Re: [NetBehaviour] A Behavior of Catalogs
@BishopZ, your groupings are masterful, thank you! And @Isabel too for the pictorialization. The idea of a catalogue of social taxonomy of net behavior was not intended to categorize the participants, rather, it was an effort to identify (seriously playfully) the various types of behaviors we (and everyone else) exhibit in our networked practices, online social engagement, and the socio-political perspectives we formulate from our net experiences. Our conversation over the first week was a richly layered collection of net behaviorisms: an opportunity for reflecting on these tendencies to better talk about them, analyze them, critique them, and understand them. None of us exhibit only one type of net behavior, whether it be cynicism, or poeticism, anger, or play: in our everyday lives we are all multi-textured individuals. In the world of database technology, the word category is synonymous with taxonomy, which is simply a tool for grouping concepts hierarchically. The hierarchical approach to sorting out concepts ideas is fundamental to how we learn, analyze, and extract meaning symbolic value. So categorization is a powerful means for conceptual reasoning: in this case I excavated our own utterances to assemble a list of tendencies in order to initiate a larger, constructive dialogue concerning the main topic of this discussion: netbehavior. So please excuse if any you thought you were being pigeon holed or unduly categorized, rather, it was my intent to use our discussion as a laboratory for critique, a sampling of comments from highly accomplished individuals of the networked practice to serve as a case study for our discussion concerning the impact of the net on the way we work, play, think and engage with one another. I look forward to the continuing conversation and of course your artistic renderings.

Let’s conceptualize an approach to delivering theatrical social media. We may invent or even dream of local mythologies of networked systems in troubled areas. We find out more can be expressed in local vernacular. We find a platform for paratrooping re-interpretations of torment explained by the local's face. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
Re: [NetBehaviour] A Behavior of Catalogs
of course people are already working in troubled areas my feeling is that we're swamped; ISIS wll pay no attention to us. and as I mentioned before, recent research (AAAS Science I think a couple of weeks ago) indicated that climate change and the current drought in Syria (and elsewhere) has spurred ISIS and a number of other groups; people are starving. so we're working within something global, deadly, and violent. the only thing I do is, when I'm doing a presentation, I bring all of this in. and for those who are interested, there are the archives Sandy Baldwin and I did during our moderating empyre a few years ago, on death, pain, and suffering (forget the exact title) in the real and virtual, and more recently, that stint Johannes and I did in November on ISIS, Absolute Terror, Performance. I see this moderations as political interventions; so many people chimed in who are working in online and offline networks already, hardly alarmist (are you alarmist if you've been tortured?), there's lots of information there. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
