Hmm, an #intro. I'm a farmer at birdsongorchards.com. We grow 200 varieties of fruit and we have a you-pick rose field. Come on by if you find yourself in the Monterey Bay area!

I also #design #software, most recently for sage.com.

I'm a longtime member of the lines/monome #music community and I'm a huge fan of the Disquiet Junto weekly provocations (though the results of any inspiration I might find are often kept private).

Trying to get better at #painting. Trying to get better at #drawing. Trying to get better at making the computer do these things too, sometimes with the help of some machine learning.

I'm trying to get better at being comfortable with ambiguity. Many things are neither good, bad, nor neutral. Stuff can be complex and multifaceted, containing multitudes.

Birdsong Orchards

Flowers, heirloom and rare fruits: apples, pears, peaches, plums, figs, persimmons, citrus, cherries, walnuts, sapote, feijoa.

#introduction #reintroduction

Hi all, Roel he/him.

An artist and designer with an interest in computer networks, materiality of the internet, digital community infrastructure, DIY/DIWO approaches, FOSS culture.

You might know my work from the LowTech Mag's solar powered server project solar.lowtechmagazine.com

Currently pursuing a #PhD in Interaction and Participatory #Design at Malmö University. As part of that research I work together with actors in the cultural sector to co-design alternative social media infrastructures with/for them. These are mostly based on fediverse applications, so I am also interested in aspects of #federation #governance #contentmoderation and more generally how to transition to and improve alternatives together etc. This space is far from perfect and in some cases insufficient but we need to start somewhere??

I'm a founding member of varia.zone, and also part of lurk.org. With LURK we've been running a fediverse instance called post.lurk.org since 2018, for which I am happy to be one of the co-admins! As part of that I boost #introductions, calls and questions..

This is introduction is really long because post.lurk.org has a character limit of 1337

LOW←TECH MAGAZINE

Low-tech Magazine refuses to assume that every problem has a high-tech solution. A simple, sensible, but nevertheless controversial message; high-tech has become the idol of our society.
