I am unstoppable. Ableton Live 12 running on Arch Linux CachyOS, with full plugin support and perfomance-grade audio latency. Good bye Bitwig

Ableton Live 12 Suite open on a Linux desktop (CachyOS/GNOME), with the application launcher overlay open in the foreground. The launcher shows "All Apps" with a grid of installed applications including 1Password, Ableton Live 12 Suite, Alacritty, Audacity, Blender, Bitwig Studio, and several CachyOS tools. Behind it, Ableton's browser panel on the left has the "Sounds" library expanded with various preset files listed. The main session area is empty with "Drop Files and Devices Here" displayed. The right side shows mixer tracks labeled A Reverb, B Delay, and Main. The window title reads "Untitled - Ableton Live 12 Suite."

From there it traces the cost of Barlow's Independence of Cyberspace myth against the realities of mask-off authoritarianism channeled through digital archives, social spaces, and infrastructure collapse.

You can remove your association from a starter pack by blocking the author, but this only hides the association in the interface. If you unblock for any reason, you will be back on that list. (left blocked, right: unblocked)

When you add someone to a #starterpack or #list, Bluesky will not notify them. Once a user somehow figures out they've been added to either, they CANNOT REMOVE THEMSELVES. Their only option is to report. Incredible. List #abuse was a mainstream topic SIX YEARS AGO: www.cnbc.com/2019/06/07/h...

A small intro! I'm Cade (aka Shibco), I run a small research group from Berlin called newdesigncongress.org. We do a weird mix of digital security/threat modeling, and research ecologies, subculture resilience, digital identity, and data/interface politics. I'm also quietly designing a video game.

The image features a vibrant, dreamy aesthetic with neon-style typography. The text “THE PARA-REAL” appears in bold pink and blue hues, overlaying a scenic dusk or twilight background with utility poles and wires. Below, additional text reads: "TOGETHER IN THE WIRES: PARA-REAL MEMORY IN ELECTRIC WORLDS," accompanied by Korean text that translates similarly. A reflective, traffic mirror for seeing around sharp corners is central to the composition.

The image features a surreal arrangement of abstract sculptures, each draped with a distorted, semi-transparent sheet printed with human faces. The glossy surfaces of the sheets reflect soft lighting, adding a dreamlike quality. The objects rest on pastel bases against a light blue background, creating a clean, minimalist aesthetic. The juxtaposition of human imagery and abstract forms evokes themes of identity, perception, and digital manipulation.

The image appears as a textured, distorted render of the burning of the Library of Alexandria rendered in soft hues of grey and purple. It evokes a fragmented cityscape or a distorted topographical map, with vertical streaks resembling extrusions or data visualizations. The abstract aesthetic suggests themes of digital decay, memory, and the interplay between virtual and physical realities. The overall effect is otherworldly and immersive, blending structure and chaos.

Cade and artist Benjamin Busch speaking at
New Practice in Art and Technology's Loops panel discussion. The event is hosted in Berlin and shows a modern, open indoor setting. Several participants sit in a semi-circle, some with laptops and notepads, Cade, center, gestures with a microphone with Benjamin behind him. A large screen in the background displays a still from Serial Experiments Lain, and features a girl (Lain) with a pensive expression, connected to a futuristic environment.

Cool to see just how trivial it is to fake a bluesky identity, very cool to see the unquestioned embrace of this completely unqualified platform by people who ought to know better.
