body of text, textual body, etc etc etc http://www.alansondheim.org/bt12.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/floorchurn2.jpg or a renaissance emblem book or standardized measurement at long last, it's moments like these when the apparatus finally falls into place that the voice can connect directly with ASCII and other low-level protocols allowing me to create simply by speaking so that the lines themselves are created in the sense of a somatic behavior in other words the body itself communicating across literally space and time through the protocols, through the networks, in order to produce something that's almost in the form of a prayer or supplication another words a kind of performativity a performative language that bypasses any necessity for programming or four other forms of articulation other than that of Standard English which already has come naturally as the first as the first programming language that has evolved within me within my body so that is a speaking animal or is it animal which is articulating through signs and gestures I'm already halfway there to the Cyborg and bedding within the ASCII text and its mechanism and its mechanism. so this is the way of the future or a model of the future in a sense how so. It's a model of the future because instead of instead of The Internet of Things One might say it's the body or somatic calls or cells of things that's what speaking is an innocence I'm languaging within an arena where I shouldn't be languaging hopefully I will be able to save or Salvage what is being referenced here but if not in any case it's an interesting and unusual experience. voice to text > cellphone interpreter > transmission > linux server in manhattan > nano > recorded ascii text each step became increasingly problematic because of protocol issues. and it was simple but difficult to set up (for me). _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@lists.netbehaviour.org https://lists.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
