norpet is a digital pet with hand-powered logic.

its board (or non-electronic digital screen) consists in a grid of logical operations, one per cell, that you have to follow to bring your pet across its different states of life.

norpet is a proof-of-concept of that we developed for the Virtual Pet Jam 2022.

Just discovered uxntal and started this tutorial by @sejo. This seems really interesting and will probably take up a lot of my time until I start my new job!

rejection, but it's okay 

our proposal to perform the rite of computing on MOCO'22 was not accepted this time!

we basically reused our extended abstract from MOCO'19, where it got accepted but we couldn't attend.

the thing is that this time they were giving a higher word count limit, and i didn't use it: they were expecting a more detailed description of the performance, including if we were envisioning it as something happening online or in-person. 😅

the reviews were super thoughtful and we are grateful for them! we are glad to see the main ideas we wanted to convey did come through.

in any case, this is alright! the rejection kind of aligns with our current plans, and also we know that there will be more opportunities for this, for sure! 😁

in case you are curious, this is basically the extended abstract that we sent: compudanzas.net/dancing_a_univ

I'm enjoying how this discussion about dance and drumming notation got entangled with discussion about post-authorship and fascism forum.algorithmicpattern.org/t

we just released version 1.0.3 of our introduction to programming book!

in this update we finally included a description and examples of the screen auto byte: an advanced feature of the screen device that makes it easier to draw multiple sprites with fewer instructions. we use it for the pong example on day 6!

we also updated the description of the file devices, and implemented some minor corrections.

hope you enjoy it!

About symbolism: Many symbols that represent "sustainable technology" get it wrong by putting technology at the bottom and growing organic things out of it (like a leaf growing out of a gear, or grass growing out of a circuit board). I wanted the symbol of permacomputing to get it right, with the living biosphere as the basis that makes things like computer technology possible. I also wanted to include roots, because roots represent something that is deep and important despite being invisible, and something that may take a long time to develop properly.

An algorithmic representation of a natural object may be easily interpreted as "living things growing out of technology", the connotation I wish to avoid. I therefore consider it important that the symbol states it clearly that technology is not supposed to be the basis.

Job Search 

To whom it may concern:

I've been out of formal work for months and am really in need of monetary income. I would settle for a one-time or temporary thing.

Do you need to do something tedious and extensive? Maybe some Spanish-English or English-Spanish translation? A text review, or maybe html/css code review? Some simple CMS work? Entering data into a database? Doing an analysis on a community, or a second opinion on how to run a community event?

I'm willing to do any of those and some other related things. Write me a DM and we'll talk about it calmly. :blobcat_ow:

OK to boost.

Búsqueda laboral 

A quien pueda interesar:

Llevo meses sin trabajo formal y realmente estoy necesitando un ingreso monetario. Me conformo con algo de una sola vez o temporero.

¿Necesitas hacer algo tedioso y extenso? ¿Tal vez alguna traducción español-ingles o ingles-español? ¿Una revisión de texto, o quizás de código html/css? ¿Algún trabajo simple con un SMC? ¿Introducir datos a una base de datos? ¿Hacer un análisis sobre alguna comunidad, o una segunda opinión en cómo llevar a cabo un evento comunitario?

Me dispongo a hacer cualquiera de esas cosas y aquellas relacionadas. Escríbeme en privado y lo hablamos con calma. :blobcat_owo:​

Pueden boostear este toot.

Yesterday evening I carefully went to day 1 - 3 of the compudanzas tutorials again and I'm such a hasty reader at times. There is way more in the tutorial than I grasped at first. So a lot of knots have opened now. I have the feeling that I don't only know why I have to do things certain whys, but also how they fundamentally work.

I know kind of see the process in front of me. For example how a byte translates into 8 bits and those again tell the environment (the vm, the chip) how to set the flow of energy in order to compute this or that way.

But… then I dreamed of having to physically move around byte blocks that manifested in the shape of headsized crates. Talking about human-scale computation 😅

Another overview of the salvage/frugal/#permacomputing movement(s). Incidentally, "digital degrowth" was also something I wrote in the description of my Countercomplex blog sometime around 2010. criticaledtech.com/2022/04/08/…
