Thursday’s notes

  • maths and electricity
    • EDIT Friday: got home (Bendigo!) and my girlfriend told me about how they were doing work on the power lines near her house so she was without power for the day (truly powerless). She said she went to do so many things (eg. boil the kettle (can’t), watch Netflix (can’t), watch a DVD instead (can’t)) and it lead her down a ridiculous path of ‘oh wait’ moments. Appreciate electricity my dudes.
  • exquisite corpse? but with documentary
  • tacit knowledge: we’re all good at something, hard to verbalise. VCE: it’s not the content of the exam, it’s about the process. Know how vs know what.
  • Adrian never finishes anything – 80%. I can relate. “Excruciating” last 20%.
  • “Thoughts have to become actions in the world. Write”.
  • Black box.
  • MATERIALITY, RELATIONALITY, AGENCY – 3 main ideas we will engage with with what we make
  • Turn theories into tools. Closing the divide between theory and practice, ‘Venus and Mars’.
  • I have never written a shopping list alongside my lecture notes.
  • anthropocentrism.
  • constructivist view.
  • rabbit warren of relationality
  • Adrian hates generalisations and loves Sun Kil Moon.
  • Look at specifics.
  • Inter-species communication
  • Somethings agency is defined by its relation to other things, eg. DNA, money

key words mostly. Need to kick this laziness in the shins and get back into writing. Expanding.
