    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Certain ideas sing. They resonate in our bodies, touch some invisible place within.

Sometimes we encounter these ideas out in the world. Other times, we hear them in our minds. Sometimes they are language, other times feelings or thoughts. Whatever they are — they’re meaningful energy.

In the Ping Practice universe, we call these resonances “Pings”. 123

What — if anything — these “Pings” might mean and how we might use them is rarely clear in the moment. Their meaning often unfolds and evolves over time.

The fleeting nature of these Pings, and the uncertainty of their significance, can make deciding if and where to hold them (and how to work with them) unclear.

Ping Practice emerged precisely from this place.

Ping Practice is a journaling method and app designed to help you synthesize these fleeting bits of resonance into wisdom you are inspired and equipped to embody.

The method emerged through years of experimentation orbiting a central question:

How might I locate what I learn and experience in ways that equip me to apply them in the fleeting moments when I sense opportunities to do so?

Ping Practices continue to be shaped by an expansive body of pre-existing thought and through conversations with people who see making-meaning from what they experience as an act of survival.

"In one sense Ping Practice helps us tune into what we are feeling while becoming more mindful observers of our thoughts. But Ping Practice is also a tool for processing experiences and learning about ourselves.

James Pennebaker’s seminal work on the therapeutic effects of expressive writing show that externalizing thoughts and feelings reduces stress and enhances cognitive functioning. White and Epston’s Narrative Means to Therapeutic Ends builds on Pennebaker, showing how the expression of inner states in writing gives us perspective and ultimately creative agency in determining what our thoughts and feelings mean and how we will make sense of them.

    <title>Why Writing by Hand Beats Typing (in 6 Charts) | Edutopia</title>

    <link>https://www.edutopia.org/visual-essay/why-writing-by-hand-beats-typing-in-6-charts</link>
    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Typing may be faster, but the research shows that handwriting engages our brains in richer, more meaningful ways."

...

"01
A PEEK UNDER THE (NEURAL) HOOD

Compared with typing, writing by hand activates a broader network of brain regions—leading to a more durable “web” of learning."

...

"02
A SURPRISING LINK TO EARLY READING

Handwriting gives early decoding and spelling skills a big boost."

...

"03
THE MEMORY ADVANTAGE FOR OLDER STUDENTS

When information is handwritten instead of typed, the details are more deeply encoded and easier to recall."

...

"04
GOING SLOW, CONCEPTUALLY SPEAKING

When students write notes by hand, they’re more likely to slow down and process each idea—delivering astonishingly better results."

...

"05
BETTER NOTES DELIVER BETTER GRADES

Students who write notes by hand are more expressive—and more likely to earn As and Bs than students who type."

...

"06
BUT ALSO, TYPING CLOSES GAPS

Still, digital tools remain essential for making lessons accessible to all students."]]></description>

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Let me tell you my theory about AI psychosis.

A lot of people keep a lot of notes.

I keep a lot of notes too, that’s how I write this blog, and in particular I like the serendipity of running across old ideas in my own notes – that’s common for other people too (2021).

We used to call it having an outboard brain and it’s true, I think for a certain kind of person, your notes become part of your extended cognition, and you “know something” whether that knowledge is within your skull or within your notes, same same, it’s just a matter of look-up latency.

My theory is that allowing something else to write into your notes does something bad to your psyche.

I had a glimpse of this: a few years ago I asked ChatGPT to write a blog post in my style. (This was before chat could browse the web; my blog is well represented in the training data.)

It was pretty good so I pasted it into my notes as a record (but never posted it of course). I got scared off using ChatGPT to help with my blog pretty early when I was talking through an editing decision and it came up with a turn of phrase that was so perfect and so unique that I couldn’t resist it. But it didn’t represent any thinking that I had done to arrive at it, this perfect metaphor, so it wouldn’t bear my weight when I leant on it. Those two experiences terrified me.

Anyway so recently I was browsing my drafts folder and I ran across the bottom half of this fake blog post without noticing the context at the top, and it was like when the elevator drops faster than you’re expecting because I read these words but they didn’t feel buttressed with even a glimmer of memory in my head, so I was gaslighting myself – had I really written that note? I mean there it is, it sounds like me, but I can’t think around those words.

The feeling of not being able to trust the permanence and integrity of the physical world around you is one thing.

Not being able to trust what’s going on in your own mind is another.

Am I the same person as I was yesterday?

So unnerving.

***

All of which to say is that, for me, my personal theory is that AI psychosis comes from undermining your intrinsic faith in the workings of your own self.

And that comes from allowing an LLM that speaks in your voice to potentially write into your notes which, for a certain kind of person, is part of cognition itself. The AI doesn’t doesn’t need to actually change your notes, the potential is enough.

***

So I have this fear of risking my own psychic integrity, which has so far kept me away from allowing a personal agent to run on my own machine – I love automation but at a healthy arm’s length…"]]></description>

Emitido por Canal 10 de Córdoba en el mes de abril."

"Descripción

En sus cuadernos, Gustavo Fontán desarrolla los vínculos posibles entre el cine y la escritura, fundamentalmente la poesía, como si se tratara de una continuación del papel hacia la lente. Como si no fuera viable el cine sin ese movimiento. A través de la escritura, indaga sobre la mirada y la experiencia; despliega una reflexión que es siempre lateral: una forma de acceso indirecto hacia la interioridad del material que rodea y permite la construcción de preguntas que otorgan sustancia a una película. Escritura como pasaje a los efectos de la luz, escritura que abre el singular universo del cine de Fontán.

"Cuadernos del merodeo puede leerse como un poema en donde la 'cadencia y el ambiente de una palabra pueden pesar más que el sentido'. Gustavo Fontán, como atento lector de Saer, comprende que poesía y narración no son necesariamente procesos distintos. Y así asiste al despertar del sueño de la razón que se equivoca al creer que se pueda acceder a lo real con conceptos claros y distintos. La vida, lo real, están en un estado de fragilidad permanente, afirmó a propósito de El limonero real. Bitácora del fisgoneo, estos Cuadernos... registran la inquietud de la luz, los intersticios del tiempo, la fragilidad de las imágenes y de la vida, desligándose de 'ataduras argumentales'. Fontán piensa como filma y filma como piensa: poéticamente. 'Filmar los pliegues, filmar en los pliegues'.

Así registró en sus películas lo que en el río, al fluir, permanece; la poesía de Juanele en imágenes; el espesor del presente en el duelo; los vaivenes del espacio y sus titubeos; los rastros y la presencia/ausencia de quienes habitaron lo construído; la inquietud de la luz; la sombra de la luz y la luz de la sombra; la experiencia de la intemperie y las grietas del tiempo. En estos Cuadernos del merodeo editados por Cielo Invertido no encontraremos definición alguna de lo que el cine es; antes bien se trata de una invitación a alcanzar una experiencia sensible de él.""

"Cuadernos del merodeo

En sus cuadernos, Gustavo Fontán desarrolla los vínculos posibles entre el cine y la escritura, fundamentalmente la poesía, como si se tratara de una continuación del papel hacia la lente. Como si no fuera viable el cine sin ese movimiento. A través de la escritura, indaga sobre la mirada y la experiencia; despliega una reflexión que es siempre lateral: una forma de acceso indirecto hacia la interioridad del material que rodea y permite la construcción de preguntas que otorgan sustancia a una película. Escritura como pasaje a los efectos de la luz, escritura que abre el singular universo del cine de Fontán.

Gustavo Fontán nació en Banfield, Argentina. Se graduó en Licenciatura en Letras en la UBA y realizó estudios de Dirección de Cine en el Centro Experimental  de Realización Cinematográfica (ENERC).

