Giant skeletons at the new Day of the Dead celebration in Mexico City. A new cultural event created because they saw it in a Bond movie and thought it looked cool.

How did Leibniz think on the page? Beyond polished works, hundreds of reading notes reveal a thinker testing possibilities, correcting errors, and reacting to his peers in real time. More information about 2 forthcoming volumes of this material here: 🏛️ pfisogni.wixsite.com/rekh-ma…

I wrote about the perceived problem of AI's "epistemic opacity" and why I think a lot of explainability research is boring and/or misguided

Never mind the ethics of AI use, we need to establish the etiquette. Inviting me to read LLM-generated text without telling me that's what it is, as though you'd written it yourself, is _rude_

E-flux heideggerianism is a phrase that's gonna be stuck in my mind for ages

Replying to @adubwoods @sociohoeologist
but we read around 6-7 of his books and collectively decided that this *something* was just a sort of really beautifully-written 'e-flux heideggerianism'

i hope one day to live in a society capable of making collective, conscious decisions for certain technological pathways and against others, rather than one that confusedly insists that market-mediated pathways are both inevitable but somehow also absolutely open & indeterminate

People who find polychromy tasteless or fake yearn to visit Herculaneum and that one museum in Rome with erotic artifacts. Painted sculpture bad? How about a copper figure with 20 dicks inlaid with precious stones?

J. H. Prynne, on reading
When a reading of text has proceeded by laborious stages within the test-rig of detailed study, pause to allow the overall effect to integrate back into a coherent human reading, and ponder whether your life may even have been changed, just a little, or your beliefs about large questions; whether your habits of feeling have been flattered or boastfully challenged, or whether your relation to the text builds up a kind of trust. This aspect is what you will take away with you when all the study is finished, and it should last you through a lifetime.

After feints the heart steadies, pointwise invariant, by the drown’d light of her fire. In the set course we pass layer after layer, loving what we still know. It is an estranged passion, but true, the daughter willed back by blue eyes, unscathed, down the central pain pathway. Timelike delirium cools at this crossing, with your head in my arms. The ship steadies and the bird also; from frenzy to darker fields we go.

Feel like we need some kinda theoretical breakthrough about aesthetics because it's been a few hundred years of fine arts and yet painters et al still speak like this to each other, which makes for a hard limit on artistic projects:
