Free PDF 'Artists Re: Thinking Games,' published in 2010 by Furtherfield. I still get requests from students and lecturers for a copy of this book every few weeks, which speaks volumes about its lasting relevance, especially considering when it was written - www.academia.edu/751475/Artis...

Congratulations to @flashes.blue for their official launch on the App Store 🎉🎉🎉 It’s an instagram alternative built on the AT protocol 🙌 all the visual scrolling with none of the Meta algorithm

Actually, Canada would probably be better off out of this automatic intelligence-sharing arrangement, which involves mass spying on each others' citizens. As would we. Not least because its dominant member is now playing for the other side. See it as an opportunity, not a threat.

Thought : The mistake everyone made in the past was thinking that robots would be our hands, when instead we will be their hands, and they will be our minds. Certainly not our feelings though

Petition to ban X/Twitter from the UK and EU www.change.org/p/petition-t...

I have no words, apart from unbelievable

At times, having arrogant and short-sighted individuals in power has its advantages—they inevitably turn against each other. Kash has just initiated the “F** off, Elon.”*

It’ll always break my heart that we could’ve had an extraordinary President with Kamala Harris and instead we have a disgusting rapist criminal traitor.

Thank you everyone who have already signed the petition! Still waiting for the rectors of Finnish universities to take a public stand for the freedom of science.

He has absolutely no power, trying to make people believe they have no power. (Canadians started)World is paying attention. Meanwhile in UK on James O'brien,caller said youtu.be/gJiiyXfXIbA?... If serious consideration, Canada,Australia,New Zealand &Ukraine maybe join as European Partners Trading.

Europe and UK need to take on the far right in the US, starting with currency reserve… meanwhile Putin is loving sewing disunity in Europe…James O’Brian’s caller is spot on.

Frustrated by Trump’s threats, some Canadians canceling trips to the United States apnews.com/article/cana...

I’m going to Austin Texas for SXSW next month and I’m terrified that the changes to air traffic control staffing by Trump mean it’ll be a terrifying landing in and takeoff back home, based on recent crashes and CNN report on poor staffing, especially in Austin. Any local insights to allay my fears?

The number of Canadians who now see the US as an enemy is now three times the number that want to be the "51st state" Globalnews.ca globalnews.ca/news/1102682...

This is tragic, then AI overlords may not give a crap about us, our legacy, and history anyway

Thank goodness for that!

"...people are simply tuning out — trying to pretend this isn’t happening. Well, it’s a matter of time before all this comes for them: the potential recession; the impoverished dystopia; the sicker, worse America...I still believe it is possible to stop what is in motion, but the window is closing."

Destruction of critical thinking continues apace.

Disheartened to realise after writing various versions of a research bid the last 6 months, that my project to make a complex database-driven generative XR artwork, has not enough research in it for research funding as is. So I’ll have to try to get Arts Council funding again, which is much less 😢

We are witnessing the first generation of students who have full access to generative #AI and the first generation of teachers who are bombarded with offers to use AI tools. Is this leading to the creative destruction of knowledge ecologies? berlinergazette.de/generative-a...

It’s coming faster than expected…

Team Canada wins in overtime, and l’ve never been delighted with a hockey win before, ever.

Remember when team USA beat the Soviets in the 80s? Canada just had that moment and the US were the Soviets this time. Congratulations Canada 🍁

Here's one of the warnings I gave in an article before the US election. It's devastating to see it all happening. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"President Zelenskyy was legitimately elected in free, fair, and democratic elections. Ukraine is a democracy. Putin's Russia is not," Commission spokesperson Stefan de Keersmaecker told journalists on Thursday. Follow Euractiv's Ukraine liveblog for updates as they come in: eurac.tv/9X-u
