somewhere between instagram and chatgpt

yeah

as in

there is a distinction between western-modern pedagogical systems that's like text-based as in a legal method but there is an idea of "pathshala" or "guru shissho"/ "porompora" i mean how masters relayed knowledge to the student by (oral) transmission often by memorising books. so what was taught was always interactive. knowledge was interactive, you spoke with people rather than read texts.

a version of this existed for a few months last year but it was static. it was HTML with writing and pictures and videos and sounds. i had this feeling that the code should be as important as the content, that structurally each piece in relation to each other piece shouldn't change, that the mazelike quality should emerge from me intricately arranging paths through it. like classic hypertext

in a way what we are really interested in with pedagogy is the magnetisation

Thank you, Jack

its good

like magnets

yeah

ahnaf is it worth reading all those books

and so on. not wanting the rhyming / clanging

i got bored though because i knew all of the different arrangements of it. i probably needed to stick at it longer to get it dense enough to feel navigable in a way that was engaging to me

way too random but already engaging. i want to explore it

i have read not even 1 book

like first name

that looks like my instagram account

theres a kind of a cowardice to generative art that i want to avoid though. i want the kind of relationship to this thing that a game designer has to a game engine

abrar?

kind of mythopoesis

we can only engage in such a way

so an active mazelike process

like people can read 100 books and still not have the fire within them

yes

is everyoneback on tumblr now

we want to live the knowledge too live the content
