Mixer Manual

Jam Session at the SI25 event

The jam sessions at the SI25 event were some of my favorite moments of XPUB. It made me realize how much I love putting together an audience experience and setting up event spaces.

Special Issue 26: ☺ 3DS - 𝔴𝔢𝔟𝔷𝔦𝔫𝔢 ☺

As the result of looking into media archeology and alternative web-browsing devices within the Special Issue 26, we created a 3DS-only webzine. The project looked into the capabilities of the Nintendo 3DS's discontinued Netfront browser in regards to web-design using CSS, HTML and JavaScript.
We reverse-engineered its limitations to create a dungeon-crawler like browser game that could only be fully experienced through the 3DS, as opposed to the optimized capabilities of current web browsers and devices.

Contributions:

* Concept and visual development
* Asset design and CSS-styling
* Wiki documention
* 3DS customization

Sticker designs based on the W3C and Nintendo 3DS logos.

Protocols for Magic

A lot of my project ☆✎ documentation ✄⚘ lives on
theProtocols for Magic wiki page.

Under the spell of the Magic Commons,
All work becomes occult knowledge,
All author becomes a witch in the shape of a bird,
All spectator a worm awaiting transformation.
★
Under the spell of this license,
All knowledge becomes revealed,
All revelation a bird song at dawn,
And every bird, once worm, a spell-casting witch.
