And honestly, I love that question, because it’s kind of a big, weird, wonderful answer. Nitetime.net started way back in 1999. It was a real company, a real dream. Penny and I put a lot into it, chasing that early internet magic and, yeah, those “we’re gonna make it big” stock market dreams. I still have the stock certificate on my wall. The company didn’t make it… but the story didn’t end there. A while back, I bought the name back. So now nitetime.net is mine. My brand. My playground. The logo? That’s the original. Straight out of 1998. Pre-Y2K energy baked right into that “N.” It’s never changing. Ever. Right now, nitetime.net is running as my own weird little UHF-style TV station. I wrote some streaming software, hooked it into OBS, and it just… plays. Old vibes, strange energy, late-night chaos. Exactly how it should feel. I’ve also been putting my music out there. If you search “ nitetime.net ” on SoundCloud, you’ll find it. There are a couple big themes: B-movies. Ed Wood-style inspiration. And yeah… a little bit of me bragging about my old-school CSS/JS superpowers. Are those skills less “needed” now because of AI? Maybe. Can I still tear apart and rebuild a webpage from the inside out if I get even a sliver of access? Absolutely. And here’s the thing. I learned all the tricks. The tiny 1x1 pixel stuff. The ways you could mess with systems. I just… never used it for anything bad. Always for the good guys. But nitetime.net isn’t just code or streaming. It’s the paintings. It’s the robes. It’s being 50 years old, getting sober, and deciding to clean house… not just physically, but mentally too. I used to collect everything. Now I’m building something instead. It’s also becoming a little universe. There’s “The Architect” (that’s me). There’s “The Hostess” (one of the best QA minds I’ve ever worked with… we delivered perfection together). The raccoons? That’s my friends and family. They run the studio, gather the films, keep things moving. And every night… there’s a UFO invasion. They’re harmless. They just show up, dig through stuff, leave stuff behind. Honestly, it’s inspired by my family constantly moving things around the country like some kind of unofficial shipping network. All of this is evolving. Growing. Changing. I realized something recently: I’m a hobby flamer. I go all-in on something, burn hot, then move on. So now everything lives under one roof. nitetime.net This summer, I’m taking it live. Especially for my Highwood people… you’re booked. Bingo nights all summer. And yes, we’re absolutely adding UFO/alien themes to that. The whole vibe has shifted. From being the guy slumped over a laptop, playing the same songs over and over… To this weird, creative, late-night sideshow of paintings, music, strange broadcasts, and Ed Wood energy. So yeah. That’s nitetime.net.
