The CrossMedia Ecologist<\/a> is sparking up this week. \u00a0Their nonsense is uncategorizable. \u00a0There is no throughline, no data, no way of modelling their behaviour, no sense in what they say. \u00a0It is a jumbled up collection of thoughts and scattered memes scrambling for darwinian survival. \u00a0While they may share some goals with us, their means – if they even have means – are so disjointed that they may as well appear to be nothing at all. \u00a0They encourage play, but it is broken and unstructured. \u00a0They encourage exploration, but it is goal-less and without a framework. \u00a0They encourage experimentation, but with their noise they actively undermine our own experiments.<\/p>\n

The program that we set up and attempted to run at this late stage in the game looks certain to collapse. \u00a0The amount of noise is overwhelming. \u00a0We are unsure if the structure that we were bringing to life will survive.<\/p>\n
