OK! so here's a demo of what's going to be drawing this braid I've been talking about, on the "now" slice of a broadcast story, carving a narrative path through semantic space. Explanation threaded...
#polislike #delibwave #democracy
Sharing for posterity: the amplified narrative strand of the broadcast mode is just the most powerful, but it's also the most dead and static. It's like a slow-moving simple particle in the center, exerting huge force on silent witnesses.

NEW FAST ALGORITHMS for UMAP/PaCMAP! I'm so excited to somehow buy a new macbook and get this working realtime, as I chip away at nodescription.substack.com/p… #delibwave #collectiveintelligence
Pure MLX of UMAP, t-SNE, PaCMAP, TriMap, DREAMS, and CNE for Apple Silicon. Beyond the algorithms, I also built a circle-splatting renderer in MLX - scatter-add alpha blending on Metal, piped to H264 hardware encoding. So 70K points, 784 dimensions, from raw data to rendered video < 5s on M3 Ultra.

As I'm working on #collectiveintelligence and deliberative tooling, I'm coming to realize: we need less consensus-building, ut rather difference-stabilising. #delibwave

This could be a critical moment far beyond Colombia
If Petro means to use sortition-based citizens assemblies, it could be the start of something fascinating
If he means his supporters, it could blur the lines and bring the whole #delibwave into disrepute
