2023 維基數據雙年會

Schedule, talks and talk submissions for 2023 維基數據雙年會

Mastodon/fediverse frustration. I haven't been active here for a while.

I want to boost this post - but my server doesn't allow me to even find it? https://liker.social/@wikidatatw/110548377289182240

What can I do to circumvent this?

Do I need to switch servers (again)?

This is why I'm still mostly active on Twitter. I just want to read and boost whatever *I* want without needing to jump through so many hoops.

News: "It’s with a great sense of calm I introduce our newest team member, Jessamyn West. She’s joining us as the new Community Manager of the Flickr Commons program." We should all be so lucky to be onboarded like this.

nature observation is a bit like github. i report a bug, in this case dead blue bugs on the sandy trail and someone explains, "it's not a bug, it's intended behavior" 😁

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/161607639#activity_comment_32a087db-4698-4cbf-885d-e67fd85bb1f5

they identified my bug in a few hours and now the observation is submitted to a scientific #opendata dataset of #biodiversity at @gbif

this can be a great #hobby for someone who likes #hiking and #photography

My essay "In between performance and documentation" was published on Rhizome:
https://rhizome.org/editorial/2023/may/05/in-between-performance-and-documentation/

It's about digital art conservation where documentation resources created by digitally recording observable behavior in a structured format can be integrated with fully performing parts of an artwork.

Originally this was written for the rather cool book "Documentation as Art" edited by @aaaannet and Gabriella Giannachi, featuring authors such as @katrina, @spinster, @GIFmodel, and many more!

In between performance and documentation

Digital artworks, even if they appear technically simple, are dependent on computer systems to be performed. Documentation is supposed to be consulted when that performance is not available, in particular when conservators restore a dysfunctional artwork and need guidance on what they should be working towards. However, artworks can also be effectively preserved by becoming a technical hybrid of their original performance and documentation materials.

Mastodon now has over 10 million users! That is twice as many people as the population of Japan if only 5 million people lived in Japan. Incredible.
