working on that project materialized a necessary reminder that I hope will pass to others: technological alternatives can't be downloaded and installed on your modern devices. Alternatives is a cultural practice. Its require to revisit, deconstruct and change a whole "culture of doing" that was induced by the alienating softwares we learn to live with. This is something that can't be downloaded. It requires frictions, failing, to see your limits, and the limits of your tools, to befriend their singular attitude, to rephrase the problems differently, instead of looking for more (techno)-solutions, to refuse social behaviors and production standards we take for granted.
We didn't work by downloading yet another alternatives, we worked with a toy from the 60s, an office label printer from the 90s, a deprecated plotter for lettering on the drawing electronic board from the 90s.
Alternative is a way of thinking on how to make in meaningful ways depending of your context, not a service manufactured, provided or prescribed.

I'm still remembering the Draconian rulings the courts handed down against non-commercial "file sharers" in the 00s.
So I cannot but marvel at how flexible they are towards the interests of capital.
Altman's "right to learn" argument was quickly picked up, setting a potentially major precedent.
"Authors’ complaint is no different than it would be if they complained that training schoolchildren to write well would result in an explosion of competing works,” Judge Alsup writes, adding that the Copyright Act “seeks to advance original works of authorship, not to protect authors against competition.”
