Objectum Media

A digital hub and media recommendation list for the Objectum and POSIC communities. We post about media featuring sentient objects and object relationships.'' Most of our presence is on our website! This blog will be for communications and updates.

Objectum Media News: Welcome to Objectum Media! Grand Opening

Objectum Media is a hub for members of the Objectum and POSIC communities to recommend media to each other. We run a website at objectum-media.neocities.org, which we intend to use to host objectum resources and maintain a list of media recommendations.

Objectum Media is for people who:

★ Likes to share media about sentient objects / object relationships ★ Is looking for media that fits this description ★ Wants to discuss this type of media with other objectums ★ Is interested in the "indie web" movement and personal websites, and would like to see the objectum community grow in these spaces

If you're interested in joining the Objectum Media community, we also have a Discord server. Anyone may join the Discord to subscribe to and receive updates for the website, but for the time being, only 16+ members may gain access to the social channels. This restriction may change or be removed at a later date.

Media submissions are also open; media can be recommended through the askbox or on our Discord server. They will be added to our website's queue for a volunteer to get to. If you would like to volunteer to write an entry, take a look at our volunteer guidelines and consult the Discord server!

Been struggling to find motivation to make this post, but the Discord server will be closing up shop by the end of the year (or rather put in stasis so to speak, but the chance of it coming back it pretty unlikely.)

With my current bandwidth I do not have the energy to moderate a server or maintain a website with the level of activity that I wish to do. I like the idea of forming communities for this stuff but I do not have the ability to commit to it!

The website and blog will remain up, and I will try to update it whenever I get the energy, but do not expect frequent updates.

Objectum Media Update: Knight Rider (1982) + Behind-the-scenes restructuring

We have not forgotten about this blog!! In fact we think about it too often! God dammit!

New Entry: Knight Rider (1982) by Carter

A big thanks to a Discord contributor for this entry, and the backlog of entries he's made that I still have to add!!

The website's stylesheet has been modified a bit for readability, namely review entries. In addition, our review template has been revised to be easier to work with!

No queue update because it would've been too time consuming.

I like Byte(like really I own A couple of physical issues) but how is it objectum? If it’s objectum isn’t any other magazine centering on a specific object objectum?

We've selected it for its significance to the objectum community! It's a favorite of a lot of techtums we know.

Our media queue is mostly a suggestion; when we get around to directory entries, not all queue submissions may make the cut.

There are no new directory entries for this update. We have joined a few webrings, which can be found on our Affiliates page.

Queue Additions

We added two new categories to our queue: Websites and Characters. The latter section is currently tentative; it may be replaced or removed later.

Movie: Monster House (2006)

Video Game: Observation

Character: Woodie (Don't Starve)

Character: Third-Generation Emily (WORLD OF TOMORROW)

That's all for this update; we wanted to put this update out for our webrings.

Hi! do you have a DNI or something similar at all?

In our community spaces (such as Discord), we put a bar on people who hold beliefs that make people unsafe or uncomfortable, such as reactionaries. We don't maintain a DNI though because I've found DNIs have been really ineffective in actually preventing people from interacting with me. We'll just block people when we don't want them to interact with us.

[objectum-media]

hello! not to bother but on the "what is objectum" page while describing the flag you accidentally missed a space, creating lavender./It (the slash is there because tumblr isnt including links), which leads to a website. i hope this ask isnt disruptive, i just wanted to let you know :) take care!

Fixed, appreciate it!

Objectum Media Update: Big Data + a LOT of queue entries

Thank you to everyone who has showed up so far - the launch of Objectum Media has been a success! We have a bunch of brand new faces in the Discord server.

New Directory Entry

This first post-launch entry is a little bit indulgent, but I suppose it makes sense to start with media I'm already familiar with. This update's entry is written by me on various songs by Big Data, primarily from their album "2.0". Very good Tech Enjoyer music.

There's also been a few tweaks to the CSS stylesheet; if it breaks any old pages, let me know! Speaking of old pages, have a look at our first entry if you haven't already, on Electric Dreams!

Queue Additions

The queue has gained two new sections I conveniently forgot about: Videos and Podcasts / Audio. There's nothing in these sections yet, but know these are valid submissions too!

There's a LOT of new additions to our queue! So many, in fact, that I'm putting this under the cut. Here is everything that has been added:

Movies

The Brave Little Toaster (1987)

Jumbo (2020) [M]

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

Transformers: Bumblebee (2018)

Herbie: Fully Loaded (2015)

Shows / Series

LOVE DEATH + ROBOTS [M]

Doctor Who

Bob's Burgers

Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex

Video Games

Dialtown: Phone Dating Sim

Portal / Portal 2

Music

Scott Matthew - be human

That's all for today's update! Most updates probably won't be daily, but we had a pretty good burst of activity for this first update. Here's your reminder that anyone 16+ can volunteer to write entries for media in the queue. Please check out our Discord and About The Website page for more info.
