the iLLuSioN oF ReaLiTY - JaNa KYoMooN gets expelled from Facebook

I think Facebook have made a huge mistake by kicking us out but we will rise again hopefully using a social network where our virtual art is appreciated . .  whilst I investigate the options please keep in touch here on the blog

http://janakyomoon.blogspot.com

You would think a little thing like:-

• no stable internet access for 14 weeks, as outlined in my previous blogs
• the temporary loss of my domains www.radiojana.com and www.janakyomoon.com ( still working on getting them back)
• the deactivication of my JaNa KYoMooN facebook accounts - both the music page and profile page

would deter me

but NO

Wednesday June 1st JaN PuLSFoRD will be back on line playing the MuSiC oF JaNa KYoMooN with a month long festival celebrating the iLLuSioN oF ReaLiTY . . watch this space!

and if you would like to be involved let me know . . .

30 days of Creative Collaboration with musicians and performance artists around the globe.

LIVE on

THe iLLuSioN oF ReaLiTY - back Weds June 1st

Hello everyone

After 14 weeks of not being able to get on line I now have internet access . . . Hooray!

I have a lot of catching up to do . . albums to release, new music to play, lindens to pay, streams to reprogram etc. etc.

so

I am planning a month long celebration of "THe iLLuSioN oF ReaLiTY" starting Wednesday June 1st . . . 

Watch this space - be great to see you again and share some music and catch up!

As always thanks for your messages and support

The end of the beginning . . .

The end of the beginning . . . 

Tomorrow my router will be synced up to broadband via PlusNet.

After four months of trying to get on line I can hardly wait!

Unfortunately I still can't use my skype 3 phone - 3's technical support call me every few days to discuss and I keep telling them the same thing but still nothing has changed - Works fine on the train to London but not in this post code . . . 

I am obviously living in a black hole that I am trying to turn pink -

The end is in sight!

part 3: Gambling on PlusNet

Thanks to everyone for your concern. Over the last few months I've often felt like I live in the Suffolk equivalent of the Bermuda Triangle.

I wish I could tell you I have wired internet access - but not yet - tomorrow PlusNet come to install the phone line and apparently 5 days later i should be plugged in.

Watch this space . . .

BTcare on twitter have been extremely helpful - a positive side to social media. I can now get on line with BTOpenZone, albeit an expensive way to access the web. 

The 3 network have been great trying to resolve the mystery of my Skype Phone not working in this Postcode but fine everywhere else . . 

So whilst waiting for Plusnet and a return to Virtual music I have been getting on with some Real Life music demos - some Jazz  with Chico Freeman, Christmas songs for Nashville and more tunes for Music Libraries - did I mention my job description is  really "professional gambler"?

PART 2: Updates this week on more dismal attempts at getting connected to the grid . .

As someone who has worked and lived on line for the last 20 years these past months have been a humbling and frustrating time

Last week I hoisted the white flag and pulled the plug on my on line performances, ordered DSL from plusnet and am now waiting with bated breath for 9th May when they install a "phone line" . . . in the words of Scottie "How Quaint!"

So this week my Skype Phone still could not access Skype . . 3 customer support is very good but I really have better things to do than spend 40 minutes on the phone trying to let them solve a problem that should not exist in the first place . . . 

and then there was BT . . how do they do it? 

Last weekend in a fit of desperation I signed up for BTOpenZone ( as opposed to BTFON . . yes confusing isn't it) £39 for 60 hours of sporadic and unstable internet access . . a bargain you say . . . ( USA friends that works out at about $63 . .  a dollar an hour!)

The first hint of things to come was when they sent me my user name and password in an email - who's bright idea was that?

Most people using BT OpenZOne have no access to the internet so after parting with their money how do they get to log in? I had to use my 3 dongle to get the required access info from my email. Hilarious really if it wasn't so mind bogglingly time consuming and nonsensical!

Then in the middle of the week when I tried to log back on I was told that my usr name + PW were incorrect - nothing had changed from me - i tried three different browsers and two different computers with the exact same message from BT!

Apparently BTCare via Twitter are on the case . . watch this space

Oh yes and whilst writing this I noticed my 3 dongle had mysteriously gone off line . . must be the wind or a dive bombing swallow . . .
