+simulation, chapter 1, contingencies
+
+chapter 1 is not a written as a text, but as a simulation.
+coding contingencies is a dwarf-fortress-ish take on how different characters got to code.
+so instead of writing my bio that begins like "ah, i always approached things from the other side, probably because for us* this everything is new" and then continue on how i got into coding from the arts (not a real developer!), and into codings as a job (not a real artist!), and bla bla.
+
+but here we are doing a simulation, a software fortress, also known as computer. 
+(context: dwarf fortress is a roguelike game that lets you explore incredibly detailed and rich simulations) (there are funny videos about it, the most famous is a bug report about dead cats in a tavern because of simulated alcohol on their paws that they were ingesting while cleaning themselves)
+
+so back again
+chapter 1 is not written as a text, but as a simulation.
+
+
+software contingencies
+the simulation
+
+first we need things to simulate:
+
+- actors
+- programming languages
+- use cases
+
+the simplest simulation
+
+aha how do we define actors? 
+
+it reminds me of this OOO statement:
+objects sink into themselves
+
+that is an effective and graphical way to describe technical reference pages, or auto generated API specs, with nested nested nested layers of list.
+
+to avoid that
+let's define actors not for what they are but for what they do
+(that is fun bc then i wrote grandma, that means functional grandma, that means not someone that has grandchildren but someone that does grandparent functions ??? ok this is not fun anymore and i am sorry)
+
+- actors
+	- web designer
+	- interaction designer
+	- graphic designer
+	- musician
+	- teacher
+	- student
+	- grandma
+
+- programming languages
+	- javascript
+	- python
+	- vvvv
+	- pure data
+	- haskelz
+	- rust
+
+- use cases
+	- research
+	- work
+	- art
+	- fun
+	- activism
+
+then we need to combine thigs from the three categories
+
+00	web designer, rust, activism
+01	teacher, haskel, work
+02	grandma, rust, fun
+03	interaction designer, vvvv, art
+04	musician, pure data, work
+05	musician, python, research
+06	student, python, art
+07	student, javascript, work
+08	student, javascript, fun
+09	graphic designer, haskel, research
+
+side note
+NOT is the series on theory in italian by NERO
+their first pubblication was Capitalist Realism, Mark Fisher and it was a declaration of intents. 
+at some point every first is a declaration of intents.
+but is that so also in random generated series?
