Intro to (Limited Fork) Poetry: CONCEPTUAL POAM SYSTEMS
Rather than trying to produce incoherent poems, language poetry extracts the meanings and portions of meanings that might be available in arrangements operating on other logics, often based upon the nature of experiences words have endured in use, misuse, overuse, abuse. negligence, assumption, over trust. etc.

McSweeney's Internet Tendency: It's Weird to Think That One Day I'll Photoshop You Out of These Very Vacation Photos.
But one thing I've learned through my years of dating is that just because I'll want to erase you from my memory, I don't have to erase all these great travel experiences. Will I want to forget hiking up that volcano the other day? Of course not. I'll just want to forget that you were hiking with me − and thanks to the magic of Photoshop, I can.

How to make community members stick at djst’s nest
an interesting conclusion about how to turn new and casual contributors into long-time community members: the key is to distribute ownership.
To wrap up, there were several things that motivated me to stay active in the Mozilla community: * A belief in the mission of the project — to create a web browser that supports and promotes the use of open standards * An interest in the technology — initially with the Gecko logo as my hook * The feeling of belonging in a community of people with similar interests * The desire to give something back to a project that gave (and still gives) me the best browser in the world for free * The experiences gained by managing a website — HTML, CSS, server configurations, and perhaps most importantly, the English language * The recognition and respect from Mozilla project members for my contributions * The pride of being responsible for an important piece of the project

Nava Durga Chitra Mandir
It would seem that such banal, pedestrian knowledges as the experience sof drinking tea and walking around with a group to the cinema hall is a subject unworthy of theorizing. Many would argue that the purpose of doing fieldwork is not to watch films at the Nava Durga Chitra Mandir, but to investigate the Naudruga dance troupe.But in response I would argue that to de -colonize the city, that is to demonstrate how lived tradition actually serves as a effective social formation, it is these very low-level ground experiences that need to be studied. I will refer to the situated experience of the walker as "pedestrian knowledges."

Unfinished trajectories
This book was part of our installation in Casa da Música, 2007
Unfinished Trajectories (Graphic Instalation in Casa da Música, Porto)
Reflection based on visitors’ emotions and other viewpoints, suggested by the spaces of the Casa da Música. ⁄ The objective is to list, classify, contextualise, build relations and map the respective content.
Experiences represented in various forms that in turn generate a series of unfinished “scores” based on a wide array of details.
This project aims to question standard trajectories and propose new possibilities. New forms of discovering spaces thereby emerge, organised in alphabetical order, by scale, capacity or other criteria...
This is an unfinished project, delivering improbable and sometimes absurd itineraries.

Version is a new online journal for short-form writing and media work. It presents scenes, incidents, encounters, and sensory experiences drawn from everyday life, in which concepts are not only elaborated but enacted. Version works in close-up, cultivating moods, atmospheres, and various forms of bodily apprehension and awareness. It aims for a quality of intimacy, presence, and affective charge: a material openness to unexpected forms of encounter. At the same time, it works laterally, conducting transversal operations across object-boundaries, attuned to the rhythms, flows, and layered ecologies that constitute the phenomenal world.
Indian Matchboxes : - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Matchboxes from the Subcontinent. Collected during my time working from Bangalore, these matchboxes are the tangible memories of my various travels and experiences through India. The random and disparate juxtapositions of the imagery encapsulate the mix of historic, mythological and contemporary visual culture in India.
Theocacao: Measuring the Design Process
Even though individuals in Doug's position are brought in as experts in their field, eager to share their insights, they are often hired under the incorrect assumption that a designer has amassed information in his or her career, not experiences. That assumption leads to a second flawed assumption: that all decisions will be based on hard facts.
