Apparently it's #AUSPEX day 235.

And we're still not out of these cursed ruins of dreamed places that never were.

#AUSPEX day 236 is done.

Some would say it's time to relax a bit.

A lone pixelated figure holding a torch is standing on one of four pillars forming a square, with another one in the middle displaying a brazier, and some giant sitting cyber skeleton leaning against it below. Other barely lit pillars can be seen in the distance, with many lanterns hanging from the dark skies.

What is the point to escape for one day if you still have to escape the next day?

No matter how many ruins of aborted civilizations were visited, the stairs were always here, lurking in the dark, ready to remind puny life forms of their ineffable greatness.

The seventh part of the #AUSPEX soundtrack is now available here:

Yup, that's my seventh album of the year. Some kind of chronologically built looped #handpan #ambient #techno blend, I have no idea how to describe it.

Maybe I'll do next year, wherever that musical journey takes me.

So, it's #AUSPEX day 245.

And sadly, yes, the time has come for more jumping in the dark on tiny and awkwardly spaced platforms while holding a torch that can go out at any moment.

So, it's #AUSPEX day 256, and I have to tag @alderwick about this extremely important day.

Not that it's anything special, but I've kept day 256 in a corner of my mind since it was mentioned on day 200. So, in fact, this does make it special, I suppose :)

No, that ladder doesn't lead anywhere. At least, not this side of the ladder.