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["I’ve tried all the major note-taking apps in the Apple ecosystem. For some years, starting more than a decade ago, I used Simplenote, then Drafts, then Bear. I used Ulysses for a while, though that’s really more of a text editor than a notes app. Obsidian, yep. Notion, yep. I tried Day One to take notes as well as keep a journal. I even tried Apple’s own Notes app, though I hate everything about it, starting with its ugly yellow color. Etc. (I’m not naming them all, so do not write me to ask “Have you tried … ?” Whatever it is, the answer is Yes: I have tried it.) My favorite was Notational Velocity, in its original form — I dislike all the supposedly more capable forks of it. 

After a long while, I finally came to realize that what all note-taking applications have in common, what they primarily feature, is for me a bug. What they all offer is a place to store text — and in some cases images, though that starts to take us into Everything Bucket territory. And yes, I’ve tried all the Everything Bucket apps as well, starting with Evernote and then moving to Yojimbo and then DEVONThink — among others. 

Anyway: the promise of the note-taking app is that you can jot down or copy bits of text, put them in folders or add tags or employ some other way to organize them, and then retrieve them later. But I didn’t retrieve them later. I dutifully tagged them and then … almost always forgot about them. If I happened to remember, then I could do a quick search and easily find them, but that was a rare event. Thus, the fact that all my little scraps of text were present and searchable did me no good at all. If I could have asked an app “Look through the hundreds of items in your database and find the five that would be of greatest interest to me right now,” and gotten a useful answer — well, then that app would have been tremendously useful to me. But technology hasn’t reached that point.

So for years I just kept on adding notes to apps and then forgetting about them. Lord knows what brilliant ideas of mine are hidden away in those now-neglected apps, because I have no idea how to search for them. I would just have to take time out to scroll through note after note after note, which of course makes the whole tagging-and-organizing thing pointless. 

My search for a proper notes app ended when I realized that what virtually all notes apps do is counterproductive for me. The answer, for me, turned out to be Tot. Tot is beautiful, simple, limited in its formatting possibilities, easy of access on all my devices, and — this is the absolutely essential thing — it allows me to make seven notes. Seven. That’s it.

What that means for me is this: when I want to store a chunk of text, written by me or by others, I put it in Tot. But then, after a few days, I’ve run out of storage spots. So then I take a look at my most recent additions to Tot and ask myself: What do I want to do with this? I can put it in a micro.blog post, put it in a post for this blog, create a draft of an essay containing it, add some task associated with it to my Reminders list, or delete it. Tot’s limitations force me into that decision, and for me that’s ideal. Textual things don’t just disappear into the depths of a database: they have to be dealt with, so I deal with them. Productive resistance for the win, once again!"]]></description>

[See also:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjSWwmg-JRM 

"Two nights ago, I erased everything from my digital second brain, including years of notes, quotes, and to-do lists. 

This drastic action brought relief and mental clarity. Building a second brain promised enhanced memory and productivity, but it turned into a mausoleum of old thoughts that stifled creativity. 

Reflecting on my sobriety and past mental frameworks, I realized that outsourcing my memory to digital tools made me dependent on structures rather than genuine thought.

"Two nights ago, I deleted everything.

Every note in Obsidian. Every half-baked atomic thought, every Zettelkasten slip, every carefully linked concept map. I deleted every Apple Note I’d synced since 2015. Every quote I’d ever highlighted. Every to-do list from every productivity system I’d ever borrowed, broken, or bastardized. Gone. Erased in seconds.

What followed: Relief. 

And a comforting silence where the noise used to be.

For years, I had been building what technologists and lifehackers call a “second brain.” The premise: capture everything, forget nothing. Store your thinking in a networked archive so vast and recursive it can answer questions before you know to ask them. It promises clarity. Control. Mental leverage.

But over time, my second brain became a mausoleum. A dusty collection of old selves, old interests, old compulsions, piled on top of each other like geological strata. Instead of accelerating my thinking, it began to replace it. Instead of aiding memory, it froze my curiosity into static categories.

And so…

Well, I killed the whole thing.

I’ve been sober for six years now; and that kind of milestone does something to your perception of time. It creates a before and an after, and it invites you - gently at first, then insistently - to take stock. A few weeks ago, looking back on my sobriety journey, I was digging through my archives, scrolling through old notes, old goals, old mental frameworks I had once treated like gospel. Systems layered on systems. Promises I had made to my future self, as if that self were an operating system waiting for updates.

Reading through these remnants, I felt a tightening in my chest. Not sadness, not nostalgia - a kind of existential lag. I could see how each iteration of my self was trying so earnestly to build a roadmap to something better. But what got me sober, what got me through the first one, two, three hard years - none of it was in those notes. 

It hit me: what got me here won’t get me where I need to be next.
The Promise of Total Capture

The modern PKM (Personal Knowledge Management) movement traces its roots through para-academic obsessions with systems theory, Luhmann’s Zettelkasten, and the Silicon Valley mythology of productivity as life. Roam Research turned bidirectional links into a cult. Obsidian let the cult go off-grid. The lore deepened. You weren’t taking notes. You were building a lattice of meaning. A library Borges might envy.

But Borges understood the cost of total systems. In “The Library of Babel,” he imagines an infinite library containing every possible book. Among its volumes are both perfect truth and perfect gibberish. The inhabitants of the library, cursed to wander it forever, descend into despair, madness, and nihilism. The map swallows the territory.

PKM systems promise coherence, but they often deliver a kind of abstracted confusion. The more I wrote into my vault, the less I felt. A quote would spark an insight, I’d clip it, tag it, link it - and move on. But the insight was never lived. It was stored. Like food vacuum-sealed and never eaten, while any nutritional value slips away. 

Worse, the architecture began to shape my attention. I started reading to extract. Listening to summarize. Thinking in formats I could file. Every experience became fodder. I stopped wondering and started processing.
The Mistaken Metaphor of the Brain

The “second brain” metaphor is both ambitious and (to a degree) biologically absurd. Human memory is not an archive. It is associative, embodied, contextual, emotional. We do not think in folders. We do not retrieve meaning through backlinks. Our minds are improvisational. They forget on purpose.

Merlin Donald, in his theory of cognitive evolution, argues that human intelligence emerged not from static memory storage but from external symbolic representation: tools like language, gesture, and writing that allowed us to rehearse, share, and restructure thought. Culture became a collective memory system - not to archive knowledge, but to keep it alive, replayed, and reworked.

In trying to remember everything, I outsourced the act of reflection. I didn’t revisit ideas. I didn’t interrogate them. I filed them away and trusted the structure. But a structure is not thinking. A tag is not an insight. And an idea not re-encountered might as well have never been had.
The Tyranny of Tools

Every tool changes the shape of the hand that uses it.

Obsidian is a brilliant piece of software. I love it, dearly. But like anything, without restraint, it can also be a trap. Markdown files in nested folders. Plugins that track your productivity. Graph views that suggest omniscience. There’s an illusion of mastery in watching your notes web into constellations. But constellations are projections. They tell stories. They do not guarantee understanding.

When I first started using PKM tools, I believed I was solving a problem of forgetting. Later, I believed I was solving a problem of integration. Eventually, I realized I had created a new problem: deferral. The more my system grew, the more I deferred the work of thought to some future self who would sort, tag, distill, and extract the gold.

That self never arrived.
The Anxiety of the Unread

There is a guilt that accompanies unread books, articles and blog posts. But there is a special anxiety reserved for unread lists of unread things. My reading list had become a totem of imagined wisdom. A shrine to the person I would be, if only I read everything on it.

When I deleted that list, I lost nothing real. I know what I want to read. I know the shape of my attention. I do not need a 7,000-item database to prove that I have taste or ambition.

This mirrors a deeper psychological error. The belief that by naming a goal, you are closer to achieving it. That by storing a thought, you have understood it. That by filing a fact, you have earned the right to deploy it.

This is productivity as performance. It is a symptom of modern intellectual insecurity: the fear of losing track, of forgetting, of not being caught up. But caught up to what? The feed? The discourse? The meme cycle?

