compudanzas
explorations of joyful and human-scale computing.
developing computers that are dances, rituals, games.
compudanzas is a research project exploring alternative modes of learning and creating computation.
we attempt to transition from a logic of productivity and efficiency, and circuits that destroy life, to dances, rituals, and other types of seemingly useless computers!
we move calmly, patiently, and with curiosity.
we identify with the ideas of permacomputing and computing within limits.
photo of the rite of computing: there is a wiggly row of shapes in the floor, each of them composed of small blocks of wood. a person is crouching, building one of these shapes. other two people are watching, sitting in the floor. there are some cardboard shapes with symbols, also in the floor.
