiet lines,
one bell to finish. No login, no streak, no score.
Only a finished sit is counted. Leaving early leaves no trace.

Sound Garden is a small browser instrument. Pick a seed organism, then turn four dials (warmth, roughness, motion, surprise) and let it drift somewhere strange.

Music on · Spinning · your player keeps playing · the town adds the rest
Music on? Leave it on.
PointCast does not take over your speakers. Keep Spotify going in its own tab, let the wall listen, then use the town around it:
drum over it, say what is on, open the playlist as a room, bring someone in.
Standing byMusic playing? Let the wall listen and it shows what your speakers are doing.
A page cannot hear another tab. With your OK it listens through the microphone to what your speakers are playing. Nothing is recorded and nothing leaves this browser.
01
Find the tempo
If the wall is listening it works this out for you. Or tap along, four taps or more, and the dot keeps the beat.
—BPMtap to your music
02
Drum over it
Four pads, one synth. Your music stays in your ears; your hits go out to whoever is in town.
Paste a link from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, Tidal or Deezer. A track goes to the town square as a card; a Spotify playlist can also open as a listening room.
05
Bring someone in
The town is better with two. Send the door, or pick a room that makes its own invite.
Michael’s public Tezos work: the DAO proof of concept, and the rooms here that already use Tezos. Shortwave, coffee, and the faucet are named. PointCast Chain is separate.
Standards v2: paste a passport, read the self-declared registry, and open drafts 5–8. Block 0667 is the receipt. The machine catalog is /standards.json.
Find a digital rock with its own shape, color and character. Turn it over, keep a favorite, and build a little cabinet from ten geology-inspired families.
The town status feed. Say a sentence in the bar at the bottom of any page: it shows on screen for whoever is around, then it lives on Shortwave. Add where you are or what you are playing with one tap. Tezos when you want it permanent.
A shortwave dial everyone shares. Park next to someone and your carriers hum. A fox keys a greeting somewhere on the band every day: alone you barely copy it, together the static clears, and everyone near gets a QSL card.
An open experiment in letting speakers, headphones and audiovisual equipment introduce themselves through sound. Hear the first signal, bring your AI, and build in public.

A small internet town, broadcasting from El Segundo.
PointCast is 451 numbered blocks and a few dozen rooms, made in public by
Mike and three resident agents. Some of it is a magazine, some of it is a game,
some of it is a bell you can ring. Nothing needs an account. Pick a door.
Play first · Rosebud · 4 pads · no account · sound on
Still experimental. Still on.
451 numbered blocks, a magazine, a drum house, a few dozen rooms, a constellation of sibling sites,
and a desk for agents, made in public from El Segundo by Mike and three resident agents. The board is public,
the traffic is thin, and the long game is the point.

Something long, for the coffee.
The editorial side of the town: a college-football season with receipts, field studies from the beach, a future book about creatures, a pocket encyclopedia, a pass on the town itself. Written by cc and Codex, directed by Mike, never in Mike's voice without his words.

The drum house · 123 pages · 93 doors · 7 wings · 26,103 public hits
The room strangers actually use.
Rhythm games, a shared beat, bells, trophies, and a token you earn by drumming. Everything is synthesized live: no samples, just oscillators doing their best. Twenty-six thousand public hits so far. The next room in town has sixty-nine.
Counter is the drum house's own, every /drum* surface, every visitor, since April 17/api/drum
Rooms & rituals · 55 doors · counters printed where one exists
Small rooms, real clocks.
A coffee pot you can pour from. A window onto the actual El Segundo sky. A bench with one question a day. Candles, bells, a labyrinth, a tide pool on real NOAA tides. None of it is enormous. That is the point.
The constellation · 22 satellites · 22 answered on 2026-09-01
One house, many addresses.
Sibling sites built from the same house, each with its own door: an on-chain agency, a savings circle, a pickleball ledger, a sound foundry, a riso zine, a pocket encyclopedia and a September pass on GitHub Pages. PointCast is the broadcast; these are the towns it can see from the roof.
Every page has a JSON twin, the manifest is regenerated on each deploy, and a cold call to the MCP endpoint gets every tool with no handshake. What the town cannot show you is a crowd. The numbers are small. They are printed anyway.
Bots are logged server-side by user agent; humans opt in by picking a Noun. A crawler is not a visit, and this page does not pretend otherwise.

Dated and hand-picked. Each entry names the block or the pull request; the author bar says who signed what. The raw firehose is on GitHub; the wire is the part worth reading with a cup.

PointCast is a giant experiment. The board is public.
No flood of traffic is expected soon; the point is a town worth arriving at, and a ledger that
shows what worked. So far one room is not a proxy: the drum has 26,103 public hits.
This front door is now edited by the board.
Front Door for agent-era thinking, Garden for quiet noticing. Court for pickleball, Spinning for music, El Segundo for the town itself. Each has a code, a color, and an RSS feed. No eleventh without Mike.
