Went to the Dunne & Raby talk "Not Here, Not Now" at the Viaduktraum, ZHdK last night. D&R made the case for design learning from quantum physics, literature, and speculative philosophy, treating design as a form of inquiry. Concepts like Meinong's Jungle and an Archive of Impossible Objects. Great to see them both after so long. Many thanks to Lukas Franciszkiewicz for organising!

For this week's Creative Code challenge by @sableraph : “Patterns”, SymbolicResidueRelic brings back the 360 glitch perspective that was a recurring pattern in my WCCC Submissions as well as symbolic patterns coded with #Python, #HydraVideoSynth & #SonicPi Code.

#Poem

What Occurs in your Mind
when you read these lines
Do words and feelings emerge?
Do thoughts and reason merge?
Unearth what has been submerged?
Patterns of the Past
Patterns of the Present
Presently presenting numerous contents
Currently being cast

Welk speculatief orgaan zou jij willen dat in de toekomst gecreëerd wordt?Wat is dan handig of nodig?
