SI23 / COUNTERMAPPING / PUBLIC TRANSPORT / /DOOR/PORT "How did we get here?"
Ideas session for SI23_________________________________________________________
-(con)text adventure games, where limitations are there in the game (up down south east west north and other commands) and also the limitations offline could be implemented in case / scenarios |
KEEP IN MIND THIS IS JUST A BRAINDUMP / NO(okmaybesome) CONCRETE THINGS
...// booting mind>>>>>>>>>>
general comment:
we have so much we can work with (all the readings / prototyping) /
imagemagick / python / html css javascript / web / ascii art
ghost host parasite server etc / the wordquilt / code of conduct etc etc etc
..
first; Maria X mentioned the word question but the connection broke it into quest-ion, which could be a happy accident to use the storyline to ask questions that may have come up in the reading and prototyping of previous weeks. QuiltQuestionQuest or somethin.
..
second : based on the adventure txt and fictionalizing human computer something(very paraphrased from a previous text we read)
/
you see what you type -> person a speaks
person b does walk compass-like
limiting the options "You can't open cabinet" said by person c
/
the narrator in this part could read it out either non-linear or linear depending on the 'script' so if the person does something not according to script, the narrator will go to bottom of script
..
third --> something I have been thinking abouthttps://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mediadesign/User:Lor.ens%C5%8D#Concept:_Where_do_ya_draw_the_line?
I am kind of using the idea of Google maps step by step and using the linear story and fictionalizing / gamifying the inaccessible process from A to B (this is more a political thing and I might just do it for myself on the side)
this could also just be a personal side quest
using 1-3 cases with the idea of connections servers protocols etc
..
fourth: yesterday's class reminded me of the dos games / old mac games and the actual collosal cave adventure: Roberta Williams as inspiration https://www.mobygames.com/game/2029/the-roberta-williams-anthology/

I have this with me in the studio btw vvvvvv

..fifth, make the special issue somewhat like an webquilt arcade? out of ideas, mind will close down for maintenance

COUNTERMAPPING =BUGS OF MISCONDUCT
Walking around in the neighbourhood thinking and defining (counter)mapping I walk in this space that used to be a prison complex in the north of rotterdam, The area has changed into a hip area that flirts with truman show type of aesthetics. I have been thinking about the infrastructures and how things are not working in this city. I have many objections into city planning and I'm wildly attracted to ideas of who owns the city.
As I stroll my sunday gloom away, mending the shapes of spaces I read or hear something along the lines of Codes of Conduct, earlier today I was watching the sitcom parks and recreation, which is a based at a local government in America and the shows the bureaucracy sometimes.
I am wrestling with my ideas on what I want to do and I am doing these things justice and or the right way.
A bubble came up in opposition to a Code of Conduct and I thought about Bugs of Misconduct.
Dividing the definitions:
BUGS:

/ˌmɪsˈkɒndʌkt/
- 1. unacceptable or improper behaviour, especially by an employee or professional person. "she was found guilty of professional misconduct by a disciplinary tribunal and dismissed" h Similar: wrongdoing, delinquency, unlawfulness ,lawlessness ,crime ,felony,criminality,sin,sinfulness,evil,evil-doing,unprofessional behaviour,unprofessionalism,unethical behaviour,malpractice,maladministration,dereliction of duty ,negligence,breach of ethics,impropriety,immorality,abuse,malversation,misbehaviour, bad behaviour,misdeeds. misdemeanours,disorderly conductbadnessmischief

