No coincidence that I share Wendit Tnce Inf days after this note about machine reading.

Every painstakingly hand-crafted element of this physical book demands to be read. But reading remains elusive.

To human or machine, this book remains a perfect thing stuck forever in the middle distance.

I have two books, but instead of promoting them, I will promote someone else's.

Alison Parish's "Wendit Tnce Inf", a book of poems that can never be read—in two ways:
1. The letters are almost but not quite real.
2. The book (56 copies printed) is sold out.

Registration is free, and low-cost university housing available.

I'm excited by the theme, encouraging philosophical reflection. Organizers ask not just how sources influence network thinking, but how network thinking influences how we see sources. It'll be a fun conversation.
