Re: RIP Techno Tourist & Electro producer Wibo Lammerts
Late to this, but had heard about his passing through friends on other social platforms. Great guy, didn't know him well but was a big part of the 313 list in its earliest years. I echo Kevin's sentiments and miss the sense of community that mailing lists like this provided years ago. Not to shake my old man techno cane at the sky, but I feel like years of social media algorithmic engineering has stripped that away. Or maybe I'm out of touch. Anyway, long live Wibo. Aging sucks.

Re: RIP Techno Tourist & Electro producer Wibo Lammerts
I picked this up almost week ago now. To me, he belonged to the circle of names I mostly bumped into again and again online. Throughout the last decades. Of course, I also heard a few of his releases. But I didn't know him personally. And yet, it keeps circling in my system. Beyond my thoughts revolving around his family. Maybe along the lines of what Kevin wrote earlier. About all the things we didn't tell each other when we could. I also wonder how content Wibo was with his artistic journey. If he found what he was looking for within. If he, deep inside, was satisfied with how he was perceived as a 'creative'. If that's even a possible thing to achieve for anyone. Thank you all for somehow being part of my journey for all these years. For the insights into a different world, culture, its struggle, its fruits, delivering a sense of space and place. Also for the discussions, the clash of opinions, for just being humans. I think we know nothing. And that, especially in the dawn of AI, it's our duty to figure out more frugal ways of communication. To get a better understanding about the human condition, the creative drive, the value of communication through creative work and all that. And I hope this runs in Wibo's spirit.

Re: RIP Techno Tourist & Electro producer Wibo Lammerts
W1b0 was always really good about keeping up communication. He was a bit of a social butterfly which is no small part of why everyone liked him. I now know by the way that he unexpectedly went into cardiac arrest. Resuscitation was attempted but failed. He was in basically good/great health. I'm really sorry to hear about your health situation, too. I hope you get well ASAP. I'm no more concerned about what happens to me after I die then I am concerned about what was happening to me before I was born. Almost everyone who is anxious about the former has no worry about the latter. I believe that attitude kind of reveals the game.

Re: RIP Techno Tourist & Electro producer Wibo Lammerts
What really is even more sad is that many of us barely communicate with each other until it's time to eulogize the ones we lost. I'm sad about this passing, as I have been about so many other friends that I'll never see again. Here's my personal perspective: I have, for the last two years or so have been on dialysis. I've spent the last year having multiple eye surgeries in order to save my sight. I've been through hell. We as a society focus so much on dying and death that many times people forget to think about living. Tell friends that you love them. Say the kind words to the people who you respect. Thank the artists that enriched your experience. It takes nothing to be nice, and who knows, you might make their day brighter. Just a thought for you from someone who has had to confront his mortality recently. On Tue, Aug 16, 2022, 1:33 PM Thorin Teague wrote: > Makes for a sad morning.

Re: RIP Techno Tourist & Electro producer Wibo Lammerts
I caught up with Otto just last week in London (and Hans a couple months prior), lots of old 313 (and Lowlands) discussion, including the other Techno Tourists. Sad news.

Re: RIP Techno Tourist & Electro producer Wibo Lammerts
He was a good guy. I remember driving KJ, Otto, and him around Greektown for that first 313 meet. RIP Hard to believe that was almost 25 years ago. I was thinking the other day that Fred and Greg seemed mature to me when I was 20. I'm probably older now then they were at the time. Time waits for no one. Momento mori.
