"Glad I Didn't Have Facebook In High School!" » Cyborgology - 0 views

  • What if we, instead, proudly proclaim that we did things that we are embarrassed about and that’s okay
  • efrain might sustain the stigma that we want to end.
  • implicitly arguing this sort of behavior is best hidden

  • What if, instead, in ten years those teens-now-adults used those tweets and their lingering presence in search results as a teachable moment?
  • Let’s promote the idea that those embarrassing tweets, or anyone’s embarrassing digital dirt, can be used to validate identity change and growth.
  • we are equally celebrating the cultural norm that expects perfection, normalization, and unchanging behavior. What if more people wore past identities more proudly? We could erode the norm of identity consistency, a norm no one lives up to anyways, and embrace change and growth for its own sake
  • it will encourage an understanding of identity as more fluid. This re-understanding might be more tolerant of the non-normal and accepting of change and difference.
  • hat a person isn’t just what one is but a non-linear process of becoming rife with starts and stops and wrong turns may grow to be increasingly obvious.
  • lack of evidence of our own change.

Books in Ruins: Ebooks, temporality, and tension » Cyborgology - 1 views

  • physical spaces in all states of maintenance are by necessity temporal spaces; we orient
  • Time is a background-level context that we assume is there.
  • there are some spaces – and indeed, some object – that we perceive as more temporally-laden than others, regardless of whether or not those spaces and objects are in a state of ruin
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Books are another object that we tend to perceive as temporally-laden
  • books have time, and the reasons for this have a tremendous amount to do with our cultural history of books and what books are.
  • Books exist within these spaces; books are also of these spaces. Contemporary mass-market paperbacks aside, the default quintessential Book is old, hard-bound, possibly large and heavy, frequently dusty
  • It took a lot of time to make books, and books themselves contained a lot of time within them as part of their content. Though none of the books we read now are produced in that way, the past of books still works to shape our present imagining of them.
  • When we hold an ereader, we are aware – if only subconsciously – that time is not there in the same way that it is with a dead tree book. It doesn’t connect to all the temporally-laden ideas of Bookness that we carry around in our collective cultural memory.
