The thing to acknowledge is that none of this matters in the long run, there are no non-generative forms of digital communication - the most human thing one can do at this time is remain silent
Today's signaling that humans use to prove something is not ai-generated: - warm intros - lowercase titles - spelling mistakes - texting - texting-style language norms - droppings emotions but not excessively what else? It's like a cat and mouse game.
Memory Research Group
One of my least fashionable pedagogical opinions is that we should bring back rote memorization in a big way.
I'm doing a collaged, long talk on some things I love, the Memory Research Group, and a new project to which I'm forever committed.
Ways of Sensing w/ @keikreutler at House of Paper FEST25 is Aug 1-3 in Idyllwild, CA. Tickets are $99 🌟 fwbfest.info
Our traditional education system is clearly at an existential crisis, and yet I don’t know any optimistic models/companies here. We should be outraged that in cognitive-forming years, most children copy-paste with ChatGPT. Moral imperative for something greater.
"Artificial Memory and Orienting Infinity" by @keikreutler. Really strong piece on the art of memory, protocols, sensing, and orientation.
I tried to write about how we can think about reconstructing context for memories in my essay Artificial Memory and Orienting Infinity: summerofprotocols.com/artificial-mem…
I saw someone saying that they thought scrolling was affecting their memory formation, because it teaches the brain to immediately discard what it just saw to situate itself in a new context, over and over again. Something to this I think

When I’m consulting with organizations on knowledge management around things like internal processes, I’m always surprised at how the first impulse aims at finally producing that perfect piece of documentation. Like how cars lose value as soon as they drive off the lot,…
Contemplation isn't inherently opposed to technology.
Whereas previous human cultures cultivated both communication and contemplation, digital culture is expressive, discursive, interactive, and reactive in its very essence. The possibility of a contemplative internet is yet unexplored.
This starts in an hour on Discord discord.gg/FdbwqmKX6S?eve… The first session will be casual as we cultivate the format and discussions we want to have going ahead.

Excited to talk about new hardware, but also new textiles, new materials, new, literally living machines.
I touched on this in the recent publication All Media is Training Data for @hollyherndon and @matdryhurst's exhibition. We face the gradual untethering of our concept of memory from human senses, and the idea that some memories are natural, some artificial, wanes over time.
If memory is who you are Reaching back to alter memory with AI might be the more profound change we don’t have strong frameworks around
