!- Publication -!
An Ethico-Phenomenology of Digital Art Practices
Puzzling as it may sounds to some ears, this freshly published book of mine has been inspired a lot by many of you lurkers!
E-book version is the most affordable at the moment. Hardbound for libraries etc.
It will be a few months before the softbound copies will be available.
Still, if any of you get a chance to read it, I would very much welcome the conversation!

Anyone is using #acme as some interface/environment for a personal #wiki or #note taking system that's more than just browsing/searching through a collection of files? (this is what I'm doing right now)
I'm currently looking for some inspiration/ideas/possibilities for keep using acme also for such usage, for some light #orgmode #zim -like usage, or something.

Assange's extradition verdict:
"If he wasnt in such tragic health condition -in which he was pushed by brutal UK legal system, bail refusal, super-max detention, isolation, etc.-, he should have been extradited for his journalism"
A victory for #Assange (awaiting for appeal...) a big DEFEAT for free speech, press freeedom and our right to information and communication.
TOMORROW, Jan 4th 2021 - Verdict in Julian #Assange's extradition case to the US, where he faces 175y in a supermax prison for publishing truthful information and revealing war crimes.
Will UK break away from EU Human Rights and send a prized publisher for a life sentence and torture in the US, where officials from both parties called to have him killed?
Stay tuned for that potential #Brexit from Human Rights...

A 2021 Journey from Oregon Trail to A.I. Dungeon
[...]
Every week in 2021, I'll be posting an in-depth look at one text-based computer game from each year between 1971 and 2021, starting next week with The Oregon Trail. For each game, we’ll take a meaty deep dive into what it was like to play in the context of its original release (on a chattering #teletype, over a dial-up modem in a prototype web #browser, on a brand-new iPad) and how its ideas influenced players and the next generation of makers. When warranted, we’ll dig into old #archives or source code to tease out how each game worked, why it was built the way it was, and what it did that was new, interesting, or successful."

If you use acme as your daily driver on Unix, you may want to check out nyne - a suite of formatting and text editing tools I wrote for acme. You can kind of think of it like a .exrc for acme. Let me know what you think: https://dnjp.github.io/nyne/
Regardless of last week's declaration of #Putin dismissing once again the accusation that his government was involved in #Navalny 's attempted assassination, Navalny just published the recording of a recent phone call he made with one of the #FSB agent involved in the operation, in which he was able to successfully extract information/proofs via pretexting.

folks here might be interested in https://scanlines.xyz, a community forum for diy audio and video started recently with a few friends:
