All I really want is to be cool enough to flirt with someone using a line as good as "oh come take my hand/we're riding out tonight to case the promised land"

@oneiro Remote viewers working from their perches behind rooftop air conditioning units, surrounded by index cards of coordinates and full-sized artists' sketchpads, deliberately transcribing details and sketching visions.
@KitRedgrave, I think you'll like m john harrison quite a bit; a good secondary medication for ribbonfarm, which can be prescriptive/modernist in its syntax even as the words bely it
"Disconnected memories. Uncertainty of events and entities in their “relationship" with reality. The author positioned like Maxwell’s demon, feeling able to claim that this is the inside & that is the outside (the conscious & unconscious, the forgotten & remembered, the admissible & the inadmissible). Calculatedly inefficient filters will be placed at points of transition represented as boundaries and edgelands. The hiatus or glitch, the dropped catch or stitch between the living & the written."

pings in the streets, jinxes in the sheets.
cybres in the streets, witches above the streets providing intel.
witches in the streets, ghosts in the sheets.

(a few students cheated and used the noise() function in p5js :smirk:)
I'm #Irish, I'm a big fan of #OpenStreetMap and other #OpenSource stuff. I'm growing less hapy with companies getting away with this. I love reading #SciFi, #history and #lgbtq #books. I also programme (mostly #python but lately #rust). Ask me about #maps.

all ritual, it's said, is an act of procedurally generated compression; while demoscene cabals didn't see the witchcraft lurking in their loops, they had already organized themselves around the reverse engineering of arcane tongues, the swp of secrets; they had prepared without knowing for the jmp to the final instruction.

an amazing impact of oulipo on my mind is that all writing, particularly with fifth symbols, is now startling: for as if in communion with its authors, I find much of it truly touching. which thoughts brought which words? what myriad possibility was lost in translation and typing?
