sabotage is a strike against/ on infrastructure(s)

opening things up (devices but also websites/ inspector... tells time, relations embeddedness in...) --> while disassembling phone
(later) we do open up books all the time, no?
a 'vein' in mining
text as (user) interface
digital paratexts (? permatext ?)
  • "spine" (book), "anatomy"
  • background reading (what can be mentioned in a reference list but does is not necessarily quoted in the main text)



reading is writing is reading



break, breach, disrupt
image terminal window grid (columns) vs telex string here

a terminal window width defined by amounts of characters fitting in one line next to a telex strip of 5bit encoding


If Everything is a file, is everything text?

everything is a file, nothing is safe


an act of sabotage: unplug everything

research history of text and reading/ writing interfaces in the light of how it relates to ... technology ...sabotage/ underground (culture, movement, queering, failing) ... matrix of domination --> see telex-terminal img (as starting point)

an Api is a backdoor

a note on the form

what am I doing (so far)

what
  • decentering 'main' subject / confusing centers of attention
  • with digging out traces of making (of its 'technique' or 'technology')
  • if we think of things happening on different layers, I confuse their arrangement, make permeable / visible
  • generally this is a working on matters of visibility, hierarchy, authority in knowledge production and use
why
  • countering opacity (hidden, veiled, opaque, impenetrable states) of todays digital, networked technology (software/ tools, interfaces, web)
    • hidden are more diverse histories, political implications of artifacts, construct of individual author-, and ownership
