Partially submerged trees along the shore of Barr Lake on a cold spring afternoon. The fog surrounding the lake became quite heavy later in the day, and the wind picked up considerably, making for rough waters. Shortly after this picture was taken, it began to snow again.

Protocolization is the conditioning of the human mind to direct habitation of technological environments without the need for mediation by strong naturalistic experience metaphors.

Good protocols expose agency and hide non-agentic complexity, bad ones expose complexities with no increase in agency.

I recently made a comic complaining that NASA refuses to listen to my good ideas for improving the Solar System (xkcd.com/2750).
