I opened up the push button dial of the t65, utter and complete confusion. I need to just stay with it for a second to understand what pin does what. Also seems to be a lot of different parts connected together? I could have just did the Sassie thing and adjusted the Hertz settings to match the buttons instead of the rotary dial.

Next up is the thread wiring.

I need:

solder, third hands

microcontroller

adapter

cables

exacto knife

I am going to write proper PMOMMs and record my process there. This should be only note taking

Git workshop notes

"at the expense of simplicity"

software with an attitude?

Git is the software, git-lab-hub-ea is the platform

https://git.xpub.nl/XPUB/git_workshop/src/branch/main/NOTES.md - workshop link

Dr Git wrote the git code.

"social media of code"

this is the man who made git Linus Torvalds

Important for git:

-> you can work and decide on whats public

-> offline access

-> push means publish

-> p2p "for me trust is just knowing the person im taking the code from." - torvalds/mm

-> decentralised, federated, etc.

are we recreating something we wanted to eliminate at first

Michael feedback

copyright copyleft copylife copydeath

how do you get out of the formal bureucratic rules and regulations. life and messiness of the real world.

finding sustainable ways for things to be available and not be available

https://pirate.care/pages/concept/

acts of criminalising solidarity

targets tradition of state->market->family

care gets politicised->women should stay home and take care of family.

Destroy formulations of care.

deconstruction of saying care should be thought differently.

https://hackersanddesigners.nl/connecting-through-seams-workshop.html

whats missing from the copyleft, what is a market friendly way of saying things are Creative Commons and that solves everything.

digital death,

inheritance - declares something death, something is being passed on and forward, digitally and otherwise.

care-> what you are doing and who is it for.

where Marloes is coming from in her research, environmental cost of technology, being more conscious of all the different - > using computing, aware of the costs of things.

to say the bootleg library could be just a computer. we could save the energy of it if it was completely physical.

> > > low tech mag < < <

what are the choices and the reasons.

keeping up the illusion of everything working. big scam of singularity AI stuff.

im stuck with the prototyping1!!!1!!!!

bootleg lib - making things more part of your lived life. Something that could be very how to rewrite the narrative of inconvenience, what if it wasn't discomfort but a part of a morning routine.

embedding the values into the gesture so that it isn't necessarily stay conceptual.

pibliotheque!!

they reached out to manetta to talk.

counter tourist information?

maintainers over the work

Cards - Michael thought obsolete cards remake was a strong nostalgia sector.

Kendalls thesis-> reflective vs restorative nostalgia. https://project.xpub.nl/virtualgarden/XPUB-Cyberhotels-KB.pdf

"old days were better"

looking at the future through old machines that are obsoletiish?

whats ingesting in pirate care-> not anti digital but isn't there a way to have community based libs instead of the digital ones.

I wanna feel like a librarian.

I wanna connect to historical librarian.

the fact that why dewey decimal system is successful was that it had practical applications. it helped reshelving. real physical work that went into it. even building shelves.

thesis outline draft

Charlie: not very formal, storytelling for mode of access, not fond of academic writing, no suspense allowed on academic writing

topic wise: debating between, esoteric, occult related, illustrations, critical analysis of superstition exoteric beliefs, functions in society, magical thinking, conspiracy theory OR interested in art is magic, magic systems, certain structures, ritualised practices, TWO CAN MERGE.

magic system: actively suspend your disbelief, magic is a trickery that you create through paradoxes, two premises have to exist at the same time. logic is trying to find a solution, suspending disbelief that you have into the idea of superstition/ conspiracy theories.

Sevgi:

myth of income for the artists, give a part of yourself to create a space and vibe, transference of creativity, skill sharing

workshops make the artist lose the essence of actually creating, optimisation of creative processes and forceful legalisations, like declaring copyright/copyleft/copyright/copyleft

zuhui+Tessa: three different topics, they all sound really ambitious and putting interpretation back into bureacratic belonging

thought experiment like treating matters as organic things

organic matter, degrade,

belonging -> abstract idea based 2 chapter universe -> chapter 3 is super grounded zuhui likes it ---> maybe you can make it smaller later

ground some more "belonging"s, it is a word of feeling but what is it applied to. when it explained it makes sense.

you don't have to ever explain anything, you can jus have a speculation though experiment of all topics.

copy: interpretive belonging experiments with da law

how can we bend the protocols of belonging bureaucratically to our(artists) time, practice, land, creation.

but then how can we create systems that require maintainers with services available when they are available; i.e. libraries, ?
