in case you are curious, it includes the glitches we had as well :)
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 #beansComputing that we developed for the Virtual Pet Jam 2022.
we are happy to announce that 'introduction to uxn programming' is now published as an #ebook in #epub, #gempub and #mobi formats!
originally available online as the #uxn tutorial, this is a carefully revised version for you to have it offline and available anytime:

Just did day 1 of this #uxn tutorial and it was a lot of fun. :)
@compudanzas I just finished day 1 and it was awesome. :)
Hello #uxn fans, I have just updated uxngba [1] and uxn-linuxfb [2] to the current UXN core and mailing list changes. Please let me know if you encounter any issues.

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!

Our host is Lee, our audio engineer is Max, and our designer is Caleb.
We have episodes on topics such as art and activism, toolbuilding, speculative futures, language design, digital commons, performance tools, livecoding, alternative networks and much more. We also do mini episode interviews with creators of art tools.
All episodes can be listened to on our website, via RSS Feed, and found on all podcast platforms.
We have full transcripts of every episode and links to resources.
#introductions
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: https://compudanzas.net/dancing_a_universal_turing_machine.html

I'm enjoying how this discussion about dance and drumming notation got entangled with discussion about post-authorship and fascism https://forum.algorithmicpattern.org/t/notation-of-movement-and-effort-dance-and-percussion/448
by buying the ebook, you help to support our explorations of joyful and human-scale computing!
however, you can also read these updates on our website and #gemini capsule :)

we just released version 1.0.3 of our introduction to #uxn 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!

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.

¿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.

Yesterday evening I carefully went to day 1 - 3 of the compudanzas #uxn 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 😅