There is no finish line in the pursuit of knowing. Only presence.
Destruction as Design

Nietzsche burned early drafts. Michelangelo destroyed sketches. Leonardo left thousands of pages unfinished. The act of deletion is not a failure of recordkeeping. It is a reassertion of agency.

In design, we speak of subtraction as refinement. A sculptor chips away everything that is not the figure. A musician cuts a line that clutters the melody. But in knowledge work, we hoard. We treat accumulation as a virtue.

But what if deletion is the truer discipline?

I don’t think I want a map of everything I’ve ever read. I want a mind free to read what it needs. I want memory that forgets gracefully. I want ideas that resurface not because I indexed them, but because they mattered.

What does it feel like to start again?

Like swimming without clothes. Light. Naked. A little vulnerable. But cleaner than I’ve felt in years.

I write knowing it may disappear. I highlight books knowing the highlights will fade. I trust that what matters will return, will find its way to the surface. I no longer worship the permanence of text.

There is a Hebrew word: “zakhor.” It means both memory and action. To remember, in this tradition, is not to recall a fact. It is to fulfill an ethical obligation. To make the past present through attention.

My new system is, simply, no system at all. I write what I think. I delete what I don’t need. I don’t capture everything. I don’t try to. I read what I feel like. I think in conversation, in movement, in context. I don’t build a second brain. I inhabit the first. Drawing on something DHH (37Signals) told me a couple of years ago, I’ve started keeping a single note called WHAT where I write down a handful of things I have to remember. The important bits will find their way back.

I don’t want to manage knowledge. I want to live it.

I still love Obsidian. And I’m planning on using it again. From scratch. And with a deeper level of curation and care - not as a second brain, but as a workspace for the one I already have.

And for the first time in years, I’m actually excited by that."]]></description>

Everything from currency to noodle varieties to film references make their way into small books brimming with travel ephemera and observations.

Naranja is currently working on a thicker book than he has in the past, which is taking more time to fill, along with an illustrated card project called 2050, which merges science, tech events, and his signature “beauty of note-taking” aesthetic. The artist has also reproduced some of his sketches in The Nautilus Manuscript, a small batch-printed, hand-bound edition available for sale in his shop.

    <title>how i'm taking notes (for now) - by Brandon</title>

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["A little while ago, I asked people to tell me about their preferred annotation practices. I am not a very nosey person, and I don’t care much about the mental processes of other artists or scholars, but I am powerless to resist the idiosyncratic material culture that arises from a particular writer going about their work.

I don’t care if you commune with the spirits or how many drafts you do or don’t do. I don’t care if your stories begin with a character or a question. I don’t care if you outline or let the muse guide you. I really, truly, truly do not care. Tell me about your pencils. Your notebooks. Do you draw margins on the right-hand side? If so, how wide? Do you use a special paper? Do you have a favorite eraser? Lately, I’ve been thinking about getting a paperweight—do you have one? Can I see it? Talk to me about your folders. I’m partial to the tri-fold ones common to Canada and Europe.

In some ways, this is deeply prosaic and pointless. It’s hard to imagine that you need this exact kind of eraser to make your writing good. Because you don’t, actually. However, I do like hearing about the ways people have made a comfortable, cozy corner inside of their process. The ways they’ve made their process material, solid. Maybe it’s bad to admit this, but I’m not interested in any writer’s life outside of what kind of fountain pen they use. Don’t tell me anything else, I don’t want to know—it’s boring.

Notetaking sits at an intersection between the material and the nonmaterial in writing, being both a physical process and a mental process. For a long time, I didn’t really take notes as I read. I didn’t know how. But over the years, I built a process of notetaking that was mostly underlining and writing gay in the margins. This process was sufficient for my needs at the time: consuming works and laughing at them as I read. I wasn’t writing criticism or writing essays that had a significant aspect of research or analysis. I was writing little personal essays of which I was the subject and the main source of ideas. Again, this was fine because the scale of my nonfiction projects was always personal and there wasn’t some huge need for me to read five books and then craft an argument. My essays were about how sad I was, and I didn’t need a source for that.

However, my needs have changed. I am writing more criticism now. I write reviews. I also give lectures and talks. I teach classes. All of this requires a bit more organization and thought than writing lol gay in the margins. It also requires more detailed recall of the information I am reading, and more analysis too. I am also writing my first long piece of nonfiction—a book of literary criticism. I don’t want to write a book of criticism that doesn’t have any books in it. I would like to write the kind of literary criticism that has moved me over the last couple of years, a book rich with reference and analysis and close reading rather than a series of witty bon mots and descriptions of art and a pathological fear of being uncool or too literary.

I recognized that this would require a more robust annotation practice than I have. I took to social media and asked people how they went about their own annotating and research. Most people came back with some version of I underline and make margin notes. At first, I despaired because I do that! I do! I underline! I underline (perhaps too much sometimes, but I can at least acknowledge when I do that!) and jot in the margins.

Then I watched a few videos on YouTube about “how to take notes” and this one guy, a philosophy YouTuber (he’s plain-looking, but light-haired and nerdy, and I need him kinda bad, ngl, but he’s straight and married, which seems to be the only kind of man I can feel physical attraction toward, unfortunately), explained that after he annotates a book, he “exports” the annotations to notecards after a given session or at the end of reading the book. He got the process from this other guy who exports to his commonplace book, which is a big plastic tub filled with binders of notecards strapped with rubber bands. Someone else “exported” to a journal, another commonplace book, for easy reference and recall. Other people used various cloud-based programs like Notion to break books down into bullet points for ease and flow. There is a whole sector of productivity YouTube and BuJo YouTube that have converged around the best way to create “idea clouds” from the books you read.

There is a rather distressing undercurrent to some of these approaches. The distressing undercurrent is of course AI, and the fact that many of these software hook into AI services to quickly summarize a book or even to turn summarized notes into other forms, generating books, videos, podcasts, or even short films, etc. I am trying very hard not to think about the min-max theology of the algorithm that finds its greatest avatar and evangelist in the ProductivityBro.

If you avoid looking too hard at the shadow of AI that hangs over this process in the context of the digital contemporary, you can begin to appreciate the beauty in approaching a text like a whole tuna or beef carcass that must be processed and into cuts that can be processed into food.

Anyway, I thought to myself, I do the underlining part, but not the exporting part. To see if it actually made a difference, I started testing out the exporting in my teaching. A couple weeks ago, I taught two rather complicated essays by the theorist György Lukács. I had read the essays and was familiar with them, but it’s quite another thing to teach the essays to students. I wanted to be able to answer their questions about the arguments raised in the essays and to help clarify anything they hadn’t understood. After all, I hadn’t understood everything in the pieces either the first time I read them either and the whole point of discussion is to be able to ask questions. I wanted the class discussions to be productive and interesting for them. This required reading the pieces more carefully this time around, and making sure I understood more of what Lukács was saying. Especially the bits where he’s very idiosyncratic.

This seemed like a perfect time to try out a new annotation style. I read the pieces as I normally did, underlining, making margin notes. Then, I took a couple hours to export the underlined passages. That is, I typed all of the quotes I had underlined and wrote a couple sentences analyzing the quote, and making a note to myself about why I thought it was significant or funny. The thing about having to type the quotes is that I was able to identify when I’d underlined something because it would be necessary to the discussion and when I had underlined it because the writing was good or particularly sharp or mean in a way I liked. The quotes that weren’t necessary to articulating his argument or my read of his argument, I didn’t type. The ones that were, I did. Having to type the quotes with my own human hands exerted a selective pressure that made me think even more about the piece and that deepened my understanding of it.

I think those classes went really well. Those discussions were the most prepared I’ve felt all semester. It’s not that the craft discussions have been going badly all semester. Not to toot my own horn, but I think they have gone well! It’s just that I felt more prepared and I had engaged the text more deeply. I could guide us with more confidence and ease than in previous sessions where I’d just underlined and written margin comments.

