Weird site.

>> No.17204684

>>17204660
How do I navigate this exactly? What is the site for? Weird indeed, friendo.

>> No.17204712

>>17204684
There's a "Read Me" but it didn't help much. Maybe too much to navigate. The source is huge.

there's chatlog under bkmrx button on the right that might have something interesting. this looks fun.

It reads like a pseud rationalist got addicted to Adderall lol. Anything potentially interesting is going to be buried under layers of hypertext navigation and overly verbose nonsense.

It's someone's personal blogwiki.
Most of the weirdness is affected. It's an attempt to embody a certain "philosopheur" aesthetic. Or alternatively, someone's private language. But given that this is posted online for everyone to see, probably the former.

it looks like the author speaks directly from the site sometimes too

I hate when people try to do this larpy “schizo” philosophical aesthetic. It’s not impressive.

“OOOH I CAN STRING TECHNICAL TERMS AND JARGON! I’M GOING INSANEEEE AHHHH”

It’s not that jargon or technical terms are a problem but you can just tell they’re stringing them specifically because they like the schizo-techno-Phile aesthetic

Is it really pushing art forward when nick land’s been doing it for longer than many posters here have been alive?

>>17205572

But it’s not even particularly unique or fun, how many lain-esque sites like this exist and how many word string schizophrenia posters have you seen online? Maybe I’ve just been more exposed to it but it just seems like such a larp. If they were doing it in a genuinely artistic way I guess I would find it better, but it just feels so visibly like an act. I don’t fall for the illusion.

>> No.17205601

>>17205583
the funny thing is you are obsessed with the attitude you critisize. It's not "genuinely artistic" to you because it tries to be genuinely artistic to you. You are essentially wanting them to try harder

>> No.17205611

>>17205601

Yes, I want them to genuinely put in effort to make the artifice beautiful and decadent while keeping it convincing and elegantly smooth. That’s the juggling point that I personally like.

I like the design, but could use less brainlet level big name philosopher namedroping, a bit too much unnuanced ethos for my liking (not against ethos, but do it a little better)

Very sweet words written about his family. If he's being honest he's a more decent man than most of this board, that's for sure. He actually seems to hold principles and wants to move forward and do something positive instead of being a debased contrarian. I also expected more schizo-styled text after reading this thread but it's not so bad.

It's not root access. The site is built on Tiddlywinks which is 100% open source and saved to a single index.html. You can save your own copy of the entire site, while any changes made to the online version aren't saved server-side. Refresh the page and your own entries disappear.