- 1. behave in an improper manner. "the committee reprimanded two members who were found to have misconducted themselves"
- 2. mismanage (an activity). "there is no evidence that the premises were being misconducted"
Thinking about the bugs of misconduct, it's a great ethical dilemma because it is, if I am correct, a bit of a contronym/auto-antonym/Janus term. OR a homonym.
To me, bugs of misconduct are an error in the system. The cracks that appear to be loopholes or invite to squat. It opens for alternative opportunities as a crack in the wall. The bugs go in and start to acclimatize to the space, showcasing the cracks and the errors as fundament. For what idk yet. I'm in need of looking at the readings of previous weeks and to show.
another of countermapping is to showcase hostile architecture, or infrastructure, maybe that is what I have been doing earlier with locating the steps from one person in a scootmobile / wheelchair to another by public transport.
A bug of misconduct is potentially a parasite that leeches off the host.
PUBLIC TRANSPORT
This was a sideproject that comes from my best inspiration: frustration <3
Concept: Where do ya draw the line?
1. "Public transport: From A to B via Metroline E and Tram 7."
A personal observation based on the limitations concerning accessibility, usability concerning healthcare, public transport.
Since XPUB is focused on making things public, I'm thinking about some stuff.
Public Transport, How do you make Transport Public? Or more public
I'm just thinking about the idea of the public service for the transport from an accessible / disability point of view. This case is quite personal but also inspirational from my critical thinking designartresearchblabla point of view.
So, let's say my mother wants to go to my brother. What needs to be done? For this method I'm using the google maps standard*/ **
- Go out of the house
- Unlock the scootmobile
- Uncover the scootmobile
- Put the cover inside
- move the bicycle
- position the basket and possible bags
- start scootmobile
- go to end of street
- wait for traffic lights / or if you're lucky it's green but it's always in favour of the cars.
- once you crossed the street, go to the elevator
- check in at port **
- push the button
- wait for elevator
- possibly wait for people to exit the elevator
- enter the elevator***
- wait until you are at the platform
- exit elevator to right side(need to confirm this)
- wait for the metro
- search for the good entrance without the metal poles in the middle ^
- be in metro for one stop
- reach central station
- pull back to exit metro
- go back or forward to elevator
- push button and wait for elevator / if you are lucky it'll be there already
- enter the elevator ***
- wait til you reach centraal station begane grond
- go back or forward to exit elevator
- check out at port **
- ride towards third tram platform
- enter third tram platform
- wait for tram 7 towards woudestein? (need to be confirmed)
- in the meantime, guess on what half of the platform the tram will stop
- inevitably ride or race through crowd to reach the middle / center of tram****
- enter tram in transit ^
- position yourself
- wait until you reach you reach your destination
- try to get out of the tram
- check out as well
- you can finally breathe again
- enjoy your visit
- when it is time to leave, leave*
- go back to the tram
- search for the right port on the other side of the street
- inevitably ride or race through crowd to reach the middle / center of tram****
- step / check in
- it might be possible that there is a parent and a baby carriage in the space that is also meant for wheelchair and rollator
- wait in discomfort
- person with baby carriage needs to get out, instead of going to another exit, this person insists to get out the door they came in, they lift the scootmobile and you are in even more discomfort
- you need to wait some more time
- finally you are at Rotterdam Centraal
- struggle to get out of the tram once again**
- head to the metro port
- check in and somehow also drive towards the elevator***
- push the button of the elevator
- position yourself in the metro at the place with no metal poles in the middle
- wait one stop
- get out the metro
- go to elevator
- go up
- go out
- go home
- place all the stuff back
- recover
*before you go, think about leaving at least 10-15 minutes in advance
** might need someone else to do it because it closes again in a certain timeframe
*** this means the elevator works
**** there might be a parent with child, cyclist, person in wheelchair, other person in scootmobile there
^ take into consideration the doors are literally timeframes so you better have someone with you to hold the door
Example: --------
The Rotterdam Electric Tram has multiple Entrances -> Ports
Port asin the doors
Port asin checkin / outs
[] PORT 1
[] PORT 2
[] PORT 3

eurotruck/american truck simulator as a reference for being in a process of sharing files -> gaming for the relaxation and accepting the absurdity of simulator but also understand the educational value of these peculiar games
as a part of the /door group (w/ Victor and Mania)
I was thinking about how to grasp all of the words we (both as Quilt INC and as the entire class), collected, discussed and try to understand and define in one big web/map of words, thinking about the runme.org example as shown in Aymerics lecture. My thought rise to the idea of
