Cuerpo Sin Organos

“…Se dice: Que es el CsO? -pero ya se esta en el, arrastrandose como un gusano, tanteando como un ciego o corriendo como un loco, viajero del desierto y nomada de la estepa. En el dormimos, velamos, combatimos, vencemos y somos vencidos, buscamos nuestro sitio, conocemos nuestras dichas mas inauditas y nuestras mas fabulosas caidas, penetramos y somos penetrados, amamos….Y es una experimentacion no solo radiofonica, sino biologica, politica, que provoca la censura y la represion. Corpus y Socius, politica y experimentacion, Os impediran experimentar en vuestro rincon.” (Deleuze&Guattari)

I invented the Three Laws of Robotics in 1942, and these laws, which are built into the robots of my science-fiction stories, prevent them from harming human beings, force them to follow orders, and make them protect themselves, in that order of importance.

Of course, the robots in which I imagined these laws to exist are complex fictional robots, far more advanced than anything in real life (as yet). In contrast, the robots in industrial assembly lines right now are just com- puterized arms, capable of doing simple tasks over and over.

But they are capable of doing harm, and, as the inventor of the laws, I always feel guilty.

Entonces, el 22 de marzo en londres esperamos tener la presencia en datos via OpenSoundControl(OSC) desde bogotá enviando gZea, usaremos un patch de pd (puredata) para que los “valores” que nos envien sean remezclados por otros performers en tiempo real. No solo habra input desde colombia tambien estaran llegando datos desde otros diferentes lugares, aun no esta muy definido el plan de la red pero los organizadores del parche 1010 sabran hacer buen uso de los feeds!. esperamos integrar al tema una buena cantidad de logs de wardrives en medellin. para eso abrimos este post donde intentaremos definir que tipos de datos y bajo que conceptos colaboraremos ese dia.

(update: acaban de publicar esto: plenum vale la pena leerlo para tener mejor información acerca de lo que se plantea para ese dia.)

arduino map (quiz)

I’m uploading this hires-image from the 1st arduino board I get to my hands, it came pre-built and i will like people to help me understand each of the components, there are few that are obvious but some others i just don’t have a clue, since i did’nt saw something like this in the arduino website i hope it can become a good resource for begginers. Open the image in a new tab and post in comments using the letters as a reference the point of the board to which it corresponds…a,b,c,d…etc..

TX!
