If you are in or around Bern (CH), and like coding, this might be for you. Coding is a situated practice, meaning it can only become better if done together. ~routine is an intention and a wish to code regularly, with others, calmly, critically, cutesy, in whatever form. The format takes […]

@yaxu I read almost all of the backstory blogpost and was somewhat weirded out by the storytelling, but guessed it might be a language issue (English structured through another language). What made me worried was actually the website. I swear I recognize a vibe coded website when I see one!

Rare photo of myself, in between high racks stacked to the brink with old media and computing hardware. I seem very happy about the manifested media history, and its messiness.

The screen are probably as old as the 1960s up until the 1990s.

The sky during the blue hour. Some scattered and fragmented clouds are colored from the last rays of a sun already set. Feels calm, feels summery.

A toad, sitting still in the dry gras. Portrait photo, very close. The toad sits patient, waiting for us to be finished with this spectacle.

A tent, dimmly illuminated from the inside, during dark night. The far back has some equally dimmly lit clouds scattering the sky. An outline of leaves and branches frames the top of the photo.

Dry gras in front bordered off by an old, old, old stonewall, made of simply piling stones that were laying around. Large patches of moss cover the wall. In the distance pine trees and open sky. Summer.
