We're seeing lots of headlines about the catastrophic impact of massive data center expansion. But what else could data centers look like?

In my perpetual quest to seek out alternative technofutures, I want to highlight the really cool work of Keolu Fox.

It's a full house in Atelier 4.500 where dozens of people have gathered for a panel on measurement, labor, statistics & AI.

Our first presenter is @nicole-lee-sch.bsky.social, whose talk focuses on Francis Galton's Anthropometric Laboratory, which she recreated in a #DisHist class.

if you were to teach a class on the pre/history of AI in terms of key concepts ideas, what would they be? the mind/body problem? abstraction vs materialism? history of the database? automation?

Bad Keyboards Thread:

So I like to make intentionally bad keyboards, in part because of my unfulfilled blood feud with mechanical keyboard enthusiasts, but mainly because I like being a chaos gremlin.

Most recently, the Juggling Keyboard:

Behold my latest keyboard, the JuggleKeyboard!

Just click the letters as they're juggled, it's an easy* way to type.

A whole issue of Dilettante Army on ekphrasis — from the method's origins; to image description / alt text + accessibility, to AI-based pattern recognition; to practices of describing films and maps and photobooks; to extremists' paranoid forensic *over*-analysis of memes + videos

Here is our article for aarhus2025.org on Infrastructuring for Aesthetics of Access wherein we reflect on the potential of designing accessibility not as a technical obligation, but as a situated, co-creative process. Based on work at kisd.de with un-label.eu dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/...

New paper w/ @spold.bsky.social. We introduce new methods to critique linguistic interfaces of AI chatbots, theorize one of ChatGPT's central engagement mechanics as the "praise/prompt envelope," and preview artworks that attune users to see its aesthetics of engagement dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/...

So, one week later, I hear that today is indeed the final day of NOAA 15 (from a Facebook group, admittedly, but the timings make sense - today was meant to be the day for NOAA 19).

One last APT recording, then - 19-8-2025 9.52.56.

I have packed the antenna away.
