Re: [NetBehaviour] Learn To Code
I don't know Rob, I could afford maintaining my wife and childrens life by working as a 'code monkey'. As an outcome of the crisis in the 80ties, the Dutch government issued a program to train jobless academics (including me) by cooperating with the demands of the cooperative forces and a huge number of former philosophers, historicians, musiciens and other 'trained and skilled' people found jobs in the IT industry in late 90ties, early 2000nds When the financial crisis hits really hard the industry reacted by disposing these group first, aged between 45 and 60, what effective way is there left to (re)gain a living apart from being a 'outsider', guised under the name of activist/artist/pauper or being dependent on welfare as earning money (to pay for the financial demands modern life imposes on every single individual) by practising cultural/software/ creative activities not as part of the cultural/software/creative industry is by far too less to survive decently. It is one thing to discuss things from a comfortable position, backed by whatever institutions who pay the expenses and the rent, but a complete different thing when that is not the case, when there is nothing to hold on What remains then is something else, not expressable in 'jargon' or 'code', and I wonder where exactly the divide between 'leisure/fun' and 'work/labour' lies if not in the differences between having a job - whether as a 'code monkey' or as 'paid' artist or as a 'cultural/ creative/sex worker - and not having a job, or should I go into the streets and fellate white collar workers to maintain my family?

This is important for thinking critically and realistically about software. The second is so that they can use code as a tool to achieve their own ends using software, less constrained by the fixed affordances of applications and web sites. Data visualisation, digital humanities techniques and web scripting are all useful ways of doing things with software. What are the benefits from it when being outsourced and jobless? Software should not be an economic end in itself. It is a tool for achieving other ends. This is its benefit to artists and activists and academics, not that they might be able to make a living by writing code for multinationals.

hi Rob thanks for these excellent series best wishes for '2012' (TM) Andreas Sent from my eXtended BodY On 31 dec. 2011, at 14:06, Rob Myers r...@robmyers.org wrote: Blog post with picture, links and better formatting: http://robmyers.org/2011/12/31/psychogeodata-33/ The examples of Psychogeodata given so far have used properties of the geodata graph and of street names to guide generation of Dérive. There are many more ways that Psychogeodata can be processed, some as simple as those already discussed, some much more complex. General Strategies There are some general strategies that most of the following techniques can be used as part of. Joining the two highest or lowest examples of a particular measure. Joining the longest run of the highest or lowest examples of a particular measure. Joining a series of destination waypoints chosen using a particular measure. The paths constructed using these strategies can also be forced to be non-intersecting, and/or the waypoints re-ordered to find the shortest journey between them. Mathematics Other mathematical properties of graphs can produce interesting walks. The length of edges or ways can be used to find sequences of long or short distances. Machine learning techniques, such as clustering, can arrange nodes spatially or semantically. Simple left/right choices and fixed or varying degrees can create zig-zag or spiral paths for set distances or until the path self-intersects. Map Properties Find long or short street names or street names with the most or fewest words or syllables and find runs of them or use them as waypoints. Find all the street names on a particular theme (colours, saints' names, trees) and use them as waypoints to be joined in a walk. Streets that are particularly straight or crooked can be joined to create rough or smooth paths to follow. If height information can be added to the geodata graph, node elevation can be used as a property for routing. Join high and low points, flow downhill like water, or find the longest runs of valleys or ridges. Information about Named entities extracted from street, location and district names from services such as DBPedia or Freebase and used to connect them. Dates, historical locations, historical facts, biographical or scientific information and other properties are available from such services in a machine-readable form. Routing between peaks and troughs in sociological information such as population, demographics, crime occurrence, ploitical affiliation, property prices can produce a journey through the social landscape. Locations of Interest Points of interest in OpenStreetMap's data are represented by nodes tagged as historic, amenity, leisure, etc. . It is trivial to find these nodes to use as destinations for walks across the geodata graph. They can then be grouped and used as waypoints in a route that will visit every coffee shop in a town, or one of each kind of amenity in alphabetical order, in an open or closed path for example. Making a journey joining each location with a central base will produce a star shape. Places of worship (or former Woolworth stores can be used to find https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ley_line using linear regression or the techniques discussed below in Geometry and Computer Graphics. Semantics The words of poems or song lyrics (less stopwords), matched either directly or through hypernyms using Wordnet, can be searched for in street and location names to use as waypoints in a path. Likewise named entities extracted from stories, news items and historical accounts. More abstract narratives can be constructed using concepts from The Hero's Journey. Nodes found using any other technique can be grouped or sequenced semantically as waypoints using Wordnet hypernym matching. Isomorphism Renamed Tube maps, and journeys through one city navigated using a map of another, are examples of using isomorphism in Psychogeography. Entire city graphs are very unlikely to be isomorphic, and the routes between famous locations will contain only a few streets anyway, so sub-graphs are both easier and more useful for matching. Better geographic correlations between locations can be made by scoring possible matches using the lengths of ways and the angles of junctions. Match accuracy can be varied by changing the tolerances used when scoring. Simple isomorphism checking can be performed using The NetworkX library's functions . Projecting points from a subgraph onto a target graph then brute-force searching for matches by varying the matrix used in the projection and scoring each attempt based on how closely the points match . Or Isomorphisms can be bred using genetic algorithms, using degree of isomorphism as the fitness function and proposed subgraphs as the population.

