"...Such fear and fanciful notions took possession of the living that almost all of them adopted the same cruel policy, which was entirely to avoid the sick and everything belonging to them. By so doing, each one thought he would secure his own safety.”
“E lasciamo stare che l’uno cittadino l’altro schifasse e quasi niuno vicino avesse dell’altro cura e i parenti insieme rade volte o non mai si visitassero e di lontano: era con sì fatto spavento questa tribulazione entrata ne’ petti degli uomini e delle donne, che l’un fratello l’altro abbandonava e il zio il nipote e la sorella il fratello e spesse volte la donna il suo marito; e (che maggior cosa è e quasi non credibile), li padri e le madri i figliuoli, quasi loro non fossero, di visitare e di servire schifavano.”
Decameron [1349], Giovanni Boccaccio describing the black death

notes:
semiotic materialism is the idea that materialism is always situated meaning-making and never simply representation.
situated knowledges, an effort to think outside the duality of objectivity-relativism
It is not about the opposition between objectivity and relativism, is about the thickness of worlding, is about being for some worlds and not for others
the whole story is about gerunds, -WORLDING -BODYING -EVERYTHING-ING
strategic essentialism (from Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak’s theory)
“there is a strategic use to speaking the same idiom as the people that you are sharing the room with”
the category of PLAY
Play captures a lot of what is going on int his world- there’s a need to develop practices for thinking about those forms of activity that are not caught by functionality, those which propose the possible-but-not-yet, or that which is not-yet but still open.
We can’t do that if we do nothing but critique. We need critique;But is not opening the sense of what might yet be.
Mourning without despair
Pro-tech but skeptical about the Techno-fix: because of their profound immersion in techno capitalism and their disengagement from communities of practise. (solar panels/fracking:is important to be aware of the supply chain that lays underneath technologies like renewable energy.

2008, Etherpad! (complex, but worth reading)
two algorithms: Operational transformation OT/ Conflict-free replicated data type
Etherpad documents are based on the concept of CHANGESETS (=list of differences between two successive versions in the repository)- something in common with Wikipedia articles- to store the history of an article.
In etherpad each change in considered a “revision”.
Easysync- merging algorithm < —< Operational transformation
(donna haraway on Diffraction: Diffraction does not produce "the same" displaced, as reflection and refraction do. Diffraction is a mapping of interference, not of replication, reflection, or reproduction. A diffraction pattern does not map where differences appear, but rather maps where the effects of difference appear.)

shift from speaking of text to speaking of data- information losing its body Katherine Hayles
Technotexts: When a literary work interrogates the inscription technology that produces it, it mobilizes reflexive loops between its imaginative world and the material apparatus embodying that creation as a physical presence. (Writing machines, Katherine Hayles)
