01/22/25 Methods

• from discussing Tactical Design:

critical design is self reflexive of its own practice and methods. tactical design is directed towards action. It is not so much concerned with creating new, but dealing with whats there. In this approach it stands close to ideas such as pirating or hacking, intervention and performative. Claudio mentions tactical as consequence of critical.

• How do we move out of paralyzation that constant critique puts us in?
  • share
  • talk, discuss, converse
  • work collectively (puts the pressure away from the individual)
  • accept that we all live and act in a capitalist system (this does not mean everything is lost)
  • re-identify yourself (designer -> artist) or have multiple identities or practices
• individuality and collectivity are not opposed but go together and you need both

"To present this radical demand for the objective transformation of reality, to combat subjectivist immobility which would divert the recognition of oppression into patient waiting for oppression to disappear by itself, is not to dismiss the role of subjectivity in the struggle to change structures. On the contrary, one cannot conceive of objectivity without subjectivity. Neither can exist without the other, nor can they be dichotomized. The separation of objectivity from subjectivity, the denial of the latter when analyzing reality or acting upon it, is objectivism. On the other hand, the denial of objectivity in analysis or action, resulting in a subjectivism which leads to solipsistic positions, denies action itself by denying objective reality. Neither objectivism nor subjectivism, nor yet psychologism is propounded here, but rather subjectivity and objectivity in constant dialectical relationship." - Pedagogy of the Oppressed p 50, Paulo Freire

• dialectic thesis + antithesis = synthesis

02/03/25 Special Issue

• for web extension: meta tags as one style sheets: for every part make comments, explain, narrate make it usable for others
• img { } styles cascade to alt text (when there is no img, text is styles with for example color, font-size)
• declaration is the opposite of alt text (first is declaring style therefore creating, alt text is describing what is there)

02/04/25 Web Extension w/ Joseph

• browser timeline
• Joseph shared browser extensions he made: Washing Machine, Mirror, Locomotive, Lamp as contribution to Lidia's Pervasive Labour Union

• more ideas for web extension:
  • check on amount of dependencies (or frameworks)
  • check on filesize
  • do sth with footnotes/ citation! (maybe in wiki first?) or hyperlinks?

02/05/25 Methods: The Webs Grain

• Felines and my Pad
• general session pad

---in between---

• web extension:
  • css stamps, status symbol (for 'empty', expiring, or styles...?)
  • css interview / conversation (they had chatty pub...)
  • css print in inspector / make every website into book?

have been thinking about inspection, specifically of interfaces – while using digital color meter to scratch some colors, what a strange tool... reacts with every window open not just the front one... . but then also the web inspector that I love. what else is there? screenshot!! (/cast - or are these the opposite of inspect? stated as „scan“ or „neglect“) —— I like the stickyness of these