I’ve also been using this technique to prepare for my Henry James seminars over the last month or so. I read and underline, and then I write by hand the quotes that I’ve underlined. This makes recall during discussion so much easier. I can call upon more relevant examples. The text shimmers at the surface of my thoughts. It feels more immediate to me. Also, as I write the quotes, I am thinking about the text, and an argument begins to build over the course of the writing session. Connections occur to me in a way that was only very subliminal before. When I export, I feel that I move from a passive to a more active reading role. My notes and underlines have a function now.

The last couple of days, I have been in chilly Vancouver. I had an event on Thursday night, but before that event, I had to give my Henry James seminar. I spent the early part of the day “exporting” my underlines to my writing pad. It was very soothing. But also, I reflected on the fact that I really do feel…better? More informed? More prepared? Idk, I feel something different when I prepare this way. Not just underlining and annotating, but moving my notes from the book to a document. It makes them more readily accessible to me.

Over the summer, I trialed a different approach that my friend Adam Dalva showed me. When he is reviewing a book or going to discuss it with the author, underlines and then keeps a running index of page numbers and brief quotes in the front of the book so that he can draw on it. I did this for a few books I reviewed this summer and to prepare for a couple of events. It was good, but I feel that the current method is superior, at least for me and my uses. The consolidation is greater, and it’s easier to then go on to use those quotes for something else—an essay, a newsletter, a quote, etc.

I posted a picture of my notes for the James seminar on social media, and somebody asked me if it slows me down. Someone else said that they liked the idea of it but time :(. Someone else asked if there is a software that can speed up this process because the slowness is probably not worth it.

I don’t really…understand the line of thought. I mean, I posted a picture of my notepad and said something like “The people who said that exporting your underlines were right. It does help.” And some people were like, “Does it slow you down?” But I feel like they are asking a question without really knowing what they are asking. Does it slow down what? The notetaking? The reading? Whatever is downstream of those activities for you? Why is speed being taken as some sort of de facto virtue? We know that a lot of things that are done quickly can also be shit. Slowly made things can also be shit. Speed is not really a useful in determining quality or efficacy unless what you are after is speed.

I can’t help but to think that a subtle reframing has occurred when I am asked questions like this. Questions that reframe productive away from “produces results that are good for my use case” to “produces results FAST.” Those are not the same thing.

This notetaking technique obviously won’t work if you are trying to prepare a text five minutes before class? But also…why would you think that this technique would work for you if you are trying to prepare a text five minutes before class? Like, a productive notetaking technique is a technique that produces results suitable to your uses—be it writing an essay, a novel, a book, a memo, etc, whatever—and sometimes that suitability will reflect time and speed, sure. But not always. A useful notetaking strategy is not always about speed. I recognize that we live in a capitalist hellscape and the language of commodification has rotted all of our minds and stolen our souls, sure. But that doesn’t mean that we should or need to concede to its logic at every turn.

I mean, surely, we all know that there are some things which simply take time. There is no way to min-max around this fact. Some things take time. And if you want to do them, you have to budget the time to do them. It’s also true that sometimes, there isn’t enough time to do the things we would like to do in the fashion we would like to do them. And that can be very frustrating. Sucky. We can acknowledge that certain structural factors—patriarchy, capitalism, sexism, racism—mean that certain groups of people are less likely to have all the time they would like or need to do the things they need to do or would like to do how they would like to do them. This is legitimately frustrating. Enraging. Unfair. And I agree, that sucks. It is one of the great examples of inequality of our era. People should be able to have time! And subsidized childcare! And freedom from tyranny and the evils of occupation. And a living wage! I could go on, but you get my point.

To go back to AI for a moment. I think that justifications for AI art and the Min-Max Optimization Gospel stem from a cheapening of the idea of time in the same way that other emanations of Capitalism stem from the cheapening of labor. Or they seem to operate according to a similar syntax. What I mean is that you often hear people defend AI as a democratization of tools and proficiency. Like, why should someone have to spend 10,000 hours learning how to use Photoshop or how to make movies, when they can just script it and have a machine generate the image. It’s productive. This cheapens the idea of time, to me, anyway. Why should one have to invest time and effort into acquiring proficiency, why should that be expected of these people whose time would be better served thinking of ways to wring money out of a chatbox, I guess. We have this idea that not only should things cost us very little in terms of effort and also material resources, they should cost us very little in terms of time too.

In the same way that I think there are accessibility and democratization of tools arguments for some kinds of AI, there are arguments to be made about the Optimization Gospel benefiting people who are systematically under-resourced in terms of time. However, those structural issues should have structural solutions. Everything else is a temporary stop-gap and represents the devolution of responsibility back to the individual when the failing wasn’t theirs in the first place.

Anyway, I don’t know how to answer that person’s question about whether or not this technique slows me down. For what I am using it for, it is perfect. If I had other needs, I’d just, idk, try something else."]]></description>

"I Didn’t Want It to Be True, but the Medium Really Is the Message" (2022)
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/07/opinion/media-message-twitter-instagram.html

"Every day, we consume a mind-boggling amount of information. We scan online news articles, sift through text messages and emails, scroll through our social-media feeds — and that’s usually before we even get out of bed in the morning. In 2009, a team of researchers found that the average American consumed about 34 gigabytes of information a day. Undoubtedly, that number would be even higher today.

But what are we actually getting from this huge influx of information? How is it affecting our memories, our attention spans, our ability to think? What might this mean for today’s children, and future generations? And what does it take to read — and think — deeply in a world so flooded with constant input?

Maryanne Wolf is a researcher and scholar at U.C.L.A.’s School of Education and Information Studies. Her books “Proust and the Squid: The Story and Science of the Reading Brain” and “Reader, Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World” explore the relationship between the process of reading and the neuroscience of the brain. And, in Wolfe’s view, our era of information overload represents a historical inflection point where our ability to read — truly, deeply read, not just scan or scroll — hangs in the balance.

We discuss why reading is a fundamentally “unnatural” act, how scanning and scrolling differ from “deep reading,” why it’s not accurate to say that “reading” is just one thing, how our brains process information differently when we’re reading on a Kindle or a laptop as opposed to a physical book, how exposure to such an abundance of information is rewiring our brains and reshaping our society, how to rediscover the lost art of reading books deeply, what Wolf recommends to those of us who struggle against digital distractions, what parents can do to to protect their children’s attention, how Wolf’s theory of a “biliterate brain” may save our species’ ability to deeply process language and information and more.

One thing I was unhappy with so far, was that I could not have my highlights from my Kindle on there. This would be super powerful, as you could search through all your highlights you ever took.

Amazon offers access to your highlights on there website, but unfortunately these do only include books you bought on amazon directly. There are some solutions for Evernote to sync your highlights (https://the-digital-reader.com/2019/03/17/dozen-tools-managing-kindle-notes-highlights/), but they mostly focus on the few highlights available online. And the solutions do not work for Notion.”

Obsidian is built to be extensible. With 18 core plugins and counting, set up your own toolkit and get running in minutes.

You'll even be able to install third party plugins or build your own once Obsidian reaches v1.0. Sky's the limit.

"forever"

In our age when cloud services can shut down, get bought, or change privacy policy any day, the last thing you want is proprietary formats and data lock-in.

With Obsidian, your data sits in a local folder. Never leave your life's work held hostage in the cloud again.

Plain text Markdown also gives you the unparalleled interoperability to use any kind of sync, encryption, or data processing that works with plain text files."]]></description>

    <title>Why Won't Computers Do What We Want Them To? -</title>

    <link>http://www.loosewireblog.com/2020/04/why-wont-computers-do-what-we-want-them-to.html</link>
    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Computers and the software that runs them have long denied us the basic right of dictating to them — not letters and grocery lists, but of what they should actually do for us – most importantly in the first step of thinking: the art of taking notes.

