  1. #videogames Dopo #Automata e #Pragmata, uscirà a giugno per lo studio Shinki il tanto atteso simulatore #reallife #Prostata! Le scelte condizioneranno il gioco. Impersonerete una ghiandola artificiale trapiantata in un umano la quale, attraverso il proprio buon funzionamento (o meno), acquisisce via via consapevolezza di sé stessa sino a divenire una volontà indipendente ed autonoma, che pensa ed agisce indipendentemente dal cervello. O finirà miseramente raggrinzita nel proprio essere mediocre.

  2. Here's Oliver Pretti's #automata site. Looks like everything's sold out for now; he makes 10 or 20 at a time and sells them - one was 4K pounds, but that was a one-off, not one of 20, which I assume would be cheaper. He has the sold-out listings to peruse, and videos of some of them too.

  7. Speaking of the #Hermitage, the Peacock Clock is one of the most extraordinary surviving 18th‑century #automata. Created in the late 1770s by James Cox, it was bought by Prince Grigory Potemkin for Catherine the Great, shipped to Russia in pieces, and reassembled there.

  13. Cactus Language • Overview 1.1
    inquiryintoinquiry.com/2025/03

    ❝Thus, what looks to us like a sphere of scientific knowledge more accurately should be represented as the inside of a highly irregular and spiky object, like a pincushion or porcupine, with very sharp extensions in certain directions, and virtually no knowledge in immediately adjacent areas. If our intellectual gaze could shift slightly, it would alter each quill’s direction, and suddenly our entire reality would change.❞

    — Herbert J. Bernstein • “Idols of Modern Science”

    The following report describes a calculus for representing propositions as sentences, that is, as syntactically defined sequences of signs, and for working with those sentences in light of their semantically defined contents as logical propositions. In their computational representation the expressions of the calculus parse into a class of graph‑theoretic data structures whose underlying graphs are called “painted cacti”.

    Painted cacti are a specialization of what graph‑theorists refer to as “cacti”, which are in turn a generalization of what they call “trees”. The data structures corresponding to painted cacti have especially nice properties, not only useful in computational terms but interesting from a theoretical standpoint. The remainder of the present Overview is devoted to motivating the development of the indicated family of formal languages, going under the generic name of Cactus Language.

  18. Koi carp automata step 2

    Today I woke up earlier to lay the first layer of paper on the fish.

    These are thin layers of newspaper glued with wheat paste.

    Hopefully? It’ll be dry enough by tomorrow so I can start to refine the shape with some kind of dough (I’be not decided which dough yet).

    See you on step 3

  23. I’m starting a project that will takes weeks.

    I want to make a Koi carp automata.

    Probably, making the fish is the easiest part.

    Let me start with a #sketchnote to put all of the ducks in a row.

    Step 1, done!
