WORK IN PROJESS
Super nice project.
I like how we take care of each other, it is something new for me in the context of a collective project.
The attention to the group's pace was something really precious.
The exchange of knowledge
Self organized workshops, something we should do more and regularly!
Developing software that suits us
Check in moments
A lot of meetings
A lot of meetings
Communication is difficult.
We should explore more the idea of a shared glossary
Even if misunderstandings are nice sometimes and lead to unexpected outcomes
Self directed project: i like it, but at some point difficult
I mean like in the real world
Cristina: helped a lot during decision making
Cristina: super high quality contents and approaches
👹 & 👺: constantly raising the level.
👹 & 👺: Continously questioning industry' standards
👹 & 👺: We arrived with some grazy ideas and they replied with something even grazier
👹 & 👺: Super stimulating to prototype something and then they showed how to do the same thing but with a more horizontal, accessible and inclusive approach
👹 & 👺: we need more prototyping hours, or organized differently. Once in a week is not really ideal. What about split in 2?
Steve: nice writing exercises they were super helpful
During the excercise for writing the manifesto I had my headphones on listening to ? and at some point I was super focused writing and I heard at the same time the music and the silence in the room. It was really an ecstatic moment.
Not read enough tho, I was too much into exploring and doing things
Reading session with Erica and Mitsa at the beginning. Was nice we should do it regularly
Clara's lecture was my fav: thank you
Angeliki and Wordmord were great
Danny was intresting
Simon was intresting but the timing of the lesson totaly wrong, really hard to focus right after lunch & the meeting
Really liked the iterative process of develop—share—adapt things
Even if sometimes it hurt
the joy of digital DIY
the pain of digital DIY
Our API was something like an ecosystem: messy, exotic, vernacular
And im really happy about it
technology as a social and shared space
I worked with the most of us
But not with everyone
The right idea landed 10 days late
But it couldn't be otherwise I think
Ideas arrive always at the right moment, what we could do while waiting it's just setup the environment
Maybe it's easier to begin and adjust the direction meanwhile, rather than being stubborn on everything being clear and perfect from the start
It's true that choosing a format at the beginning could be helpful, but at the same time the ideal medium for something could not be chosen in advance
It's also true that constraining ourselves since the beginning it's stimulating
And helps to focus
I like how slowly we got all together to the idea of the API
Sometimes I was afraid of pushing things to much!
It was not easy to trust each other but really rewarding
Trusting each other in the process of work is also a way to manage energies better
I like to rely on others for things I'm really not good at
But i found out is nice also for things I'm good at
Because in the end the result feels more shared, and with plural voices
Sharing expertise
Visual Identity outcomes were not really my thing at the beginning and I was a bit panicking, because I'm super sensible and conditioned by visual outcomes.
But at the end I got to like the direction and I was super happy with the result.
Even if I'm still not really sure about the text indent, doesn't it feel a bit messy in the website?
We aimed super high
But there were moments in which i felt to slow down everyone because of technical issues. Sorry
Technical issues always slow down the work
Actually this is a constant of working with technology, so not really a problem. More an epistemic thing. The borders of a project are its technical issues? Woa mr F. this is so dryyy have a break pls
Technical issues: prompt new perspective on how to do things
Setting up the infrastructure for the special issue at the end required a lot of time
I would have preferred to focus more on the actual contents
Because it is true that we worked with the politics of access to our materials etc
But at the end the most of materials were left out ah ah and this is a pity because they were super intresting things
