My personal protocol for achieve peace of mind is by doing yoga and meditation.
It helps me to find my inner peace and cultivate self-awareness, living in the present moment.
1. Meditation for 10 mins
2. Doing yoga for 1~1.5 hours
3. Meditation (Corpse pose/Savasana) for 10 mins (or more)
4. Have a warm tea, feeling peaceful and calm :)

The Tyranny of Structurelessness - Jo Freeman (1970-73)
Annotate: https://pad.xpub.nl/p/TyrannyAnnotation
THE TYRANNY of STRUCTURELESSNESS (1970-73) is an article by Jo Freeman aka Joreen. The discussion of structureless in this article is based on the 'organizational form of the movement'. According to the text, "Structurelessness" is a natural response to an overly structured society, however it is organizationally impossible. Not only we can not decide whether to have a formally structured group, but also whether to have one that is structured or not. A structureless group does not exist, despite our desire to think otherwise. Any kind of group of people will eventually organize itself in some way if they come together for any kind of purpose.
The word structure is derived from the Latin structura, which means "a fitting together, building.". In a broader sense its anything put together. The relationships between family members make up a family's structure, and the way your muscles and bones fit together might be considered your body's structure.
It's a challenge to paraphrase something that doesn't seem to work nor make 'sense' because the idea of having no structure is more a theoretical ideology than it is something practical to realize (?), which makes it difficult to realize, because there will be a structure based on that there isn't a structure. So then a counter-structure (alternative) makes more sense than having no structure at all(!?!)
However, contrary to the concept, it has gone from being a concept to a tool for the elite to grab power.

what do we take out of an archive, in order to de-clutter it and make more space for other things?
How can we connect with the specific situation of Radio Worm, as a community and as an archive?
How to work with specific questions and protocols that have emerged within this context?

⊹Protocol Meditation:
⊹Intro:
Okay.....We are slowing into the Protocol meditation practice now...... Before the beginning of meditation , please find a comfortable posture that will help keep your spine straight, either seated or lying down, wherever is comfortable.
⊹
Next, notice where you place your hands. If seated, support them in your lap or by placing them gently palms down on your knees. If lying down, place them by your side in the yoga corpse pose.
Now, breathe naturally as we shall begin the meditation. Inhale...........exhale........... Imagine a dearly loved protocol sitting opposite you and that a white light connects you heart to heart. Connect with the feelings of affection and warmth you have for them. Enjoy the feelings as they fill your body.
⊹
Ask yourself, "What's the meaning of protocols for you?" "What's the relationship between you and it?"
Acknowledge your thoughts and focus again on your breathing….. Interruptions are normal….just let these thoughts go and return your attention to your breathing….
Enjoy the feeling of relaxation. Notice how you are feeling now, physically and mentally, and notice how it feels to be more relaxed. Inhale...........exhale...........
⊹
Now, let your attention turn now to your thoughts… back to normal conscious awareness…. Normal attention to thoughts…. Breathe naturally…. And slowly open your eyes.
We hope you have a wonderful also peaceful time during the practice, and we would like you to share your thoughts after this therapeutic protocols meditation....and.....remember that...... Protocols will always love you~♥︎

MY BODY IS AN ARCHIVE. my body is a n a r ch i-ve. it creates. consisting of dust bones and ash, stardust and earth, cells skin and bacteria. a nonlinear/ˌnɒnˈlɪn.i.ər/ time capsule holding past futures and present tensions, future presents and present pasts. past lives long forgotten imprinted in its dna.
MY BODY IS AN ARCHIVE. it is. tired of words that do not speak of worlds. slowing down, longingly. s l o w, traveling in time out of reach. moving towards and from, within.

⊹Pen Plotters
HOW TO PLOT
- connect to plotter to computer with usb
- start the plotter
- wait! until it is started
- activate the venv you made (source penplotter-venv/bin/activate)
- start chiplotle chiplotle3
- send hpgl file to plotter (plotter.write_file ('FILENAME.hpgl'))
- when you're done, close chiplote
- exit()
Working further on the soundboards
learning how to control mp3 with javascript to change the play rate and/or loop it:
<head>
<title>Soundboard</title>
</head>
<body>
<audio id="audio1" controls>
<source src="./move_1.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>
<input type="range" id="controlaudio1" min="0" max="3" value="1" step="0.01" oninp><input type="checkbox" id="loopaudio1" onchange="loop1(this.checked)" /> loop
<script>
console.log("hello world");
function change1(input){
var audio1 = document.getElementById("audio1");
audio1.playbackRate = input;
console.log(input);
}
function loop1(input){
console.log(loop1);
var audio1 = document.getElementById("audio1");
audio1.loop = input;
}
</script>
</body>
⊹Pandoc
$ pandoc input.txt --output output.html $ pandoc input.txt --output output.html --standalone
mv is both removing and renaming the file

Talking about "collaboration" work and experiences.
Metaphors could be an excellent way to engage the audience and make our presentation interesting.
The difficulty of collaboration...
How to invited each other into your project/code?
- Collaborative: moving towards a more unified outcome
- Distributive: sharing of methods, people are free to produce individual outcomes
