Big data; mind processing
With all the new technologies—starting from electricity to advanced encoding techniques—we now have access to vast amounts of information. However, this information does not yet constitute knowledge (which is tested experience that can be repeated and valued for human or natural growth) nor feeling (a pathway to knowledge and meaningful experience, such as through art). To achieve these, all…

Generated content / A Reflection on Quality in design / Perspectives
Overflow of ai generated junk everywhere today reminding me of what happened with typefaces when computers first arrived. You might remember that unprepared Arial and Comic Sans everywhere. But still, good quality typography is always in demand. It’s just not so crowded. Those who value quality keep going for it, while those content with cheap…

Culture, information, entertainment, style
Don’t underestimate highest importance of culture and entertainment, as it is said – “bread and circuses”, 50/50, but actually it’s about 30/70 bread/circuses. Not for nothing even monkeys have a lot of leisure – in the world and in nature in general it is not common to work yourself to zero, leisure is immanent and…

Outer and inner
It is very important in this world to be able to draw a clear line between one’s inner self and the outer world. Do not allow the random external and every passing to insult the inner integrity and peace. The outer world – it’s just the outer world… every experience in its essence is somehow…

Information wars
Information wars… not as obvious as it seems, but dumb and stupid things work better for crowds, normals, underclasses; the paradox is that the bad (lying, aggressive, unfree) side often wins such stages – it is easier for them to lie, manipulate, twist, shuffle, shift information…. at a short distance it gives advantage, of course,…

Drowning…
Avoid drowning in the daily stream of social networks and news. Today’s mass media and most journanists or celebrities’ approach of kill-but-get-profit-or-promotion is a headache.A once a week or so run through the main signal sources is enough. Analyze seriousl, fearlessly, openly. Less is better. Real information, no buzz. Know what is signal and what…

Information tends to spread freely
Information tends to spread freely like steam or gas in space, so trying to limit it (like selling air) has no perspective and generally useless. Jobs like scientists, artists, journalists, etc, better to be openly funded by society rather than hardly pushing them for getting income like we see in this weak and fragile model…

Is randomness the same as unpredictability?
Is randomness the same as unpredictability? No, randomness is an inherent mechanism of redistribution within the essence of the universe, while unpredictability is our natural ability to perceive it. Unpredictability may not even be related to randomness if the experiencing subject possesses the necessary information.

Subjects and essense of cultural code
At the root, at the core, each person is unique. On top, however, it is superficially covered with a cultural code… like a set of clothes, a garment, it reflects many of the movements and character of the individual, the garment is most often what is given, but sometimes it is what the individual chooses.…

Oversaturation
A new phenomenon of the “post-Internet” era – hypertrophied mass consciousness, mass psychosis, deliberately fueled hysteria

Complicated questions
Open Source in Capitalism? Free information is a big virtue and a mega important factor for our progress, obviously. But how to make a living out of it?.. Fuck today’s money system, those greedy, mad, overgrown corporations… kill them with fire. Money is nothing but a temporary, archaic concept for energy distribution. Open is better,…