In the mid 80s I was studying history in London, and the first consumer PC came out: the Amstrad. I was immediately intrigued, though I’m no techie. I remember going into Dixon’s one rainy winter afternoon on Tottenham Court Road and explaining my problem to the salesman. It was simple, I thought: I am a collector of events, and I want a computer which will do exactly what I currently do, but store it so I don’t have to carry around this pile of paper. It was simple, I told him. And I explained how I took my history notes, involving two or three basic steps. He looked at me blankly and tried to change the subject. “It comes with a printer and three spare disks.” I bought it anyway. But oh, how naive was I.

Because the reality is that 35 years on — 35 years! — there is still no way to do this. No app allows you to draw lines on a page and then add pieces to it wherever you want. I should know, I’ve tried hundreds of them (and if anyone does read this, I will get responses like ‘Have you tried OneNote?’ or ‘Aeon Timeline allows you to do just that.’ Yes, and no it doesn’t. No app, in short, is smart enough to just ask you what you have in mind and just evolve into that, to help you shape the app in the way you want.

This is the fundamental failure of computers, and computer software. As a technology it’s failed to really find a place in our lives that we’re comfortable with, and that’s because it has demanded too much change in our behaviours. We are mostly compliant: back in the late 2000s executives at telcos were worried 3G was for nought, because people didn’t show any interest in using their phones for anything more than calls and SMS. It took Steve Jobs to change that, by building a consumer device we craved to hold. The rest came naturally, because of a great UI, but no one is claiming that the smartphone adapted to us; we adapted to it. That’s not to say it’s not useful, it’s just not useful in a way that we might have envisaged, if we ever sat down to think about it.

Indeed, the Apple revolution, which I would date from about 2008 cannot be detached from the broader mobile data revolution, which we’re just emerging from. This was a revolution in interfaces, but it wasn’t a revolution in terms of computing. We have become more productive, in narrow terms — we are online a lot more, we send more messages, we might even finish projects quicker — but no one is claiming that our computers mould themselves to our thinking. It’s apt that movies like Her try to explore what that might mean — that our computers learn our thinking and adapt themselves to it.

So back to me and my history problem. There of course are answers to it, but they all require us understanding the mind of the person or people who developed them. And I’m not ungrateful to these apps; they have long been welcome bedfellows. From TheBrain to Roam, MyInfo to Tinderbox, TiddlyWiki to DEVONthink, they have all rewarded the hours — days, weeks, even — I have invested in trying to understand them. But therein lies the problem. The only reward one can get is if one adapts one’s own mind to that of the creator’s vision, and, however amazing that vision is, this in itself is an admission of failure. I don’t want to have to report everything to someone else’s vision, I have one myself, but there’s no software on this earth in 35 years of looking that I can wrestle into submission to my simple vision.

This is not to say the apps in question are a failure. I love them dearly and still use many of them. I have used my pulpits to promote them, and have gotten to know some of the developers behind them. These people are geniuses, without exception, and it’s not their fault their tools cannot be more than interpretations of that genius. We just lack the tools to tell our computers what to do from scratch.

Such as

<blockquote>‘Take an A4 sheet of paper, turn it horizontally so it’s in landscape, and then draw three perpendicular lines equidistant apart. Allow the user to write anywhere between the lines, and interpret a three-line dash as the end of each nugget. Interpret the digits at the beginning of each nugget as a date, which can be as vague as a decade and as specific as a minute. Order each nugget chronologically, whichever line it sits between, relative to each other, with gaps between according to the dates. etc etc’.</blockquote>

If only.

I still don’t see why I can’t have that software. I don’t see why I couldn’t have it in 1985. I probably could get a developer to whip something up, but then that’s already demonstrated the failure I’m talking about. I want the computer to do it for me, and not being able to, to have to rely on someone else’s coding skills, or even my own, means it’s not doing that.

This feeds into a broader point. Tiago Forte, a young productivity guru, wrote an interesting thread about the serial failure of hypertext, which was a precursor (and loser) to the simpler Web, and the lessons we can draw from it. In the case he describes, Roam. The simple truth: taking notes is a niche area because it’s not taken seriously at any stage of the education process (my history chronology capture was shown to me by the late and excellent Ralph B. Smith, who understood the power of note taking; I can still remember him demonstrating the technique in our first class. It has stuck with me ever since.) Note-taking is the essence of understanding, retaining, collating, connecting and propounding. And yet it’s mostly done in dull notebooks, or monochrome apps, none of which really mould themselves to what we write, take pictures of, record or otherwise store. (And no, Clippy doesn’t count.)

Tiago may well be right: the trajectory of knowledge information management apps (and there you have it; already segmented into what sounds like the most boring cocktail party ever) is that they just aren’t sexy enough to break out of a niche. Evernote was closest, but it got dragged down in part by its dependence on a vocal core of users who pushed it one way and its desperate need to justify its valuation by trying to go value. Truth is, people don’t value collecting information, in part because it’s so easy to recall: even with my 60GB DEVONthink databases, I more often than not Google something because I know I can find the document more quickly that way than in my offline library.

But this doesn’t explain the pre-Google world. Why did we let software go in the wrong direction by not demanding it submit to our will, not the other way around? Well, the truth is probably that computers were basic things, oversized calculators and typewriters for the most part. Sure it helped us write snazzier-looking letters, but heaven forbid us doodling on them, or moving the address around beyond the margins.

We’re still hidebound by our computers, so much so that we don’t realise it. I am rebuilding my life around the new tools, like Roam, and old ones like Tinderbox — a wonderful piece of exotica that is massive for those of us who like to poke around in a piece of software, but which basically means poking around in the head of its developers — and I get a lot out of them. But I am keenly aware that I would rather be just telling a blank computer screen to “take an A4 sheet of paper…”

    <title>Journalism + Annotation = ❤️️ - FOLD</title>
    <dc:date>2015-06-03T06:30:31+00:00</dc:date>
    <link>https://readfold.com/read/alexishope/journalism-annotation-3-GkLGdCJ2</link>
    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["With pen and paper, it's easy to annotate. You can highlight text, circle relevant parts of an image, add comments, and doodle in the margins. Digital annotation is a bit trickier, but these annotations have the potential to be shared with a much wider audience. Because journalism increasingly presents us with a deluge of information in all forms, has an archival nature, and offers us a way to understand the world around us, journalism and annotation are natural BFFs.

Annotation has a long history as part of the original conception of the web. Today, the most common form of annotation we see online is commenting, which has a complex culture. Typically comments are buried at the bottom of the page, hard to sort through, and challenging to moderate. Location-specific annotations, when they exist, are often platform-specific (for now, that's the case here on FOLD, too).

This Wednesday, I attended the Annotation Summit hosted by the Poynter Foundation at the New York Times building to talk about some of these issues. The purpose of this event was to bring together people working on annotation from different angles (academics, makers of publishing platforms, members of standards groups, and media companies) to discuss how annotation can help reimagine journalism and strengthen democracy."

    <title>Your Nostalgia Isn’t Helping Me Learn — The Synapse — Medium</title>

"These stories keep popping up, recycling the same studies and confirming someone’s intuition that the “good old-fashioned way” is better.

But contrary to these claims, I would not have made it through my years of university courses without the technology I use every day. And I don’t mean specific “assistive technology” designed with “disabilities” in mind. I’m talking here about the notes I make on my phone when I’m chatting with someone, which serve as an extension of my brain — the course project documents, folders of articles, collected syllabi, images, screenshots, and more that are always available on my laptop or anywhere through my synchronized folders.

I rely on the over 170 notebooks in Evernote where I practically wrote my entire MA thesis and where I track all current projects, personal and academic. I worked a full time job for much of my undergraduate education and part of my MA and was able to do this because of the ability to search through all 70,000+ email messages from the last 15 years, the ability to search inside a journal article, search a PDF of a book and copy/paste the text. This technology is assistive for me as a student very simply because all technology is assistive technology.

…

“Research Shows”

Surely we can agree then that all technology is assistive. But what about in the classroom? What’s missing from these popular articles when they claim technology is a distraction in the classroom? How do they conclude assistive technology is getting in the way of learning when so many students like myself rely on it? And what are the consequences of banning technology in the classroom?

