Quotes

"Dialogue is mutual search for a new reality, not debate to win with stronger arguments. In a dialogue propositions are pointers toward a common new reality; not against each other to win a verbal battle, but complementing each other in an effort to accommodate legitimate goals of all parties, inspired by theories and values, and constructive-creative-concrete enough to become a causa finalis". Galtuung


"I use the concept of affect as away of talking about a margin of manouverability, the 'where we might be able to go' and 'what we might be able to do' in every present situation. I guess 'affect' is a word I use for 'hope': Massumi


"A discourse is a system of words, actions, rules, beliefs, and institutions that share common values. Particular discourses sustain particular worldviews. We might even think of a discourse as a worldview in action. Discourses tend to be invisible--taken for granted as part of the fabric of reality."Fairclough


Emergence is “the principle that entities exhibit properties which are meaningful only when attributed to the whole, not to its parts.” Checkland


"What the designer cares about is whether the user perceives that some action is possible (or in the case of perceived non-affordances, not possible)." Norman

N-N -N- NerdCore Random Character Project Z736HB8 -

I decide due to certain coincidences  to create my own optimum random Nerdcore Rap character:

For a start I need a name and and album...

I use a link from "The Bridge" 's  Generators section


re
 Facebook – the Make Your Own Album Cover game. Although the rules of the game have appeared on blogs and messageboards all over the web, the inventor remains unidentified, so anyone who reckons they can lay claim to it, big yourselves up here!
The game has five simple steps:
Get a band name!
Simply use the title of a randomly-generated Wikipedia article.
Get an album title! 
Use the last four or five words from the last quote on a page of random quotations.

Get some album art!
Use the image thrown up using this Flickr tool, which generates random images licensed under Creative Commons licences - you need to read the terms.

Make it look nice!
Using Photoshop, Paint, or whatever graphics software you have, fiddle your band logo and album title into some kind of visually-pleasing assemblage.
Post it 

I do my best to focus on my optimum space and hope for the best...

I get 
"Anthony Manetta" - perfect nerd name although I my add Manotta!
thats Anthoney Manetta Manotta   mmmmmm
for my album name
 I get

"Nothing more than slavery" - surely the perfect brand!

and I get for my picture  (a somewhat tiny) picture of " a lady serving cup Cakes" 

I click it to get a bigger picture and it sissolves but i remember a   documentary of the intellectual variety discussing an advert for  Cakes!!!!!
I search...
its here in (the best documentary ever)

Check out - "My Cake is Ready"



great it says something !!! but...



this says "something else"?!

(see Barthes!)



Next: add "Your Cake is Ready"

and make the Music...


I change the album name to "Engineering Consent"

from the random "Nothing but Slavery" to reflect the "evolution" of our "society"?



 Track :"Your Cake is Ready"
