Can trust be produced in a sociological system?

– define a meaningful experience
– why? a concept for money
– truth and the war on attention
– gender binaries and quantum computing
– protection spells
– immaterial cultural space is a thing?
– localism in a city of transplants

By experimenting with the use of networks and alternatives to capitalism for means of exchange, trust and meaningful exchange can develop resilient communities.

– social experiment
– personal experiments

What are the benchmarks for measuring these experiments?

– text, images
– user feedback
– written responses
– audio interview?

my displacement from Detroit is largely 4

no      comfort in my coffee to stir

the champagne of light roast

stimulating social unthirst.

our lawful planet,      becoming drier

than a scandinavian breakfast.

the carafe glitters.  uncaffeinated

cups of economy crumbs

is what killed the dinosaurs

on the social         ladder to

the next Pangea with an espresso.

very funny — institutions are in the truth biz.

‘carry your narrative and it can stymie you’
‘narrative?’

but what are we in for … the transliterative tease can fold an institution or stratified power over language, a program of a social body. is it the writers job or the artists’ job to construct or deconstruct those formations? observation leads to what … the psychology of the mass moves, it transforms through time.

the internet » collective conscious

but what are we here to do … we are fragmenting and proliferating the networksof knowledge and expression. what is self in the simulation? coffee, sometimes alcohol, to wonder … and to try and forget. watching the clouds pan over the trees. what am i hoping to get from the collective conscious, from this sewing circle? what would there be to ‘get’ if that was the point? thoughts, feelings, personality, awareness — very funny
