▁▂▃Protocols for Collective Performance▃▂▁

Since everything seems to be a mise en abyme, this page is going to be all about protocols, in order to be meta and in harmony with this Special Issue's title.

Protocol for a field recording

Context

Map of Toulouse to locate the place of the recording

This precise place is actually one of the city's borders. It makes the connection between Toulouse and the city called Balma, which is in the North-East.
On the photo above, you can see the Hers[1] river, and a bridge, on which the metro passes (hear it at 01:49). Near this precise point on the map is a big commercial complex, lots of companies and an entrance to the highway. So this is obviously not the place you would expect to hear the birds. Yet, here they are! 🐦‍⬛

  1. pronounced “èrss” (or /ɛʁs/ according to the IPA audio chart and the IPA vowels audio chart)

Memory from the place


A song that goes with the memory (kind of)

Protocol for mourning a database

See User:Kiara/mourning for pictures

  • Choose a date in the calendar, maybe the day you lost the DB :(( and set it as a holiday.
  • Tell your boss/clients/whoever you want you're in grief and need a mourning leave.
  • Rebuild the DB when grief is over :((
  • Learn to backup your DBs to prevent future griefs.
