There is a pause. She ashes her cigarette. It falls on me. It seems like the birds have stopped too.

so at the end

this is possible in mazelike research sprints on the internet

as in

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

you cannot feed someone truth

but really the thing should be autonomous

you cannot feed someone language, they have to speak

propensity within someone

okay this is interesting because pedagogies we have rn are not proper models

its performative

magnetisation/form

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

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.

kind of mythopoesis

i believe search always should be immersive, because whatever is pre planned and non consuming (what you are looking for is total engulfment by the spectre of the real), a joyous intensity, a flow of virtue

i guess imagine a multimedia obsidian or notion that behaves according to some insane arcane rules that you can't ever really determine


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

plato

ahnaf is it worth reading all those books

okay im going very rogue and very inarticulate

abrar?

i really havent

think this is much more rhizomatic or immanent or mazelike than mainstream education now

or never left

no like which do people call me

like first name

barren land


wait what is that
