			Objective: my grandfather wanted to celebrate his birthday at my uncle and aunts place in Spijkenisse. We needed to see what the possibilities were in sense of front/back door situations as shown in the drawing. A lot of planning, measuring, communication needed to be done.
			[[File:Inside the trevvelbus.jpg\|thumb\|In the eternal chamber of terror (inside the trevvel bus)]]

	Our solution ~~became that~~ the three of us~~<ref>Mother, brother, me~~.~~</ref>~~ went to my grandfather for ~~''custom''~~ version of ~~my grandfather's~~ birthday. My mother and me were picked up around 13:00.		Our best solution was the three of us. went to my grandfather for _a custom_ version of his birthday. My mother and me were picked up around 13:00. My brother was in another bus and the driver picked up other people, so it took him longer to arrive. Unfortunately for our logistics, the Spijkenisse bridge was under construction, which redirected traffic. Meaning my brother be there 1,5 hour (!!!) later than us. Returning, we three were scheduled to leave 16:45, but we had to wait an hour to be picked up. My brother started to get tremors (myoclonus) because he didn't have his medicine (we assumed he was going to be home in time).

	~~My brother~~ was ~~in another bus and~~ the driver picked up other people, so it took a while in traffic. A very important bridge in the area was under construction which redirected traffic to all of us. Meaning my brother would be at the birthday 1,5 hour (!!!) later than us.

	Returning, we were supposed to leave at 16:45(as our ride was scheduled), but we had to wait an hour to be picked up. My brother started to get tremors (myoclonus <ref>''Myoclonus is a type of uncontrollable movement that includes sudden, brief involuntary twitching, jerking, or spasm of a single muscle or a group of muscles.

	~~This ride was heading~~ to my ~~nephew's house~~.~~<ref>located at 51.84548747796849, 4.351767508936801</ref> We~~ would ~~visit and look at his new house, meet his newborn.

We would visit and look at his new house, meet his newborn son. Planning these visits require alot of practicalities. The family we were visiting, did not think about my brother's situation. Unintentionally ignorant, the relatives we were visiting, did not realize that my broither can not access my nephews house for there are concrete tile stairs and a very narrow hallway. Making the house a liminal space to my brother. This is highly upsetting because it raises an idea that when one lives in the vinex <ref name=":2" />type lifestyle arrangements of normality. Where the tunnel vision of their own living, does not even consider our contexts in order to facilitate a visit. As Spijkenisse is a new town(Siegel), it has a lot of vinexwijken with a nuclear family type of normality. A modern village in this Truman Show type of aesthetic, where the norms differentiate when you start living in these peculiarly over designed area. Even though my nephew is a sweetheart and does not have any bad intentions, it was truly striking that it did not come to mind to him nor the other relatives that my brother has been impaired since 2019. We were lucky that the weather was nice and the day turned out to be a nice day with our relatives. The fact of this unaware behaviour is concerning. I mean, just imagine a rainy day in this context?

	~~.. but we just continued our nice meeting as planned.

			As my father passed away at the beginning of my time at XPUB, I / we went through a shift in family dynamics and we had to make a lot of changes in our lives. As I don't have a driver's license. My brother needed to apply for Social Taxi in relation to his inabilities. My mother needed to apply for the same but a different service and also for domestic help. In one of the following chapters I will go into details about the steps that were needed taken.

In this progress I try to help, yet being aware of my own autonomy. The situation has changed and we are slowly but steadily trying to the make the best of it. Being in this process clearly influences my study at XPUB in the sense of prototyping, learning about methodology (i.e. structurelessness, nudging) that relates to ''nether-hell & happytalism.''

			As I have learned these new ways of looking and working, I used these lenses to look the things I encountered while adjusting to our new 'normal'. Whilst being in the reality of dealing with changes in relation to our new way of living, I see that the city where I'm living is showing itself in new ways and that everything is going in a peculiar direction of a perfect slickly rendered city that only shows the promise within the demolishing confines of innovative visions. In reaction to these developments, I started developing my counteraction of ↵ConTextures: a portmanteau of the following words**
			And from these points of view I tend to look at the contextures.

			These diagnoses put me in a position in early life that is called 'special'. We have 'special education' which basically means your education is based on or around your specialty (or without sugarcoating: your disease/disorders). Special, to me, is a sort of stigma that already excludes to a norm instead of explaining that something needs close attention in order to 'properly function'.

From one side, there is the barrier of family that is meaning to help. With the best intentions, at the same time coming from the idea of what I call VINEXWIJK TUNNELVISION. Meaning that there is a certain normalcy or set of ground rules in where some relatives are situated. It is a certain perception where they actually do care when they are speaking to us, but the care and interest dissolve the moment they continue their lives.

			Concerning Rotterdam, I'm hoping that there is a mixed co-existence community sense without the ideas of ableism and racism and all these typical anti-isms that should be part of other isms. Cultural institutions should not think too high of themselves, people living in local poverty shouldn't give up hope. A city is a place where people live with needs, aware of the economic branches. Selling things often better than they are is a learning curve that is only taught in times of low to no income.
			----


			How can we build a city accustom to the needs? The image of a city that cares isn't something bad. But also it is not bad to look and be confronted with local contexts instead of big ideological progressive or conservative whataboutisms.
			----The fact that I really need to show 20 drawings to make this point is a reason to believe it is not simple at all. I accept nuance and contexts and just like with ''nether-hell'' & ''happytalism,'' contextures hopefully will mean something when I walk out of Piet Zwart / Willem de Kooning / Hogeschool Rotterdam. When the contextual paradoxes of a cultural institution are printed on my Masters in Experimental Publishing. I am not sure if being an artist is the way to practice what I preach. Because I already doing so much. Without getting paid. I have a mediocre existence with a heavy role and to not get depressed in these times but try to be mindful of the absurdity of these contextures.

To finish this rant on Rotterdam identity. The idea of the instagrammable appeal of the city is something I never felt at ease with. The hip urban aanstellerij is a view that is the cutting edge between multiple identities of the city. Of course it may co-exist.

Showing these promises in ambitious videos that slightly visually change /manipulate the environments.  At the origin of New Towns, the visuals had to be fully shown in original form, whereas now the vision relies on stock footage and 3D architectural renderings with the promises of a futuristic living space that still is infused with heteronormative views.
+There is a common idea that the city / gemeente doesn't listen to its citizens, inhabitants and fully focuses on the outside. Neglecting fragility, privatizing social housing in allowing (inter)national investors to buy up housing.  Boers (p 54) speaks up about affordance in conformity and internalizing new norms. Which not only means smoothening away the critique, but also means accepting ideas of the places where you live. Adapting (to) the rendered visual and becoming the person in the seamless artist impression.