What should object oriented philosophy be about in an age where the paradigmatic divide between object and subject is a long past station? To me it appears to be a rather 'subjective' way to connect a 'popular' issue i.e. programming practices with a vague notion of 'philosophy' and should not be taken too seriously Same goes for OOP as the 'only just' way to formalize current programming techniques as it is just a way among others to 'look' at a certain field of theoretical approaches to practical problems i.e. optimizing code, for we have had before 'lineair coding', heuristic coding(spaghetti) and other 'schools' of best practise During my training as software engineer early 90ties different -commercialized and evangelized -methods were accentuated (RUP, Agile a.o.) wheras during my mathematics and informatics studies - late 70ties, beginning 80ties - more accent was given to 'result driven' approaches such as assembler/compiler techniques Comparing these two, give rise to suspect that whatever is 'a la mode' gets the most attention and followers, complete with a course/certification industry to serve the corporate trendy attitude I never figured out althought on what premisses these paradigma shift were grounded apart for the gain in 'time to market' and not in anyway based on scientifically based decisions BTW have a look at my 'new' FB bashing program (written in js and php): http://apps.facebook.com/whathef-/ (FB login required) and have a look at the simple straightforward code, with a nice example of using recursion in js - function vote(obj){ ... setTimeout(vote(obj), 200), raises/lowers the percentages automatically ... } whereas with the following simple php code snippet the program is able to track the ip nr's and eventually corresponding domains from every visitor/user: fwrite($file,$REMOTE_ADDR) Currently I am working to gather all the public available information about users/visitors to be logged using the 'Open Graph API' from FB, which by the way is heavily structured around a object oriented coding 'view' In the making: a same kind of simple program to mess with the Dow Jones/Euronext indices, just for the fun of subverting extremely influential figures Andreas Maria Jacobs w: http://www.nictoglobe.com w: http://burgerwaanzin.nl On Dec 30, 2011, at 19:23, Pall Thayer pallt...@gmail.com wrote: There is no question in my mind that object oriented philosophy is borne from and related to notions of object oriented programming.

Re: [NetBehaviour] fb bashing app [was: Object-Oriented-Questions]
Hi Pall, James, Yann ( et al) I just read some definitions of de-obfuscating code, and suddenly recognised that I am a very naive coder! -;) But nevertheless still enjoying doing it, maybe because all that cryptic secret stuff is something not directly connected to coding 'an sich' but has more to do with protecting source/code in an environment where maliciousness is an apparently dominant practice The 'evil doers' - spam, cialis, viagra etc - you pointed to in your link are more or less negative creatives, whereas I and - I think - a lot of others are just 'creatives'. Then I wonder if a felt - or lived - 'naivity' will not - in the long term - survive as a 'positive' force contrary to the 'negative' forces of the 'spam' politics of 'the war on terror', built on a 'negative' and de/fensive philosophy, resulting in ... well obfuscating even our 'lived' environment, examplified by borders, fences, certificates, examination and more 'artificial' coded social and relational 'programs' To critisize these phenomena one needs to able to both code and de/code these constructs and therefore step outside that same positive 'naivity'. So to recap the comparision between OOPh and OOP can give insights in terrains not being connected at first sight, but when put in a broader context have more in common than we maybe want them to have, the 'contemporary' is yet so obfuscated that is a necessity to de/obfuscate it in a way directly connected to our societal 'existence' , which makes it a 'philosophical' issue par excellence!