I’ll start by taking that article from Vox and looking at some of the claims. After that, I’ll look at what’s happening in classrooms where technology is banned.

I. The Vox article defines learning as remembering information. That’s funny, because learning is not memorizing, and I think all educators would agree on that.

At the same time that many educators will tell us testing misses the mark in evaluating students and that learning isn’t about facts and figures but about critical thinking skills, articles like this are shared widely with the opposite message: learning is your “ability to remember information.” But it isn’t, it’s your ability to synthesize information, think critically, and evaluate claims.

II. This article claims the problem with taking notes on laptops is that students “usually just mindlessly type everything a professor says.” But this isn’t actually a claim about taking notes on laptops vs. paper notebooks, this is an issue of note taking skills. I wouldn’t conflate the Vox article with the study it cites here, but on this point what Vox reports matches the abstract of the study quite well. I don’t agree, instead I’d suggest that if you have good note taking skills you can take good notes in any format.

If you are taught to discern what matters in a lecture or discussion or while reading, you can learn to take useful notes about anything in any format. This problem they bring up of students acting as stenographers is an issues of learning to learn, learning to think critically and yes these are skills that students need. The fact that they don’t have them certainly isn’t the fault of laptops, in fact we should be grateful that we can see they don’t have them by how they are (mis)using the laptops. As educators do we really like the idea that students can only decide what matters because “they can’t write fast enough to get everything down”?

III. The article says students who use laptops “have something unrelated to class” on the screen about 40% of the time. So…. they’re actually talking about a failure to “learn” among students who aren’t using the technology to engage in the class at all? These students are chatting with friends, shopping, doing whatever. So, what does this have to do with the technology or taking notes on a laptop? What does this have to do with using a laptop to learn? Nothing. But still, we get this summary “Research shows students who use laptops perform more poorly in classes.”

IV. Of course, the whole argument is all summed up as common sense, validated by science! What could go wrong with that and with popular reporting about it? If science AND common sense are clear on this — well, it must be true for all students, or maybe not? It certainly isn’t true for me or for other students I’ve seen and spoken with.

I’m picking on this Vox article because it is precisely this kind of article that is shared on Facebook and Twitter and through email lists, without being carefully read, without being critically analyzed. And it winds up standing in for well thought out technology policy and pedagogy in classrooms. I think it’s pretty ironic that the same people who get so excited about the article’s title (“Why you should take notes by hand — not on a laptop”) because it validates their pre-existing distrust of “technology” (i.e. everything invented after they were born), these same people then fail to think critically about the argument in the article. Hmmm…. Maybe they’re actually the ones who have trouble thinking critically when using a laptop?"

…

"Classrooms on the Anti-Tech Bandwagon

I’m now seeing Professors jumping on this bandwagon and proudly banning technology in the classroom. And even those who don’t are giving students lectures in class about how we should ban e-books at the university library, and telling students who use laptops in class they should really be writing in a notebook, that is, if they really want to learn… Faculty are even adding notes to their syllabi …"

…

"The pressure to use “real books” and write in a notebook (preferably a moleskine, right?) has emerged as part of a growing anti-technology fetish among academics, and popular culture broadly. I get the appeal and I love books! I would love it if I could do that, I want all paper books, a room full of them, with ferns and armchairs and whisky and whatever — but it just isn’t how I learn. And it’s expensive, and you have to move them around. And you can’t search in them in the same way. The more precarious academic lives become the more a book collection is a luxury many can’t afford in terms of cost and other factors.

For students like me, technology use in the classroom comes down to a question of how we learn. I need to be able to search a book, copy and paste passages. I’m a scholar because I have technology that allows me to organize, sort, and synthesize information that I wouldn’t otherwise be able to work with. I didn’t learn to be a scholar with paper and pen, or with a typewriter. And I wouldn’t have been able to make it through my degree programs, and excel at my studies, write a thesis, publish papers — without being able to use this technology. I, and many students out there like me, rely on laptops, tablets, phones, and online software in the classroom because it is all assistive technology."]]></description>

https://web.archive.org/web/20150221135741/http://revdancatt.com/2015/02/17/the_pen ]

"I've been asked about my pen (for reals) a couple of times, so I thought I'd write a blog post about it. It's a Tombow Zoom 707 Ballpoint Pen (amazon UK/US), it cost £28 and I bought it for myself as a Christmas present.

I keep two Field Notes notebooks in my pocket, at night I take them out and put them on the bedside table. My life is dense, not hectic, not crazy busy, just every moment is filled. We have three kids, we home educate, the start-up I'm involved in is blowing up, I try to swim, I try to run, I'm learning the bass, I try and put together a podcast that takes an age, sometimes I even try to write a blog post or two. In all of that there's hardly any time to do other stuff, although that doesn't stop me thinking about other stuff. That other stuff goes down in one of the two notebooks.

When I think of something I often can't get to a laptop or my phone in time, I tried, the thoughts don't stay in my head long enough to survive the gauntlet of children asking me things on the way upstairs. If you've watched the film Memento it's like that scene where he's looking around for a pen to write the thing down before he forgets it. I decided I needed notebooks and a pen with me at all times.

I think it's the most I've ever spent on a pen.

Before this I used the Field Notes pen that came with the notebooks. It's a good pen, feels nice to hold, flows well but the clip doesn't clip it in my pocket properly. I can't slide it into my jeans without having to put a fingernail round the back of the clip to make sure it clips properly. When I sit down the pen didn't stay in the same place.

It was all kinds of wrong.

The Zoom 707 slides into the pocket right next to the seam, and better still it stays there, after all I didn't want to lose a £28 pen. For the next few days I'd reach down and feel for the red ball on the clip, to know it was still there.

Now it's a reflex action, I'll brush my hand past the side seam of my jeans and feel if the pen's clip is still there. When I feel it I know I can't forget anything, life is speeding on but in that one moment I know I haven't left anything behind. If I need to remember something it's in the notebook, if it's in the notebook I don't need to remember it. I can clear my mind and move onto the next thing.

When I stop to take a moment, I can touch the red ball feel it against my fingertips and the memory of the last thing I wrote comes back to me. It's a shortcut to having to open the notebook and read it back.

It's a memory machine, a meditation device and an anchor."]]></description>

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["What is Commonplace?

I write quite a bit, usually in Markdown, but I usually keep all my markdown files scattered around my hard-drive. Commonplace is a simple wiki-like system to store and browse your markdown files. It works by reading .md files from a directory you configure (my advice would be to keep this directory backed up through Dropbox). The name draws inspiration from commonplace books.

Commonplace is not meant to be a markdown editor, even though it includes basic editing capabilities. There are a number of tools that do the markdown editing job extremely well - I happen to use Byword for Mac but you get to choose your own poison. If you edit the markdown files in an external editor, changes are reflected here after a refresh."]]></description>

    <title>A Friend Visits my Slotin Notes - Just Wrought</title>
    <dc:date>2014-01-24T23:17:53+00:00</dc:date>
    <link>http://www.paulmullin.org/just-wrought/2013/08/nypl-draft.html</link>
    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["And just like that, Thia Stephan Hyde was making plans to  pay my notes a visit.  All that day she updated me with emails and pictures  from her time with my darlings. At the end of it she sent me the following lovely email, which she has graciously allowed me post. Reading it felt like an injection of light straight into my worn-out artist’s heart."

…

"There is a sub-genre of theatre people who are absolute full-on theatre geeks. We are the ones who revel not only in the delight and the accolades of the performances themselves, but who glory in the research that leads up to the live show. Theatre geeks don’t think of it as “homework”, theatre geeks actually get off on endless hours of dramaturgy, historical research and literary cross-referencing, and GO off on intellectual tangents that may not have any direct correlation with any actual decision put into the work of rehearsal or performance. . .  though I insist that you never, ever know what tiny tidbit of historical backstory or arcane research may lead to a tiny choice that lifts a performance from serviceable to inspired.

