If i would sum up XPUB in terms of Y1 and Y2, it would be that Y1 has been a lot about exploring the technologies and methodologies that revolve around XPUB (that resonated) and alternative ways of prototyping trough collaboration . This, at times, created resentment from my side, as I feel like I've been prototyping the last 30 years. At times, to me, prototyping is a method of making without committing, an excuse to leave the lorem ipsum.*
Hence the excitement during Y2. Sometimes still resentment (PMOMM's), but overall challenging and very insightful. Being able to, and sometimes having to, commit to a long term research using the methods & technologies introduced in Y1. And also looking forward/moving outside of the academy, where collaboration turned into *community*.
Y1 Prototypes & contributions to the special issue
Year 1's special issues and things that did not make it to a special issue
Servers, Games, Workshops, Printers, Smaller experiments
Exploring servers trough their logs
Experiments with the pen plotters and server logs. This script draws a rectangle (almost) every time a GET request is done to the server.
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to an Active Archive
Choose-Your-Own-Adventure style radio program with Anita and Thijs, performed live at Radio worm. Complete with audience participation and infinite loops. Amazing to see how much we could create in such a short time.
SI23(?) TL'DR with Senka and Thijs
Continuation of the deep dive into server logs: How to change the reading experience. In TL'DR a server maintainer can read annotated logs via an E-reader. Which users were created? What packages are outdated?

Hosting and attending many many workshops
Hosted and participated in workshops around permacomputing, circuit bending and soldering. What initially started as a fantastic format, now leaves me with questions. How to get rid of the tutor-student hierarchy in a workshop? How to trigger meaningfull conversation? How to deal with the waste?

Y2: Narrowing things down
- Thesis & long term project
- More workshops,
but change the format
- paged.js
