Congratulations to the Hungarian democrats. This is a very good day after a period of repression, ignorance and right-wing populism. May the cultural life revive and prosper again. I'm emotional. Congratulations again.
Inke Arns, Franciska Zolyom, Tina Bara und ich sprechen über die Ausstellung "Robotron. Intelligenz und Arbeiterklasse" die derzeit im HMKV Dortmund läuft.
Also Antye Guenther is performing tomorrow at HMKV, absolutely worth to check out! https://hmkv.de/veranstaltungen/veranstaltungen-details/performance-antye-guenther-operation-zwiebelmuster.html
As parts of my research on Robotron I wrote a text (in German) titled "Socialist Co-Innovation. How the relational database DABA-1600 was developed in the GDR"
Open Access: https://zfmedienwissenschaft.de/heft/text/sozialistische-co-innovation
It discusses the relational database DABA-1600, which was jointly developed by VEB Robotron and the TU Dresden in the 1980s.
Through this analysis, the paper discusses how the databases of the socialist GDR came to bear strong similarities to those of the capitalist West.
I produced another track of the month, this time a #dub and #breakbeat hybrid. https://soundcloud.com/francis-repertoire/trick-kick
My text just published: Commercial-off-the-shelf. The Re-aestheticization of Operational Drone Videos During Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine on Social Media.

@vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @drahardja@sfba.social @randahl@mastodon.social YouTube autotranslate is so annoying, there is even a plugin to prevent it, see: https://youtube-no-translation.vercel.app/ But the mis-representation problem as described by OP remains.
Looking for FLINTA person to give a one-time workshop 3hr in game engine (Unity or similar) in Munich. Suggestions, nominations? DMs open. 🙏

adding @monad to the conversation, and myself. If such a thing emerges I would be interested. obviously I'm already here, but how can I bring the art academy and our students who are glued to insta here?
