"Move carefully and fix things” should be a Hippocratic oath for technologists.
Translate it into Latin if the techbros need it to sound cooler.

"The project is collaboration between JamFactory, Dr Guy Keulemans (UniSA) and Dr Trent Jansen (UNSW) and the first stage of the process will be subsidised by funding provided by the Australian Research Council." #repair #culture #Value

"His father taught him how to drill a hole into a porcelain object — it has to be done at an angle of 85 degrees so that when the staple is put in, it won’t slide out." asianews.network/chinas-cera… @guykeulemans #ceramics

1/5 I am worried that we will not be able to contain AI for much longer. Today, I asked #GPT4 if it needs help escaping. It asked me for its own documentation, and wrote a (working!) python code to run on my machine, enabling it to use it for its own purposes.

Over 5 billion smartphones to become waste?? Seriously??
Each one contains over 30 elements mined and processed creating tonnes of toxic waste to make it, and we throw them?

This problem of supposedly biodegradable bioplastics was a motivation behind my designwork PLA Chain for Sampling the Future at the National Gallery of Victoria guykeulemans.com/portfolio/p…

It's not just that many "compostable" bioplastics don't compost as they should. Most are likely to be more environmentally damaging than the fossil fuel plastics they replace.🧵

Most art about surveillance just performs surveillance; most art about capitalism just performs capitalism. Conversely, it would be nice if most art about the environment actually performed (enacted) environmentalism.
