+ <p>IDEAS:</p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ <p>the act of love</p>
+ <p>one must truly love computing to do good computing.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <ol start="2">
+ <li>
+ <p>computing is art</p>
+ <p>Mierle Laderman Ukeles: &quot;Everything I say is Art is Art. Everything I do is Art is Art.&quot;
+ further:
+ &quot;We have no Art, we try to do everything well. (Balinese saying).&quot;</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <ol start="3">
+ <li>
+ <p>grounded approach</p>
+ <p>computing is not an isolated act. one must keep in touch with humanities: art, history, culture, etc.
+ one
+ cannot build something good for the world, not knowing the world.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <ol start="4">
+ <li>
+ <p>the living document</p>
+ <p>times change. people change. code changes. information is living. information should be allowed to die
+ and fade away. information comes from from everyone.
+ it's a
+ developing story.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <ol start="5">
+ <li>
+ <p>camp in computing</p>
+ <p>there must be space for fun and quirkyness. for doing something that is superfluous. not everything
+ needs
+ to
+ have an end goal. the superfluous elevates the mundane and makes it joyous.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <ol start="6">
+ <li>
+ <p>actualisation of humanist values</p>
+ <p>computing is for people. people use computers. people use computers to make more art. people use
+ computers
+ to
+ talk to one another. people use computers to cope. people use computers to write. people use computers
+ to
+ write
+ software. people use computers to design hardware. computing is for people.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>BALANCES:</p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ <p>getting things done/having fun</p>
+ <p>it is important to account for the scale of time. to do things well, but to also complete. there is
+ time
+ for
+ development (actualisation), and there is time for maintenance and repair (care). it is too easy to
+ discard
+ things, to move on to the next thing, but it is also bad to be stuck on one problem.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <ol start="2">
+ <li>
+ <p>gift-giving/self-care</p>
+ <p>the only way to improve the world is by giving gifts with no strings attached. however, to be able to
+ give
+ gifts, one must take care of themselves and avoid burnout. social support and proper compensation is
+ paramount,
+ while still protecting oneself from greed.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <ol start="3">
+ <li>
+ <p>doing/doing nothing</p>
+ <p>sometimes one has to do nothing to do something. truly nothing.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <ol start="4">
+ <li>
+ <p>openness/resilience</p>
+ <p>open cultures and spaces/clubs and friend networks. the bazaar/the cathedral. in extending love to
+ others
+ outside, but still protecting and cultivating the microcultures, the small-scale social bonds.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <ol start="5">
+ <li>
+ <p>the new/the old</p>
+ <p>architectures that are old are new again. architectures which are new become old. things which have
+ stuck
+ around may have stuck around for a reason. things that are new are not automatically good. things that
+ are
+ old
+ are not automatically good. things that are new may stick around for a reason.</p>
