blurring the boundaries of the self
what does praxis mean? why do people say it all the time?
- practice, as distinguished from theory. modern political praxis is now thoroughly permeated with a productivist ethos
- accepted practice or custom. patterns of Christian praxis in Church and society
I want to make a browser plugin that blurs individuals names. Becuase I feel uncomfortable showing them on a screen. Actually a chrome extension already exists that lets you add custom css called https://stylebot.dev/ so i installed that and gave it a little css:
.zF, .yP, .gD{
filter: blur(0.25rem);
}
why are you here stephen? (at leeszaal answering your email)
I'm trying to look at behaviors and actions that fall in the category of "work". I'm curious about what they are and what meaning they bring to the people involved. I'm curious about the structures they fit into and the technologies, habits, etiquette, narratives that form these systems. I'm trying to look at these things in a different way. So more specifically this evening I'm going to answer my emails as a public performance. This is a type of communication act that is usually done in private. It is a major component of "work" for many people, although few would see it as an important skill, their profession, or their vocation. It takes time and labour. By inviting you here as an audience, I am asking you to become a part of this event. I am wondering if performing this ritual in an unusual setting will prompt us to see it differently. Performances are often about celebrating, affirming, defending, justifying, challenging, exploring or reforming our beliefs. When I'm finished checking my mails in front of you I'd love to chat about it together.
