The Mediterranean Sea
Another Sunday, Another Naive Weekly — Observations From The Internet Wilderness.
Good morning,
Ana is on Mykonos, Greece. But unlike in the photo above from Naxos, Uno and I are far away. We are visiting my grandparents, Uno’s great-grandparents, in a small town on the Danish peninsula. It is a gift to witness generations interlace, just like it is to be entangled in Ana’s poetic gaze, and I am counting the days until we move to Athens and embrace The Mediterranean Sea.
With care,
Kristoffer
Roadside Flowers
Sunrise is what it says and by that it is perfection.
Foam is a mystery lurking you to visit an archive.
Making as Thinking is only for the web browser.
Hypha is a Wikipedia-like page that becomes unreadable.
Field Notes
Beyond Dystopia
The headline is the only thing bothering me about this stunning conversation between Elvia Wilk and Claire L. Evans in Pioneer Works. You’ll love it too if the following quote by Claire catches your attention: “Computers are just glorified rocks, in the end. If we can imagine that computers can be people and can be intelligent and can dialogue with us, then we can do the same with plants. It would actually require much less work, because plants are already intelligent.”
CURSOR’s Discord
It is inspiring to follow the team behind Cursor Mag: they are dedicated, curious, and kind. Their Discord is active without being overwhelming and is the size where it still feels intimate with a welcoming culture. So come say hi, I’m there.
WWWonderful Awards
In our friendly celebration of roadside flowers it is time to vote between Can I Send You an Email? and Town. Remember that the selection is intentional, the pairing is random, and the voting criteria are for you to decide.
See last week’s result and follow the celebration here. Ps. on the occasion of a tiebreak, I draw between the two sites.
