What kind of moderation should Twoism.org adopt?


Dear Twoism members,

Since its beginning, Twoism has been a space where people come together through a shared love for Boards of Canada and related topics. Over the years, this forum has always embraced a wide range of conversations, sometimes sharp, sometimes philosophical, sometimes deeply personal.

But times change, and so does the internet. That’s why we'd like to hear from you: how should Twoism approach moderation in the future? There’s no right or wrong answer, this is an opportunity to reflect together on what we want this community to be, and how we interact with one another.

Please take a moment to vote in the poll. Your input will help us shape the future of Twoism in a way that reflects the values of its members.

Help we’re fighting,
Twoism crew

FYI: for the past 9 years before the "nobody home" change, error 522 ("gateway timeout") was what was displaying interchangeably with a 404 occasionally (presumably when they had the server for the site running, without the actual site's resource up?) on the website

We'll probably know in the next couple of days as to whether this is intentional marketing or if BOC got mad that we all thought it was a new record and told WARP to pull the website.

Honestly, either outcome excites me.


I’m betting on intentional, BoC have always been very in control of their online presence. There’s no reason for Warp to pull a stunt like that without a good reason, and we got a couple more likes at around the same time. Their online activity has been slowly becoming more consistent since last year, and we’ve been seeing bursts of activity quite a bit this spring. I think they’re establishing a more solid way to reach the fans, then maybe we’ll see something more concrete. That’s just my opinion though.

Maybe soon they’ll become capable of eye movement and blinking, which will really open the flood gates for communication

Well, I finally did it. I asked the tarot cards what they could tell me as it pertains to a new BOC album and got The Tower reversed, so make of that what you want.

I take that as a definitive confirmation of information coming May 22th!

I was really holding out hope for this one..

Here's a Hexagon Fox Theory for you,

4/29 is the most users online at the bottom. that changed very recently.

4:29 in reach for the dead there are 3 dots similar to the morse code.

:lol: I laugh but ..... I guess we will never know.

The uptick in users online is due to bot BS, sorry to burst that bubble.

I also wondered if we'd get an announcement tomorrow, since music typically comes out on Fridays. But, I think we'd see something out in Japan already if a single was going to be released.

If we don't get something tomorrow or next week I think we've all been had again. :(

I hate to say this but you might be right, but a good opportunity to hone in our patience. Whatever they’re working on is worth the wait

The only new Warp releases in the pipeline are: a Mount Kimbie digital-only live album and a Nightmares On Wax remix EP, neither of which (no disrespect to the artists) will particularly generate mass hype. The runway is certainly clear for something major.

About the message on cosecha-transmissiones, i think this is their way of "retiring" the old website. They changed it to say "nobody home" for a while and now the website is gone. I just hope this is to make way for something new.

only thing is, that website had already been down for several years, so why bother posting that message, leave it online for 2 weeks and then put it down again? so weird ahah

It hallucinated a third BOC member on the stage. :D

Even though this is AI, the result is kinda cool.

Speaking of... never thought that BoC would be the one associating their official output with current AI trends. The face melter feel good shitpost was fun and all but the up scaled Cowboy seemed rather out of place. What the fuck do I know though.. They should do whatever the fuck they want.
