Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
So last evening I dusted off my recorders, greased the joints, assembled the instruments, most of them, found my stand and plenty of music, solo and parts. And I'm ready to play a bit each day.
Left to right, meet soprano, tenor, alto.
The spare room bed is now a music department.
My hands aren't up to the bass, a bit heavy, awkward fingering, but the other voices will give me plenty to do.
I have a sopranino too, vital for bits of Magic Flute where it does birdsongs. Not much call for it in my life at the moment.
And postcards to voters are under way. Fortunately the important information is printed on, so my words are just friendly encouragement, as legible as I can manage, which isn't very. The qr code kept registering as I took the picture, so it really works as promised.
Quick food shop this morning. At least what they have off my list.
Keep on! One foot in front of the other.