Anyway, when playwright Paul Mullin mentioned on Face Book that he wondered if someone in New York might have a chance to go visit some materials he had loaned to the Library for the Performing Arts here in town, I was an instantly enthusiastic volunteer! (and I am already registered as a researcher at said library, because – why? I am a theatre geek. You got it.)"

…

"About 25 minutes later, the boxes arrived, very officially delivered on a cart, signed out from the page who brought them to the librarian, and then signed out again from him to me. I was told to turn in my pen, as only pencils are allowed at the desks, and was told that yes, I could take photos of the material. But I could only have one box at a time, and could only remove one folder at a time from each box. Where to start, where to start? I guessed that “Box 1” was the earliest of the papers (Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding!!), and I started with the “generative notes” folder, which was fascinating.  Truly, from just a few scribbled words on a few pages (the very first said: “The relationship of horror and happiness”) through longer philosophical paragraphs and charts of dramatis personae and timelines through feedback from early draft read-throughs, I got to see the “birth” of a play."

…

"And SO much more. Honestly, I found almost every scribble compelling.

Moving on to other folders, I found out:

That Paul’s own father had been a physicist. (I never knew this.)

That a fellow named Thomas Keenan who was associated with Los Alamos after the fact thought the play contained a “disturbing amount of non-pertinent philosophy and mental meandering”. (Paul pointed out that of course THAT is of what a play consists. . .  Hamlet, for example)

That a CD was being rushed to “Anzide’s”, which tickled me because I adore Jim Anzide, and got to work with him in a Circle X production of a play written by another favorite of mine, Tom Jacobson.

That Louis Slotin was not covered by insurance and that the US Government haggled and dragged its heels over compensating his family and returning his belongings to them. And that though they didn’t want to do so at first, eventually the government decided that it would be good to give sick leave pay to the other scientists for the days they had been hospitalized, as it had “been determined advisable in order to ensure confidence on the part of employees . . . who may perform similar operations or experiments in the future.” Sigh.

That I had forgotten how we all used to live by the FAX machine! The faxes, the faxes, the piles of FAXES!"]]></description>

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["The celebrity curator may be a phenomenon on the rise, but before Klaus Biesenbach and Paola Antonelli, there was Hans Ulrich Obrist. Obrist, who’s currently the co-director of exhibitions and programs and director of international programs at London’s Serpentine Gallery, has a list of curatorial accomplishments so long, it’s daunting. He started out small enough, organizing a show in his kitchen in 1991 (he was 23) that included contributions from Christian Boltanski and Fischli & Weiss; in the decades since, he’s curated and co-curated more than 250 exhibitions, including the first Berlin Biennale and the first Manifesta. He’s also known for his ongoing conceptual projects, among them do it, a roving show built around artist-given instructions for viewers, and The Interview Project, for which he’s racked up more than 2,000 hours of conversation so far, with artists, writers, philosophers, scientists, and others.

It turns out he’s also been taking notes the whole time — making diagrams and sketches, scribbling down ideas and keywords. And when artist Paul Chan, who’s also the founder and publisher of Badlands Unlimited, found out that these copious notes and drawings existed, he knew he wanted to release them.

“I wanted to publish them because I’m surprised they exist, still,” Chan told Hyperallergic over email. “Badland’s publishing program is mindlessly simple: we publish things that no one knew existed. The poems of Yvonne Rainer, speeches on democracy by Saddam Hussein, afternoon interviews of Marcel Duchamp, and now this. I didn’t know he made them. Did you?”

The resulting book, Think Like Clouds, premieres at the New York Art Book Fair, where Badlands has also mounted a small exhibition of the some of the artworks — or whatever you might call them. “I don’t know if these drawings are important,” Chan said. “I don’t even know if they are in fact drawings. This is to me their appeal.”

Badlands sent us six of Obrist’s sketches specifically related to his curatorial practice:"]]></description>

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Hey, the dev team gets all these cool visual analytics, code metrics, version control, revision tagging, configuration management, continuous integration ... and the UX design team just passes around Photoshop files?

Taking clues from DevOps and Lean UX, "DesignOps" advocates more detailed and durable terminology about the cycle of user research, design and production. DesignOps seeks to first reduce the number of design artifacts, to eliminate the pain of prolonged design decisions. DesignOps assumes that the remaining design artifacts aren't actionable until they are reasonably archived and linked in a coherent way that serves the entire development team.

This talk will introduce the idea of DesignOps with the assumption that the audience has experience with a basic user research cycle — iterative development with any kind of user feedback.

DesignOps is a general approach, intended to help with a broad array of questions from usability testing issues, documentation archiving, production-time stress, and general confusion on your team:

What are the general strategies for managing the UX design process?
How do you incorporate feedback without huge cost?
What happened to that usability test result from last year?
How much space goes between form elements?
Why does the design cycle make me want to drink bleach?
WTF why does our website look like THIS?

    <title>Why Medium Notes Are Different and How to Use Them Well — About Medium — Medium</title>
    <dc:date>2013-04-26T16:48:00+00:00</dc:date>
    <link>https://medium.com/about/5972c72b18f2</link>
    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["On Medium, we don’t have comments on posts; instead we have “notes.” They hang off to the side of paragraphs and are shown when you click/touch the little indicator on the side.

Arguably, traditional comments—the kind you see beneath most blog posts and pretty much every other media artifact on the web—do the same thing (in ideal circumstances). Notes are much better for the type of ideas and stories people share on Medium. Here’s why (and how they work):

The most obvious thing that’s different about Medium Notes is that they live on the paragraph level rather than below an entire post. Not only that—notes can (optionally) highlight specific text within the paragraph:

This has many advantages. For one, notes are great for feedback. It’s the central mechanism for Medium’s collaboration feature—which lets authors get feedback before they post. Being able to quickly highlight some text and say “typo” is so easy, people are willing to do it frequently. (Personally, I find it fun.)

By making notes private by default, we remove much of the incentive to spam or troll. If you’re not adding value, you’re not seen.

A third option under the private/public note control for authors is to “Dismiss” the note. This is useful for cleaning up your own view.

The note-leaver won’t know you’ve dismissed it from your view and will still see it until they delete it.

I like to leave notes on my own posts. It’s a nice way to add contextual information that doesn’t need to be in the main flow of text."]]></description>

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[QUESTION (in part):

"I’m just a working-class guy trying to take part in the conversation that all the smart people are having. This brings me to my question: What books should I read? There are so many books out there worth reading, that I literally don’t know where to start."

ANSWER (in parts):

"We’re not on a ladder here. We’re on a web. Right now you’re experiencing a desire to become more aware of and sensitive to its other strands. That feeling you’re having is culture. Whatever feeds that, go with it. And never forget that well-educated people pretend to know on average at least two-thirds more books than they’ve actually read."

"Come up with a system of note-taking that you can use in your reading. It’s okay if it evolves. You can write in the margins, or keep a reading notebook (my preference) where you transcribe passages you like, with your own observations, and mark down the names of other, unfamiliar writers, books you’ve seen mentioned (Guy D. alone will give you a notebook full of these). Follow those notes to decide your next reading. That’s how you’ll create your own interior library. Now do that for the rest of your life and die knowing you’re still massively ignorant. (I wouldn’t trade it!)"

"Ignore all of this and read the next cool-looking book you see lying around. It’s not the where-you-start so much as the that-you-don’t-stop."

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["In the early stages of design, rather than evaluate or validate specific user requirements or priorities, we are interested in exploring possibilities. As the opening quote suggests, we seek to engage with the various stakeholders the design project may eventually effect and gain an understanding of the unique design situation from their perspective. In Zimmerman et al.’s  (2004) framework for discovering and extracting knowledge during the design process, this is known as the Discovery phase of design. In this article we introduce Mobile Diaries as a field work method that can be utilised in the early stages of design to immerse into people’s everyday life.

