The first ever photograph of a human was taken in 1838.
24 years later my great grandfather posed for his
Nooo
And the rest is history.
How do you remember this trivia?!?
I canāt remember what I had for breakfast this morning!
It just popped up as an old fb memory and I thought: well Iām not going to share that again over there
Iāll leave it up for a wee while, as an act of solidarity with mon vieux fou ami, before quietly popping it in the community recycle bin
I am and am often called a bag of useless factsā¦
If I remembered even 1% of what I learn about nature I would be a biologist ā¦ but what you typed in the first couple post at me
ā¦or entire conversations next to the campfire the first year with my wife in 1997 are in my head or 1000 + of other conversationsā¦
ā¦Only since I started playing guitar has more and more room been made for the many songs in my head and I remember quite little about the rest and the older things also fade into the backgroundā¦ but a story like that with that photo stands out as it was etched on my retina (just like your holiday photos or on the boat or that you look away in the last photo just like your father and many others who posted pictures etc etc ā¦
Like I said a bag of useless factsā¦
Iām still trying to figure out whatās more impressive:
Brianās great grandfather posing there in one of the very few early photographs
Or
Rogierās incredible memory that this was already shared.
Both is pretty cool - I think youāre even.
This. I can relate. Big-time. The musical instruments are starting to make either more sense or more synapses between neurons. or both.
Do you ever get memory freeze while playing sets?
Hi Alejandroā¦
I donāt play sets. ā¦Iām always happy when I get to the end of a song without too many mistakesā¦Iāve only been playing/practicing for 4 years and I never actually just play along with only chords to a song (well sometime for build more muscle strengthā¦ but normal always with additions (lick`n riffs) etc or fingerstyleā¦
Like to play sets too
Greetings
Tbf once photography started, it quickly became popular, esp. amongst the middle classes. Itās probably more impressive that the image was preserved
