The Lowdown on Hulu by Reservation Dogs creator Sterlin Harjo is amazing, widens the lens on Oklahoma storytelling while still threading that Native perspective into it. Plus we love Kyle McLaughlin, great cast

looked at some Maryanne Wolf in my writing class. thinking about literacies in an era of info-overload, always-on devices in your pocket, and AI. i am perfectly capable of turning off my phone for a day and reading a whole book in 8 hours, but if i unplug, i will die.

“Own your torment” is a pretty good selling point

What makes this torment nexus special is you can self-host your torment and own your torment identity

Looking up videos about Speculative Design on YouTube and it seems like there was a wave of interest in the subject about 7 or 8 years ago and then it kinda died down that’s interesting. Anyway I’m studying Speculative Design at UCSD starting on Monday

I’m taking a class this fall where I have to learn me some Unreal Engine and make speculative fictive interfaces for unknown futures that don’t exist, pretty fun. It’s ya boi

This is the textbook for a class I’m taking this fall. About to get into some conceptual design Futuring type stuff. One of the assigned projects is to come up with like a speciative design manifesto type thing, which I am looking forward to, though it may stretch my imaginings