hi Marc and list UK had its BBC Micro, while at the same time in continental Europe, Commodore introduced the famous VIC20, the *Volkscomputer* with about the same specs apart from its slower microprocessor, both equiped with the famous 6502 the acronym i.e. ARM is somewhat misleading as it suggest an A(dvanced) R(educed instruction set) M(icroprocessor) which was certaintly not the case with the 6502, which had a huge set of ASM 6502 machine instructions as was the first commercially succesfull Apple IIe I wonder how first generation programmers (like I did with the VIC 20) used the Acorn in The UK to create, well pieces of the practice formerly called art? I remember there was and there still is a lively demoscene using asm 6502 or derivates as language of choice Would be nice to somehow showcase these early examples at -for instance- Furtherfield? And to juxtapoint contentinental versus UK approaches and trying to point to a certain distinction between the two, as for instance: subject matter, technical point of view, art historical context, the role of BBC compared to educational programs from ZDF, NOS nl (which happened to broadcast 6502 code hidden in television transmission signal in the 1980ties), the role of influential technical publishers like Data Becker, Germany and finally the impact of the commercial take-over around 1989 by AOL et al US which gave rise to the mainstream popularity of Home Computers (PC's) Just wondering Best Andreas Sent from my eXtended BodY On 2 dec. 2011, at 11:55, marc garrett marc.garr...@furtherfield.org wrote: The BBC Microcomputer and me, 30 years down the line.

No fee (unless, sorry, you are doing this for award - and that, friends, is Willetts’ fault – though the Labour Party have a share of the blame too). This course involves a close reading of Karl Marx’s Capital (Volume One). The connections between cultural studies and critiques of capitalism are considered in an interdisciplinary context (cinema studies, anthropology, musicology, international relations, and philosophy) which reaches from Marx through to Film Studies, from ethnographic approaches to Heidegger, from anarchism and surrealism to German critical theory and poststructuralism/post-colonialism/post-early-for-christmas. Topics covered include: alienation, commodification, production, technology, education, subsumption, anti-imperialism, anti-war movement and complicity. Using a series of illustrative films (documentary and fiction) and key theoretical texts (read alongside the text of Capital), we examine contemporary capitalism as it shifts, changes, lurches through its very late 20th and early 21st century manifestations – we will look at how cultural studies copes with (or does not cope with) class struggle, anti-colonialism, new subjectivities, cultural politics, media, virtual and corporate worlds. http://www.gold.ac.uk/media/CU71012A%20Cultural%20Studies%20%20Capitalism%202011-12.pdf ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

They predate the release of the BBC and Commodore 64 by a couple of years. However, the machine used (a homebuilt S-100 based system with Z80 CPU) was a similar specification. These are stills from realtime animations, initially written in hexadecimal, then machine code and latterly C. I have QT versions and should upload them sometime. They are very crude but have a certain charm indicative of their time and my naivety. http://www.littlepig.org.uk/videos/pieces79/pieces79.htm http://www.littlepig.org.uk/videos/pieces81/pieces81.htm http://www.littlepig.org.uk/videos/pieces82/pieces82.htm Anyway, although I wasn't a BBC user I would see myself as belonging to that generation of practitioners who began engaging computers at the end of the 1970's and which would include the Altair, BBC, Commodore and other early PC users. Thus, the 30 year anniversary for the BBC Micro has some resonance for me. best Simon On 2 Dec 2011, at 11:38, IR3ABF wrote: hi Marc and list UK had its BBC Micro, while at the same time in continental Europe, Commodore introduced the famous VIC20, the *Volkscomputer* with about the same specs apart from its slower microprocessor, both equiped with the famous 6502 the acronym i.e. ARM is somewhat misleading as it suggest an A(dvanced) R(educed instruction set) M(icroprocessor) which was certaintly not the case with the 6502, which had a huge set of ASM 6502 machine instructions as was the first commercially succesfull Apple IIe I wonder how first generation programmers (like I did with the VIC 20) used the Acorn in The UK to create, well pieces of the practice formerly called art?

Re: [NetBehaviour] How art killed our cult your
Seeing the destructiveness of pop-art and the hegemony of consumer led *dirty three letter word* markets makes me sick, and yes prefering to exile, to leave behind this worldy breakers of truth should we take note of Kittler's words and accept that there *is* no *meaning* left? 50 years of post war development led to one conclusion: society as a bounding construct to maintain and safeguard human relational existing *in* society has failed. What are the next steps to take not to fall in a sustained and prolonged digestion of defunct post-post-post paradigma's? Like stubornly holding to a democratic solution, when even the simplest demands will meet the huge barriers of corporate capital. When life is measured according to but only one rule: its profitibility. When sadness becomes a last resort, when inactivity leads to silent dead and silent erasures. Homeless, needless, wordless, meaningless. When positions are already taken before birth, when accounting is more valued than health, when the EMF is *legally* excluded from every eventual financial and societal responsibility What is to be done?

