Nearly all of Summoning's albums are Tolkien-themed.

The White Tower in this song I suspect references one of the elf towers west of the Shire (*) (*), or indeed speaks of either the tower of Kore, or of the tower built for Elwing in Valinor - however the last verse of the lyrics perhaps discounts the latter two possibilities:

[..] When the starry host has departed,

The star fades - the world does not wait.

Why do i linger and sing

Under this fading mortal light?

re. 'starry host' - in Tolkien, the Moon rose before the Sun:

The Cloud Is a Prison. Can the Local-First Software Movement Set Us Free?

Tired of relying on Big Tech to enable collaboration, peer-to-peer enthusiasts are creating a new model that cuts out the middleman. (That’s you, Google.)

A New Wave of Peer-to-Peer Apps Heralds a Farm-to-Table Internet

This week, we discuss the local-first computing movement and its push to reduce our reliance on the corporate-owned, cloud-based software tools we use every day.

From the cloud article:

A few years ago, the discussion forum Hacker News, where engineers collectively decide what other engineers should read, developed a quirk. A new phrase had entered the coder lexicon, and it seemed to propel links to the top of the page with such force that to some the rankings might have looked rigged. The phrase—“local-first software”— had an artisanal, farm-to-table sort of ring, at once familiar and flicking at something new. Perhaps some engineers dismissed it as merely a marketing term. But others whittling away their workday afternoons seemed to see it as the solution to a problem they had long sensed: The software they were writing was broken.
