Adding a third celestial body to a gravitational system makes things wildly chaotic and unpredictable. Hence the 'Three Body Problem'. Some beautiful examples of periodic 3-body systems:

One of the most sincere, vital, and necessary conversations we held last year was sharing a listening session with Palestinian sound artists and producers Maya Al Khaldi and Sarouna.

**Why I personally chose Mastodon over other platforms as the most sustainable alternative for the future:**

❶ It is not dependent on the whims of billionaires.
❷ It is completely open-source and free.
❸ It is ad-free and does not rely on funding through advertisements or selling user data (unlike VC-funded platforms such as BlueSky).
❹ It is truly decentralized. You can start your own Mastodon server with your own rules and determine how much—or how little—you want to depend on the rest of the network.
❺ If you want to change your Mastodon server, you can easily migrate to another one. For example, if the rules of your current server change in ways you don’t agree with (e.g., excessive censorship), you can switch without losing your connections.
❻ It is part of the #fediverse – an idea proposed by the W3C (yes, the same organization that defined foundational web protocols like HTML and CSS). In theory, users can follow each other across platforms within the fediverse, eliminating the need to be on every single one.

I understand the interface may feel a bit clunky or technical at first, but I think the benefits outweigh these minor drawbacks. All we need now is a critical mass of users to make this viable for everyone :)

A message from Ubu!

UbuWeb
Founded 1996

February 1, 2025

A year ago, we decided to shutter UbuWeb. Not really shutter it, per se, but instead to consider it complete. After nearly 30 years, it felt right. But now, with the political changes in America and elsewhere around the world, we have decided to restart our archiving and regrow Ubu. In a moment when our collective memory is being systematically eradicated, archiving reemerges as a strong form of resistance, a way of preserving crucial, subversive, and marginalized forms of expression. We encourage you to do the same. All rivers lead to the same ocean: find your form of resistance, no matter how small, and go hard. It's now or never. Together we can prevent the annihilation of the memory of the world.
