Kayak Trailer Securing System

Coming up with a bungee system to secure the kayak to the 2 wheeler is proving more difficult than at first glance. The key is having the right "forward" and "rear" tension so that the kayak is not pulled too forward. That it can stand upright however is some indication of being "good enough". Also noteworthy, a piece of 6 ft 1/2 in PVC fits in the screw together oars which I put together as kayak paddles. Now I don't have to unscrew the handle of the broom I've been using.

This is a "dumb stick" used to attach a kayak to a bike. Easy construction from PVC; the tricky thing is making sure the hole for the seat stem is cut at an angle so that it's somewhat perpendicular to the seat. The bolt is to prevent the pull cord from coming off the end. And I cut a piece of wire hanger and bent to act as an additional catch so that all of the tension of the pull cord is not on one spot (which would lead to early failure of the tow system).

Here's the kayak bike tow system put together. Dumbstick + Amp 2 Wheeler. Works.

Modules on Virtual Memory | Making the Most of Ancestral Intelligence

This project was conceived to better understand the future of the internet, given Generative AI and the burgeoning population. This ultimately has to do with the increasingly abundant amount of information, and our increasing collective ability to remember a lot of what has happened, and recollect what has happened; all of us, Generative AI included. I would like that we amended our current semantics to Generative Ancestral Intelligence , as I think that this gives a clearer idea for the matter of discussion.

Backpack Band-IT - Guitar, Keyboard, Drums on the OTG

After hanging with my buddy Chris for the 4th of July, I was reinspired to look into how to do an extremely portable band system. He likes recording him and his buddies making music and fiddles with things like using his tablet for drums when he's on vacation or at someone's house. A real prohibitive factor for making music is the instruments require a lot of space and are a massive headache to consider when traveling. And an absolute no-go when flying. As a first pass into a portable music system I consider using what I already have, with the exception of one item which would make this a really cool project: the short scale fold up guitar! First what I already have: I conceive the SmartPhone to be the recorder since I will likely want to make fire hot music recordings go viral instantly. There is an app (Piano Extreme: OTG Keyboard) which allows you turn your OTG keyboard hooked up to your phone as a musical keyboard (assigning notes to each character but...
