✨ Currently excited about: ✨

• buttons
• breadboards, conductivity
• cookies, scripts
• inputs and event triggers, GUI controls
• (user-unfriendly) interfaces and interactions
• interstices, transitions, keyframes
• tool/instrument misuse
• sound as spatial sensor/animation
• noise, granular synthesis
• esolang, steganography

Special Issue #16: Vernacular Language Processing

Group exercises

Date	Pad	Description	Output
22/09/21	RW&RM	Intro, first reading and writing workshop	Emoji markup with Jian, Kamo, Erica. Annotating a reader with emojis to indicate the beginning and endings of each person's side notes, questions, distractions, references, etc. Annotations became interruptions that were woven into the original reader and transformed it into reader 2.0.
28/09/21	SI16	On orientation & navigation	Text traverse + keyword geotag with Alex, Jian: selecting, combining, and rearranging texts from multiple readers to create a new one to perform with. Keyword repetition is used as a text navigation tool/method, so performance can vary (for example, start/stop reading at specific word).
05/10/21	SI16	Text processing	1.) Soliloquy slow processing with Chae, Miriam, Carmen (lines 111-156): selecting a linguistic pattern to apply to a literary device 2.) Magic words glossary with everyone: text processing with special customized commands/incantations for a collaborative spell book
06/10/21	RW&RM	Reader prototypes	From pad to bubbles with Kamo, Alex: converting chaos to calm in the form and flow of chat bubbles
12/10/21	SI16	Transcription processes	Multilingual multitasking with Mitsa: transcribing while recording, listening, thinking, editing, then generating translations in two more languages
01/11/21	Prototyping	Custom corpora	Concrete Label (pad, tool (WIP)) with Kamo: manually filtering/annotating concrete poetry

letter ghosting / sticky spellcheck and punctuation

Observations

and/or reflections, side thoughts, curiosities, rabbit holes

• processing is time and environment-based
• rejection as a vernacular processing method: masks, magnetic field, compressed directions/decisions, simultaneous selection + omission, frame rates of events/active-inactive states, physics (collision/energy)

Experiments

1.) Prototyping for carrier-bag-of-notebooks (to be linked)

Date	Link
21/09/21	XP4, 5, 6 + A House of Dust
27/09/21	XP7 + NLTK1
04/10/21	XP8 + NLTK2
08/11/21	XP15

2.) Vernacular processing methods: archived here (for now)
3.) Digital breadboard (sidetrack rapid prototyping for future processing)

Special Issue #17: Productive Play

Group exercises

Date	Pad	Description	Output
19/01/22	SI17	Ideology & gamification	One-sentence game ideas with everyone
19/01/22	RW&RM	Annotation of an object of ideology	Map with Gersande, Carmen, Emma, Miriam
02/02/22	RW&RM	Productive Play glossary	Glossary wiki Contributions (with Kimberley): "tempo vs. rhythm", "collective sensitivity(sensibility)", "artificial standard"
08/02/22	SI17	Modding, fanfic	Miller's Hollow fanfic wiki with Kimberley & Chae
16/02/22	RW&RM	Describing the loot box

Observations

• containers types: AE scripts + plugins -> "silence remover", incubators

Experiments

• Arrow maze Bitsy game (test/WIP), inspired by the "loops and traps" maze. Goal: create a double maze where the arrows alternate between two directions, where the avatar is also an arrow.

• 

• From workshop game ideas with Steve. Game concept (abstract): delayed rewards/no thrill of the chase

• 

  repel to attract

• 

  individual-collective time sync

• Etherpad ↔︎ Bitsy jam with Jian

Deliverables

"This Box Found You For A Reason"

Phase	Output
1.) Processing	1.) 2.) 3.) Group meeting facilitation with Emma on topics re: share & recap of prototypes, price & accessibility of the loot box, community & launch––see pad, summary
2.1) Production: "Unfinished Thoughts" with Jian	Bitsy game collab 1.) Collaborative reflection & discussion 2.) Individual reflection 3.) Collaborative reflection 4.) Individual experiments: first draft 5.) Combined experiments
2.2) Production: Team 1 (inside the box/content) with Erica, Mitsa, Kamo	Select/curate, conceptualize, design, assemble––see pad 1, pad 2, pad 3, Figma, production line diagram by Alex
