    This isn’t a first. This is not even one of the firsts. But I hope that it is the first next. Hello, my name is Mario and I want to communicate better than I did before. So now I want to put myself right. I want to know what I’m saying, so that you know…

    I’ve pulled away from social media throwing things my way: the distraction is mostly fueled by ennui , what my edition of Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary of Current English defines as a “weariness of mind caused by lack of any interesting occupation”, and I can’t deal with that anymore. That, and because everything on social media is an ad: there might not…

    Tested the waters today, trying to figure out if and how I can use the visual programming language of Processing (afaik it is based on Java) on my tablet. The short answers are “yes” and “buggy”, so I will leave it at that. I’ve used the tablet’s default screenshot option, since I seemingly can’t use…

    Starting to dig into dots and points deeper led to the writing of Wassily Kandinsky.

    “If we perceive the juxtaposition and depth in our environment not just as a series of images in our minds, but as a three-dimensional structure (which in turn defines our thinking), then and only then will we escape the visual chaos of our surroundings and can turn to planning.” Ulf Jonak, Grundlagen der Gestaltung (in…

    Here we go: I defended my thesis in March, and I just have had my first nightmare about being part of a presentation assignment where one of the jury members asked me to produce a specific file from my final presentation. Couldnʼt find it. Laptop booted the wrong OS. Wrong resolution. Full panic mode. Did…

    Have you noticed? People have turned themselves into billboards for ads, canvases for somebody else’s benefit? And the thing is, they are ads for nothing: everybody in 2024 said that the most beautiful thing one can aspire to be, is to look like an ad. Advertising as a visual style, a fashion style. So now…

    “If writing is a medium of thought, then software is yet additionally an agent of will. When it executes my will, my software and I form a single, coextensive unit of both thought and purpose. The computer, accordingly, is merely the software’s mortal coil.” An essay by Golan Levin, quoted in Maeda’s Creative Code. Read…