This exploratory approach to self-reporting allows participants  to create and share a rich picture of their world, be they grandmothers, bankers, students, young parents or employees. In this article we describe Mobile Diaries, and provide examples of the kinds experiences they can enable."

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Notes surround us. Whether in the form of lab notebooks, fieldnotes, sketchbooks, class notes, or surreptitious shorthand notes on plays and sermons, notetaking forms the basis of every scholarly discipline as well as of most literate people’s daily lives. Millennia after a potsherd from second-century Egypt, notes remain the lowest common denominator of information management. Like written responses to reading, manuscript records of speech cut across different cultures, different fields, and even different phases of life: students take notes on their professors’ lectures, which in turn form the product of professors’ notes on books. And from Aristotle's philosophy to the works of 20th- century thinkers like Saussure and Wittgenstein, many of the foundational texts of Western culture have been transmitted or even generated by notes. Yet the definition of notes remains contentious: should we be speaking of “annotation” or “notetaking”? The former emphasizes something done to a text…"]]></description>

What good are notebooks 
If they won't help me survive?

But a curiosity of my type remains after all the most agreeable of all vices --- sorry, I meant to say: the love of truth has its reward in heaven and even on earth." ---Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil, 45

'They're, well, notebooks --- things I find amusing, outrageous, strange or otherwise noteworthy; notes towards works-in-glacial-progress; hemi-demi-semi-rants; things I want to learn more about; lists of references; quotations from the Talking Heads where appropriate. If you can help with any of these, I'd be grateful; if you can tell me of anything I can profitably prune, I'd be even more grateful.

There is a list of frequently asked questions (FAQ), along with answers, and a colophon, which explains more than anyone would want to know about how these pages are put together. If your question isn't answered in either place, feel free to write, though, sadly, I can't promise a timely reply.']]></description>

I now keep it as a Google document so I can update it from wherever I happen to be. There's no organizing principle to it, no taxonomy--just a chronological list of semi-random ideas that I've managed to capture before I forgot them. I call it the spark file.…

…the spark file itself is not all that unusual: that's why Moleskins or Evernote are so useful to so many people. But the key habit that I've tried to cultivate is this: every three or four months, I go back and re-read the entire spark file. And it's not an inconsequential document: it's almost fifty pages of hunches at this point, the length of several book chapters. But what happens when I re-read the document that I end up seeing new connections that hadn't occurred to me the first (or fifth) time around … it feels a bit like you are brainstorming with past versions of yourself. … The key is to capture as many hunches as possible, and to spend as little time as possible organizing or filtering or prioritizing them. (Keeping a single, chronological file is central to the process, because it forces you to scroll through the whole list each time you want to add something new.)"]]></description>

Attempts to understand the language we use, the logic we trace, and the images we generate to understand life today.

"we are really interested in exploring artistic research. Artists, like scientists, are pioneers when it comes to creating new forms of connectivity between worlds that seem to have nothing in common with each other. They embark on the endless study of everything that contributes to different formulations of what we call reality. Taking artistic research seriously means accepting disorganisation within the relationship between disciplines that deal with contemporary art. The rise of cultural studies, critical theory, and the many variations of post-Marxist understanding of the relationship between art and economics is the fruit of…"]]></description>

With contributions by authors from a range of disciplines, such as art, science, philosophy and psychology, anthropology, economic- and political theory, language- and literature studies, as well as poetry, 100 Notes – 100 Thoughts constitutes a space of dOCUMENTA (13) to explore how thinking emerges and lies at the heart of re-imagining the world. In its cumulative nature, this publication project is a continuous articulation of the emphasis of dOCUMENTA (13) on the propositional, underlining the flexible mental moves to generate space for the possible. Thoughts, unlike statements, are always variations: this is the spirit in which these notebooks are proposed."

Everything in my experience confirms that I am here. I stretch almost compulsively, feeling out my body’s physicality…

Somehow I have landed in a nunnery. Dedicated to the advancement of science & art. There should just be a fucking school, where people go to learn multiplication in the reproductive sense.

We are the scum of earth. The thought leaders. There is some debauchery, but in comparison this is a place of rigor. Home of chaste workers.

What’s disturbing is that the educated go out & control world. I met a consultant who has broken trust down to a science, which she sells to corporations. Trust, she says, is good for business. & what about business? What’s that good for? I asked her. She smiled smart-but-dead-like & said, you have to believe that growing the economy is good for the world. Consulting is a desired job—maybe the quintessential job—of the educated class."

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Blair talks about an interesting concept: florilegium.

 “… which, rather than summarizing, selected the best passages or “flowers” from authoritative sources.”

Tweets can be thought of as forced florilegium – the constraint of 140 characters forces us to distill the important or best information (our own or from others) and share it. the idea that each tweet is a specially picked flower puts the onus on the author of the tweet to be trusted to have picked the ‘best flower’ to share. this also points to the role of curator that individuals often play – we choose what to tweet based on how we would like ourselves and the communities we are affiliated with to be represented."

…Twitter allows for varied forms of note-taking, some covered by Blair, but also beyond those examples partly because of the affordances of the new tools. a type of collaborative note-taking manifests in the ‘chat’ communities on Twitter during their scheduled meetings…"

While…the off-the-cuff, throwaway nature of Twitter or Instagram may be a big part of their appeal to otherwise reluctant amateur journalists…it’s a pretty poor journal that can’t be easily recalled later.

I’ve struggled a bit with this (I still dearly wish I could access my earliest tweets to put together my own tweet book), but I’ve recently found comfort in my friend Kellan’s notion of “long form tweeting.” Increasingly, I’ve come to think of Twitter & Instagram as notebooks where I develop & discuss ideas that I later elaborate on on my personal blog (I like to think of it a bit like F Scott Fitzgerald’s notebooks full of fragmentary ideas…). ”Real time” services are great for journalistic impetus and visceral feedback, but I’ve come go think of Tumblr as my final draft."]]></description>

    <dc:creator>robertogreco</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Even if we can capture intention and overcome sharing, we might come back to consider what was formerly known as the commonplace book. How might new book designers — of any format — replicate its sense of wholeness and real-time cataloging online? Do we need to?

It’s critical that the new book designer consider how and where these marks might be shared. I’m not suggesting that all annotations be social lest we become self-conscious in our book-relationships. One of the principal pleasures of taking notes is the intimacy with a passage, the outright honesty with which one might scribble, “Gasp!” or “Hogwash,” or “True that,” for later reminding. But there will need to be equal consideration given to what to keep personal as to what to make shareable.

After all, some sentiments are best left between you and your margins."]]></description>

She uses DEVONthink, a program with which I’m admittedly not completely familiar. I’ve played a lot with Evernote, and whilst it kinda did what I wanted it to, there was always something vaguely uncomfortable about the mass of different types  of information in there. Notes, screengrabs, clipped web pages, links, photos. It was all in once place, but it all seemed a bit disorganised, which was the opposite of what I wanted.

Instead, I try and use one piece of software for each task.1 I stick my bookmarks in Delicious, my lists and notes as plain text in Simplenote (by way of Notational Velocity), my photos in iPhoto and occasionally Flickr, &c. In short, one thing well."

[Something similar to this works for me too, though I'm not really sure whether it's because that's best for me or if it's because I've invested so much time in specialized buckets. And the "Only Collect" article is a gem — glad to see it pop up again.]

It tracks what you type and draw while recording audio, so you'll never worry about missing an important detail.

While playing back your recording, just tap a word; SoundPaper will jump right to that point in the audio.

If you need to use another document or app, SoundPaper will automatically pause the recording. When you come back, just tap the "Record" button. SoundPaper will continue from where you left off.

Use SoundPaper's powerful drawing tool for quick sketches. It's easy to edit them, too. Tap a drawing to select it, or tap twice to select an individual stroke. From there, you can drag it to wherever you want, or tap "Delete" to get rid of it. Use two fingers to zoom and scroll."]]></description>
