when and why?

Originally uploaded by stilleben [’stelle:bƏn].


I’m working on a presentation for next Wednesday, and since I’m in Berlin for the Transmediale, I cannot go to my library and I need some statistics for the presentation. Then I saw on flickr that Roskilde Public Library have made a branch in Second Life - wonderful! So I made an account and logged on, only to be extremely disappointed. First of all nobody is there, it is now eleven o’clock – when does this branch open? Then found out that it is actually not a branch, more of a hang out!? Where you can get a free ice cream – huhm…
On their homepage they write: ” Second Life er mere end et online spil. Det er en livsstil, en mulighed for at udleve det liv, du drømmer om…” (eng: “Second life is more than an online game. It is a life style, an opportunity to live the life you are dreaming about living…” – Jesus! Try reading some of the stuff on online gaming – eg. TL Taylors new book Play Between Worlds – and it will become evident that this is not necessarily what online gaming is about – or gaming at all! The quote more or less resembles all the cyberspace thinking of the nineties and this has been modified a lot in the new millennium (speaking in hype terms here).
Well speaking of hype, perhaps this is the reason Roskilde Library is in there, so they could get a mention on the local news yesterday – which is fair enough – just a bit disappointing….
Why are you there? When are you there?

Got an Email today from Dewitt Colvin (stocknews@trade.gus.elcom.ru) [googled both and they are fake of course] with the subject: abundantly clear2, the email reads:

This piece of writing has intrigued me and I don’t know why. Perhaps because it is something that one of the five Jpodders from  Couplands new novel could have written one late night after sipping to much Martini or drinking Cowboys home made coca cola with a twist of Kam Fong’s magic powder. I do think that the last line “in between sips of Martini” intrigues me, being very fond of Martini, but probably more because of the subject that this sentence articulates: the author as someone who drinks Martini while writing code, along with the circulatory status of the sentences, that for nonprogrammers makes it resemble code. And - OK I’ll stop now before this post resembles the email.

Book meme

Wednesday, August 9th, 2006

Via John Macgregor Wise:

a) pick up a book which is the closest to you at the moment
b) open page 123
c) find the third sentence
d) post it in your Live Journal (plus the instructions)
e) don’t choose the book, just pick up the one closest to you

The one closest is my notebook and it only has 100 pages, turning around I find Adrian Mackenzie: Cutting Code - Software and Sociality, here goes:

“network configuration and management.”

A rather short line, the book is not that long too, but it is very good. N. Kathrine Hayles writes in the paratext on the backcover: “As soon as I finished this book, I turned it over and began reading it a second time; its deep clarity and compelling power demanded nothing less.”

Are you a nerd?

Tuesday, April 4th, 2006

I just found out that I am ¾ nerd - going fast towards geekdom. MSNBC has made a quiz, where you can test how geeky you are. My score was 44. The score differentiates like this:

0 to 29: Stuck in the Last Century
30 to 60: Heading to Geekdom
61 and up: Seriously Nerdy

Thinking of it, I realize that the score perhaps is a bit misguiding, because just doing the test, shows a little bit of geekdom.