[NetBehaviour] Fwd: [New post] A Few Notes on the Eviction
Sent from my eXtended BodY Begin forwarded message: From: chtodelat news donotre...@wordpress.com Date: 15 november 2011 21:25:34 GMT+01:00 To: a.andr...@nictoglobe.com Subject: [New post] A Few Notes on the Eviction New post on chtodelat news A Few Notes on the Eviction by hecksinductionhour Derrick O'Keefe An open letter to 1 per cent: you cannot evict an idea whose time has come To the 1 per cent (you know who you are), I write to you, as a lowly ninety-nine percenter, to offer both my congratulations and my condolences. First, my congratulations on sending in the NYPD to clear out Zuccotti Park in the wee hours of the morning today. Congratulations for demonstrating, with this cynically timed manoeuvre, that when push comes to shove the police exist to serve and protect your vested interests. Congratulations on teaching a new generation this painful but necessary lesson about the true function of the police in a capitalist society. You deserve thanks for proving that when consent falters you'll resort to force to maintain your hegemony -- liberal democracy, when it is by and for the 1 per cent, must have its limits. Congratulations are also in order for the seamless way you have deployed your media and your legal system against the Occupy encampments around North America. From Oakland up to Vancouver, all the way over to Halifax and many places in between, injunctions and smear campaigns have paved the way for evictions. Congrats all around on the super job you've done reminding us of the ultimate purpose of our society's superstructure. I also write, however, to offer my condolences. Because, for you, the sad truth is that you can evict an encampment, but you cannot evict ideas whose time has come. As it was with Cairo's Tahrir Square, I know that we, the 99 per cent, will be back in New York's Liberty (Zuccotti) Park. And even if that takes some time, I'm still sorry for you and your tiny minority, because you cannot evict these ideas: they are simply too important, too long overdue, and too big to fail. You cannot evict the idea -- at long last expressed in no uncertain terms -- that you, the 1 per cent super-rich, have been getting away with crimes against the people for far too long. You cannot evict the idea that the rich and the powerful are responsible for the social and economic crisis we face. You cannot evict the idea that money must cease to dominate and corrupt politics. You cannot evict the idea that everybody, all 100 per cent of us, deserves a home, a permanent, safe and comfortable roof over their heads; this is an idea that you cannot evict no matter in how many places you try to evict the homeless who have joined our encampments. You cannot evict from sight and from mind the social problems that your 1 per cent centric system has created and perpetuated. You cannot evict the idea that the environmental crisis is driven by the insatiable and irrational system of capital accumulation that you sit atop. You cannot evict the idea that the war machine is paid for with the blood and treasure of the 99 per cent, and yet serves only your 1 per cent interests. You cannot evict the bonds of international solidarity that have already been forged, with actions like the Egyptians' sharing lessons of struggle in New York or the Boston Occupation of the Israeli consulate in solidarity with the Freedom Waves flotilla to Gaza. You cannot evict this rebellion because it has become global, beginning in Tunisia and spreading from there and picking up People Power and indignation along the way. You cannot evict the joy we have all felt in joining a movement that has finally spoken to class injustice, and to the exclusion of the 99 per cent from power at all levels. You can clear out a park in the middle of the night, but you cannot evict Occupy Wall Street, and you cannot evict this political moment and these movements that have emerged. My condolences, again, to you the 1 per cent. Now that we've finally got these ideas in our hearts and in our minds, you can never again evict the 99 per cent from political life and from the struggle to create a better society and a better world. _ _ Glenn Greenwald A police raid suffused with symbolism November 15, 2011 Salon.Com Following similar raids in St. Louis and Oakland, hordes of NYPD officers this morning forcibly cleared Zuccotti Park in Manhattan of all protesters; New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg took “credit” for this decision. That led to this description of today’s events from an Occupy Wall Street media spokesman, as reported by Salon‘s Justin Elliott: A military style raid on peaceful protesters camped out in the shadow of Wall Street, ordered by a cold ruthless billionaire who bought his way into the mayor’s office. If you think about it, that
