  • Putting things into my computer rooms

    Currently moving all of my work documents out of the older everything-but-the-kitchen-sink account and into the new work account on my laptop. It is a small administrative chore, but the larger point is worth it: compartmentalizing how I use the same device. Older computer systems assumed many people might have accounts on one machine. Then…

  • I am still here

    Still writing in English. Still working. Just so you know. And I will always be around. You will know me by the stuff I post. Quelle: Code & Canvas

    What nobody is ready to admit: spending time on social media is bad for your creativity; the output you have is a fragment of what you could be and do. https://t.co/CCisRMDQfB #asca Quelle: Twitter

  • Building rooms inside my computer using Windows accounts and Firefox profiles

    I am a very boring person, so this will not be surprising that I have somehow managed to reference Goethe’s Zauberzirkel again by compartmentalizing how I use my PC: I have created local accounts for work, for social media, and for gaming, made them be not-admin accounts, given each of them an individual wallpaper and…

A backup service for my social media posts. A sort of "best of" social media posts social wall for my…

  • Talking about the film Ex Machina with an AI

    I think the hidden thing is not “Ava is manipulating Caleb.” It is this: Ava may not be trying to become human. She may be trying to escape the demand to be interpretable. That sounds small, but it changes the whole film. Most readings assume the question is: > Is Ava conscious? Is Ava human-like?…

    The bird behind the plough does not need a better furrow. It needs to remember the sky over the wound. The field is not the world. The exposed thing is not truth. The machine’s path is not fate. There are still others that answer to your hands: a notebook, a camera, a kitchen, a garden,…

    A feed is not a window. It is a ploughshare dragged through the soil of attention, cutting open what was buried. Then we come like birds to the furrow, feeding on the exposed things. And call the pecking “research,” “awareness,” “critique,” “posting.” The farmer is elsewhere. #asca Quelle: Mastodon
