- Haven't been on Bluesky for a while, so I am yet to share some highlights from previous weeks. Here's the 70-minute long interview I gave to the amazing Ian Tennant, honoured to be part of his great channel InnerSense. We touched on hype, AI, magic, capital, and more... youtu.be/UR7RU6v3nAs?...

- That was, and still is, my soundtrack for the city I visited to deliver my second ever conference presentation, revisiting 11 years later for my second ever conference co-chairing! Wish I had the same two weeks to explore as I did in 2014... @hypestudies.bsky.social youtu.be/qtdP-qAK_qs?...
- 1-hour delay expected for my flight to Barca for our @hypestudies.bsky.social conf. Perhaps too optimistically prepared, but have with me, among the usual random book selection, a colleague's paper to read, PhD student draft, two book proposals and a paper to review + handbook for module I'll tutor

- Meanwhile, it's still #BandcampFriday so you can still support artists even more directly and show how cool you are by rejecting Spotify or YouTube for your musical explorations. My greatest fear of course is about the day Bandcamp will be bought by OpenAI but I hope that day never comes.

- Hi. My Thursday reminder for y'all.
- Reposted by Dr. Vassilis Galanos, SFHEA - each one teach one[Not loaded yet]
- I just imagined Werner Herzog, Tom Waits, and Michael Gira sitting together and checking Instagram accounts
- The UK proletarian niche version of the Paris Hilton semantic web problem (search engine results biased towards the model when one is looking for Hilton hotels in Paris) should be Stafford Beer (when you don't look for the cyberneticist but for beer from Stafford town).
- We used to have revolutions per minute, now we have AI hype-disillusionment cycles every second week www.latimes.com/business/sto...
- Now time travel two years ago and tell our past selves about Midjourney's future.... www.reuters.com/business/met...
- Microsoft is obscuring a 50 year long history of lessons learned from the ELIZA effect by "inventing" the ableist term AI psychosis. Oh the philanthropy. On the ELIZA effect: ojs.weizenbaum-institut.de/index.php/wj...
- To have a hard copy of @kasparrosager.bsky.social's Doctoral Thesis is a privilege. To be acknowledged in it a blessing. To have it with a personal dedication is a rare experience that makes one reconsider the values of "to have" and "I." Here's to an eternity of Fibonacci sequenced conversations!
- It's still #BandcampFriday (another 6 hours!) if you prefer supporting artists instead of military-funding megalomaniacs for your musical journeys. Plus Bandcamp playlists can now be set to public and I will soon be posting some of my own curations.
