kurt vonnegut was right but i believe he was wrong about computer people we can make the computer make us feel this way, help us meet people, see people exploring, connecting, creating, etc. everything on the computer is life from someone else

my government stream debut! (computing shrines coming to a park near you in the fall!)

Screenshot of a San Francisco Arts Commission Visual Arts Committee meeting video page. At the top, Spencer Chang stands at a microphone in a hearing room with rows of red chairs behind him. A video caption reads “Golden Gate Park Temporary Installation by Spencer Chang,” dated 6/23/26. Below the video, the page title says “RESCHEDULED Arts Commission Visual Arts Committee,” with navigation buttons for Index, Share, Download, and Embed. The agenda list shows item 9 highlighted: “Golden Gate Park Temporary Installation by Spencer Chang.”
