Spain to regularise 500k undocumented migrants. This does not wash away the scandalous treatment undoc. migrants suffer through detention in "CIES" (Immigrant Detention Centres). However I am happy to see Spain taking these steps towards making the lives of migrants easier, especially at this time

finally updated my personal website design and content teresapelinski.com . got lots of inspiration from sites in neocities.org , used some gifs from gifcities.org , also added a "/now" section (inspo from sive.rs/nowff) and a blog with rss. concept is "identifying as a netizen of the indieweb"

(even writing this, in this deserted platform, feels like overexposure, like trying too hard to be read. don't read it! don't read it! do not read it! ignore I said it! she is not me!)

I have been blaming this thesis (my infinite, never-ending phd) for boycotting the joy I've always felt in writing, but it is clear now that it's actually this monopolised internet of attention capital that is at fault!

I'm currently re-doing my website to add a /now and /blog page to share things on my own terms: no ads between stories, not desperately trying to build social capital, hopefully not overthinking every word. Just existing online, reading what others write, writing my own things

The indieweb reminds me more of my early internet experience. I set up an RSS feed reader, deleted Instagram on my phone, and started doomscrolling through indieblog posts instead. I really like olu.online and maya.land

My existence in Reddit reminds me a bit of it (why this genuine interest in property and trees law? in a DIY loft conversion?), but even if profiles are anonymous it still follows the social and attention capital dynamics of other social media – to say the thing that will get the most upvotes

My online personality was not built on how cool my pictures are or how witty my instagram stories are, or this professional image i'm trying to project, it was built on my childhood interests

when we were kids my friend and I would meet up with our laptops and sit one in front of the other, log into our rol forum, open a thread, a write a story in turns, each from the perspective of our avatar (mine, a skilled photoshop montage of some blond actress on a yellow background)

I miss the internet I grew up with: neopets, club penguin, those online games in minijuegos (the free version of WoW, I was made to believe), forums dedicated to my favourite videogames (NDS Animal Crossing!) and rol forums on my favourite wizard and vampire books at the time

been enjoying reading Dune by Frank Herbert:

'Once men [sic] turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men [sic] with machines to enslave them.'
'"Thou shall not make a machine in the likeness of a man'sΒ [sic] mind."'

you might find it an interesting read if you're into embedded platforms (Bela!), prototyping across different platforms and programming environments, and into doing small, light AI with sensor signals (can I say embodied AI here?)...

or you can just try the library out yourself if you have a Bela

Emmy Noether, mathematician, 1882-1935

here's a picture of Emmy Noether, whose 1918 theorem about continuous symmetry and conservation was the only theorem proved by a woman we studied in the undergrad. it's also the most "aesthetically pleasant" theorem I learnt there. not that i can remember what it actually states

happy international day of women and girls in science, technology, engineering and maths -- i only had 1 woman lecturer in my whole undergrad + master's degrees (5 years, physics & computer science) -- parity is also about representation, you want to study something you can feel part of

Drawing on traditions of artistic research and first-person research methods, Teresa develops the idea of "technical practice research": design- or engineering-related activities in an arts context, where the locus of knowledge production is in the doing and not just in the final result.

In the paper, we examine digital musical instrument design using ideas from STS, especially Pickering's "mangle of practice". The post-hoc stories found in research papers are often much tidier than how the design work really unfolded.
