Question Drafts
1
- what to investigate?
- Permatext
- what to find out?
- what could permatext be in the context of permacomputing and digital text?
- possibility for permatext as a term (concept) for digital paratext
- what tickles curiosity?
- drawn to relational, situated approach to computing (from permacomputing) and see parallels to text
- I like thinking about text, intertextuality, materiality of digital text
- what to contribute to conversation?
- permacomputing approaches spreading out in local communities
- in Paris at Pre Post Print we discussed different perma - practices like permaprint
- permatext could contribute a more detail approach, looking up close at something inscribed into permacomputing but also print, make (more) bridges/ relations between
permatext as a method for understanding interrelatedness of digital text?

- what to investigate?
- act / gesture of opening (digital) technology up
- what to find out?
- what implications come with acts of 'opening things up?' (extraction, intimacy, root...)
- what do we use for opening up? (which tools)
- what tickles curiosity?
- intimacy of those moments
- seeing how something is made, process (+ materials)
- also tells about embeddedness/ relation/ evnironment of things
- what to contribute to conversation?
- open or closed are seen as binary in technology (open source, sth is readable, high level or low level language) striving for ambiguity
- can there be relations made between findings opening up of software, web and hardware?
