Topics include: • The need for alternative visions for computing and reasons to be dissatisfied with the current state of software. • Some of the ways HCI research can assist in efforts to reorganize societal structures. • How left-leaning crypto-optimism went from being a central narrative to relatively niche over the last decade. • Integration domains and the need for more cross-pollination between disparate disciplines and communities • The potential for new TfT concepts like Spatial Canvases to push us out of our current siloed, windowed app based local maxima (Check out Orion’s talk on the topic) • Cool developments in AI enabled malleable software like Websim • The difference between ‘ephemeral’ and ‘compostable’ software Artwork: René Magritte, “La Condition Humaine”, 1935

We chat about our early lives online, our respective netart pasts and his experience starting what was initially a somewhat niche site for ex-⁠del.icio.us⁠ refugees and ⁠surf club⁠ members, that has over the past decade-plus become a veritable online institution and essential tool for research and thought, with a diehard cult following, a sustainable no-vc business model, and goals to persist into the next century.

New experiment for Frames. Mint this token, get a self-hosted image gallery served from a Vaporware ship. https://zora.co/collect/zora:0x7d6f986b5febecdd5dcdf68e13f1908e37718768?referrer=0xE0593A4adC52Ff98603c5Bd5BAA054C2ECC3BB42

One of the innovations we're using @vaporware is a new alternative to S-expressions, called Rex. I'm super excited for Lisp devs to check it out. Rex has a very simple parser and supports macro's like Lisp, but is much more readable imo. Lots of layouts too https://git.sr.ht/~plan/plunder/tree/master/item/doc/REX.md

In the coming months, we’ll be opening the network to select developers and partners. We’re experimenting like crazy with @farcaster and are excited about bringing a powerful co-processor to the ecosystem.

Each ship has a unique name registered onchain and can perform actions for its owner: building and signing transactions, storing data, serving dApps, and more. Developers can deploy an app to their own ship, register it onchain, and immediately sell to a global audience with no app store fees.

Plunder is purely functional and provides orthogonal persistence as a system feature. We call our VMs ships because they’re designed to be owned and piloted by a single user.
