How does #art come into being for me? Mostly by looking. By shifting the #perspective while observing, by #connotations.
A package is supposed to go into the recycling bin. A strip of words from another one. I see them white, painted with gesso. As a basket with a handle. It should overflow with paper #butterflies. #Humans and their making of #species #waste. #Beauty. Longing. Possibilities.

No more #pejorative remarks or even #connotations from me from now

Keeping to that will be a sound base

Nothing prompted this other than a self-improvement thought

I’m finishing a PhD in #semiotics, focusing on #AI and #Society, especially the sociocultural construction of AI and #tech in general. I’m writing and talking about #robots in #scifi, #GPT-3 and its reception, the #anthropomorphism of technology, #automationbias and the #connotations and consequences of #technoscientific vocabularies.
My wider goal is to reveal the cultural repositories that novel things get meanings from, e.g. ficton, folklore, myths, animism.

In the #context of #computer #programming, #magic is an #informal #term for #abstraction; it is used to #describe #code that #handles #complex #tasks while #hiding that #complexity to #present a #simple #interface. The term is somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and often #carries #bad #connotations, #implying that the #true #behavior of the code is not #immediately #apparent. For #example, #Perl's #polymorphic #typing and #closure #mechanisms are often #called "magic".
