about

oscillistor is Jack Leightcap's (jack.leightcap.com) lab notebook and personal wiki. It's an uncommon setup, so I'll give it an intro. an awkward point between being as totally general

collect inspiration and related projects with a webring. work with the garage door up. lab reports and articles on a wiki # purpose a fulfillment of an artistic practice research as leisure activity knowledge work should accrete https://notes.andymatuschak.org/zTn3g4wTm1hbkNFUvLLjpev maybe the only commonality between subjects is that I found it interesting wiki not generating information, isn't trying to be at the forefront of any subject, maybe at an undergraduate level of authorial perspective so architects aren't going to find much use here the medium of writing on a computer # lab at the scale of a "homelab" encyclopedic taxonomy of knowledge from first principles to conclusions fragmentation and polysemy taxonomy # articles curation of concepts, things, knowledge keep a facade of objectivity you'd see on Wikipedia scope limited to the horizons of one person, output to compete with high intake of Wikipedia a hoarde of PDFs way to organize knowledge there's not a hierarchy, general categories with more specific subcategories nothing is near the fronteirs of collective understanding information not requiring constant update or maintence preference for topics movements ideas treating the subject of symbolic logic as a new branch of applied mathematics, giving it a physical and engineering content. counter to the knowledge economy rent seeking on intellectual property # McKenzie Warks's intro to Sensoria # monologue Q&A

We would be advised, therefore, above all to pay heed to the way, and not to fix our attention on isolated sentences and topics. We shall be questioning concerning technology, and in so doing we should like to prepare a free relationship to it. The relationship will be free if it opens our human existence to the essence of technology. When we can respond to this essence, we shall be able to experience the technological within its own bounds. # Logo Branding Oscillistor sponsors Unicode U+23E7: ⏧ ELECTRICAL INTERSECTION.
