[MM]: Miscellaneous Materials Collection 032 — Hostile Architecture, Flickr Commons, Legal rights of the forests, Gravity Derived Energy, NFTs and more
Welcome to the Miscellaneous Materials Reading Club MM032 (Season 4 issue 2)
Current daily average CO2 PPM: 418.49 ppm
Okay, this is MM032. January. 2022. Woah. Seriously woah. Time is an illusion, but woah, it also just disappears — where did my January go? Certainly not into finding readings. I've been watching a lot of Winter Olympics, pondering how its sort of a way-unfair contest most of the time, and thinking how crazy it is that a tiny mountainous country of 5 million people can have won the most all time winter medals... I guess when your ancestors invent a lot of the ski-based sports you're more likely to be the champs? Yes I am talking about Norway…
MM032 seems light. There are a lot of links, but not many PDFs. That typically is my bread and butter, finding PDFs, I guess I didn't have enough interesting to look into the last few weeks? Too many protected academic journals I couldn't figure out how to log into? I have been struggling with a lot of work — well, struggling in getting any work at all done — so maybe this collection just reflects that!?
