  • Hack this journal
  • July 2, 2013 • karen • submittedmakes
  • discussing in the CLMOOC how the making we are doing connects to our writing
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • “hacking” journals in different ways:
  • every day is something creative, but also a little destructive, to make the journal the person’s own.
  • . I found a journal at a bookstore called “wreck this journal”
  • getting away from the idea of a journal as a pristine collection of thoughts, by getting away from the journal as a sort of rigid cultural model of private thoughts or experiences that are locked away
  • private
  • collaborate project, and it could still stay private because we wouldn’t have to share our journal entries if we didn’t want to

    "7.  Have you ever wondered what the inside of a volcano looks like?  Deep underground is a magma chamber.  The magma chamber is under the bedrock of the earth's crust.  The conduit or pipe runs from the magma chamber to the top of the volcano.  The conduit connects the magma chamber to the surface.  Most volcanoes also have a crater at the top.  Volcanoes are quite a sight, and you can enjoy this site all over the universe.  Volcanoes are found on planets other than Earth, like the Olympus Mons on Mars.

    "Theme What exactly is this elusive thing called theme? The theme of a fable is its moral. The theme of a parable is its teaching. The theme of a piece of fiction is its view about life and how people behave. In fiction, the theme is not intended to teach or preach. In fact, it is not presented directly at all. You extract it from the characters, action, and setting that make up the story. In other words, you must figure out the theme yourself. The writer's task is to communicate on a common ground with the reader. Although the particulars of your experience may be different from the details of the story, the general underlying truths behind the story may be just the connection that both you and the writer are seeking.

  • the way that good ideas usually come into the world. They are, inevitably, constrained by the parts and skills that surround them.
  • the adjacent possible defines all those molecular reactions that were directly achievable in the primordial soup. Sunflowers and mosquitoes and brains exist outside that circle of possibility. The adjacent possible is a kind of shadow future, hovering on the edges of the present state of things, a map of all the ways in which the present can reinvent itself.
  • The strange and beautiful truth about the adjacent possible is that its boundaries grow as you explore them

  • Johannes Gutenberg, for instance, took the older technology of the screw press, designed originally for making wine, and reconfigured it with metal type to invent the printing press.
  • The premise that innovation prospers when ideas can serendipitously connect and recombine with other ideas may seem logical enough, but the strange fact is that a great deal of the past two centuries of legal and folk wisdom about innovation has pursued the exact opposite argument, building walls between ideas.
  • intellectual property, trade secrets, proprietary technology, top-secret R&D labs.
  • they reduce the overall network of minds that can potentially engage with a problem, and they reduce the unplanned collisions between ideas originating in different fields.
  • Modeled on the success of services like Twitter and Flickr, new Web startups now routinely make their software accessible to programmers who are not on their payroll, allowing these outsiders to expand on and remix the core product in surprising new ways.
  • Nike announced a new Web-based marketplace it calls the GreenXchange, where it has publicly released more than 400 of its patents that involve environmentally friendly materials or technologies. The marketplace is a kind of hybrid of commercial self-interest and civic good. This makes it possible for outside firms to improve on those innovations, creating new value that Nike might ultimately be able to put to use itself in its own products.
  • Nike is widening the network of minds who are actively thinking about how to make its ideas more useful, without adding any more employees
  • might well turn out to be advantageous to industries or markets
  • Apollo 13 mission
  • the mission control engineers realize they need to create an improvised carbon dioxide filter, or the astronauts will poison the lunar module atmosphere with their own exhalations before they return to Earth.
  • "We gotta find a way to make this fit into a hole for this," he says, and then points to the spare parts on the table, "using nothing but that."
  • the building blocks that create—and limit—the space of possibility for a specific problem
  • The trick is to get more parts on the table.
