...But then I think, I've seen this before, too, in some or other form. This thing I'm looking at, whatever it is. And the realization is that it was never mine or theirs to begin with, but Ours. All of this is Ours.

My first thought was to write an entry about fashion. However, thoughts seem to be in a continuous flow, and I somehow ended up pondering over toilets as the "backstage" of the social world, the place that is governed by informal behavior and a space where the private body is released from all the pressure of performing for an audience....

The sticker network is a network made with wirelless stickers. Control over the internet leads to a new form of independent network: the sticker network. This is in fact an open internet wich may interconnect wirelless routers or work as standalone. All you have to do is stick arround. Glue stickers everywhere. Large quantities of stickers are...

This my first entry on SpaceCollective. This is not the first entry on SpaceCollective. This idea of a Global Brain is floating around here and there, so is this really my first post or just the first one I'm recognizing my contribution for? But as per with the idea of a global brain, consciousness, whatever, does this effectively reduce...

An array of tubes + nature = surrealism

From reddit: Gossip about celebrities exists for the same reason religion exists - because it is a very powerful meme. Humans evolved to fit about 150 people into their sphere-of-people-they-care-about (or monkeysphere if you're familiar with that article), and by gossiping about those people with others the people in a community are able to...

"Collective Intelligence (CI) is the capacity of human collectives to engage in intellectual cooperation in order to create, innovate, and invent." - Pierre Levy + James Surowiecki + Mark Tovey I wrote a post a few days ago, Is Twitter a Complex Adaptive System?, that proposed the idea that Twitter may be evolving into an entity of...

How do we identify who we are as people? Where we come from? What we mean? I've been working, for almost a year now, on how music defines people and the place that they come from. Specifically, I've been working to understand why musicians responded so strongly to Hurricane Katrina. Sooner rather than later, I'll post my findings,...

the world sometimes seems so big, and sometimes so small. how many people do we walk by, ignore, think are judging us, are even thinking about us? i don't think about most people beyond a split second. think about their shoes or their coat or their hair or their glasses. that's probably all anyone thinks about me, right? i haven't...
