This is a list of things that could sprout slowly toward the next year. For the bachelor I struggled a lot to choose a specific topic: deciding on something is really difficult when everything is so entangled. To approach next year in a different way maybe could be helpful to keep track of some ideas and try to understand why they trigger me.
BTW at the moment it's just a list of things that come to mind while playing basketball.
- The Democratic Surround: Multimedia and American Liberalism from World War II to the Psychedelic Sixties (2013)
- From Counterculture to Cyberculture: Stewart Brand, the Whole Earth Network and the Rise of Digital Utopianism (2006)
- Radical Software
- Videobase and Jean Rouch (especially Chronique d'un été) and the video to create community are example of rituals informed by technology? ????
- The three SI as case studies. Try to formulate them in terms of critical tooling - community software - site specific software
- [Eventual Consistency](https://diversions.constantvzw.org/wiki/index.php?title=Eventual_Consistency), the case of [Y.js and Joseph Gentle](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l5XgnQ6rB4)
- "The crisis can be solved only if we learn to invert the present deep structure of tools; if we give people tools that guarantee their right to work with high, independent efficiency, thus simultaneously eliminating the need for either slaves or masters and enhancing each person’s range of freedom. _People need new tool to work with rather than tools that “work" for them._"
- Piet ? What's the difference between sharing the tools developed in the context of xpub (si16, si17, xbranch, soup aggregator, karaoke, aggregator, wiki api etc) & propose a collab tailored on the need of the piet ? (both things can cohexist)
