Oh man! So I have a fractal half-baked project made up of smaller half-baked projects that all fit together to make a plan to save the world! Help people understand computers from the gates up using simple computer system based on LoF notation and Oberon RISC and ATMega328P microcontrollers (of Arduino fame; because I have a handful laying around) New computer architecture based on latching sort-nets. (This isn't written up online anywhere.) Programing system inspired by M. Hamilton's Higher Order Software et. al., implemented with Joy lang. Self-replicating swarm robots to collect and reprocess oceanic waste into more swarm robots and eventually large floating/flying structures. Combine Christopher Alexander's Pattern Language with Permaculture ecology-mimetic design patterns to design and build large "art" installations: essentially v

ast gardens that people can live in. (on land, at sea, and in the air. And maybe one day on other worlds, eh?) Join my mailing list. https://lists.sr.ht/~sforman/heliotrope.pajamas I need an audience and feedback, I need to know people give a fig and want this. I tend to loaf around because to me it seems like folks obviously don't want the world saved, we're having a good time playing with our phones and shouting a lot. Who am I to disturb that? http://phoenixbureau.github.io/PigeonComputer/ https://github.com/PhoenixBureau/PigeonComputer https://pythonoberon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ https://joypy.osdn.io/ https://git.sr.ht/~sforman/Thun http://phoenixbureau.github.io/ReGPGP/ Misc crazy notes with broken links, yay! https://cloudflare-ipfs.com/ipfs/QmXTnUTHEtJ8ZBAdEVP8VkNhzEv...
