Hi Nolan @Snolf

Tell us more about your tunes.

Breneir

Azul aititù!

I'm a longtime folk singer currently running an independent folk venue and open mic right in the heart of Belacosta, where I've lived for the last few years.

I have made tunes of all sorts and have always had a deep interest in cultural music development. As such, I had initially reached out to Miestra Schiva with an artistic proposal for an archival Smithsonian Folkways-style album cataloguing Talossa's tale through tunes, both historic and contemporary.

I would love to write songs of my own for the project, as well as open the doors to collaboration from any other citizens interested in working on the idea! I would love to help develop a distinct cultural folk sound for the Talossan nation.

Very cool! I have a Talossan YouTube channel called Fora Talossa. We would love to post some of your works in our cultural affairs program called Currents.

Here is an example of one of our Currents episodes:

Would you be interested in contributing?

I'd love to hear some of your music! Do you have links or are they in Apple Music or Youtube?

Azul Mr. King!

At the moment, most of my recent output exists only in hard drives and local public places, but I would be happy to send you a folder of material if you'd like!

Awesome! Well, I would just need video of any musical performance you would like to share. I would then make it into a video as a part of the Current series. As always you would have final review and approval.

Someone should put some of this (https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=5600.msg46130#msg46130) to music. I'll beat you to it!

Ha you likely will!! I think one of my most anticipated undertakings is learning to pronounce (and eventually sing in) glheþ... if any Talossans out there would be willing to chip in with some pointers, I would be in yer debt!

@Snolf Your video for Fora Talossa does not need to be in Talossan.

This prospective is now eligible for a petition by a citizen in good standing.

Not sure of the proper wording but I hope this will suffice. I Tric'hard Lenxheir a citizen in good standing hereby petition that this prospective be granted full citizenship (we in Vuode need all the help we can get)

mick

Seems like Nolan is still ineligible for a petition until tomorrow. Will send the oath then.

I am honored!!

Quick question: you said you actually live in Belacostă? Your application has you listed as a prospective citizen of Vuode, but if you live in Talossa proper then you are automatically assigned to the province in whose borders you reside.

Eeh, good point. Nolan has returned the Oath and is now legally a citizen, but I'd better have either him or MinImm @Baron Alexandreu Davinescu clarify where he actually lives before issuing the Writ.

Congrats, Nolan!  We are so happy to have you -- let me know if you're interested in helping with the language lessons I've been working on gradually over the past couple of years.

Azul! I would be tremendously interested! I plan on making a broader Xheneral post about this, but I definitely want to source some information on pronunciation and grammar for the musical endeavors!
