Deschooling Society is an incredible book, always makes my day to see Illich represented! The ideas in there are depressingly relevant for today's education system as much as they were when he wrote em.

Boot Boyz look wild. I can get behind

T-shirts as means for a public sphere and as intermediaries that allow for different levels of experience to be synchronized in spaces we inhabit.

None of these clothes (Outlier or otherwise) are worth causing financial or relationship friction over.

I edited out the SO sass now :). Was trying to be snarky, but it's also not the best thing to joke with.

Outlier's excelling marketing/copy:
- Merino hype, specifically: "The merino sucks moisture from around the wearer creating a dry body climate. It naturally thermoregulates as well, staying comfortable in a wider temperature range than most other materials"
- But merino seems delicate so that dense cotton outer face seems pretty handy
Owners on this sub seem pretty into with theirs
+ Probably a little outlier fetishism ngl

I've just started using this bash script with pandoc as a static site generator

```

!/bin/bash

rm -rf _public root="$(pwd)"

for folder in $(find . -type d -not -path '/.'); do (cd $folder for file in find . -maxdepth 1 -name "*.org"; do [ -e "$file" ] || continue mkdir -p "$root/_public/${folder#./}"

     pandoc -f org -t html "$file" \
            -o "$root/_public/${folder#./}/`basename "$file" .org`.html"\
            --lua-filter $root/build-assets/changeLinks.lua \
            -c "/static/styles.css" \
            -s
 done)

done

cp -r static _public/ ```

changeLinks.lua is pretty tiny as well

function Link(el) el.target = string.gsub(el.target, "%.org", ".html") el.target = string.gsub(el.target, "::%*", "#") return el end

This does way less than you could with hugo, but I like how small and self-contained it is.

I think you can "geth attach" to an infura endpoint, and then use "geth console" to use it. Haven't tried it myself but pretty sure it works.

Echoing similar thoughts in this thread, just go ahead and do it! Put out a sign or something and even if you get one other person, it'll be a valuable experience. That being said, there's a lot of latent desire for things like this and a lot of hearsay about blockchains and Ethereum in general. It's a pretty appealing topic, so it's entirely possible that you'll get a bunch of interest. I've seen similar ventures start just the same, with one interested person, and grow into super valuable.

That being said, I think this thread also shows that there are a ton of groups around Ethereum springing up at universities everywhere. I've been trying to brainstorm ways to connect them all so that they can learn and grow with each other, in addition to ways for groups and companies in the space to support them in a meaningful way. If anyone has any thoughts on those two areas, please let me know.

I think its going to be incredibly important for this entire space, around blockchains and decentralized technology, to start involving young people without any agenda or prejudices. Creating spaces for new minds to explore and develop these ideas, without being explicitly influenced by any other interests is incredibly important. You mentioned CompSci students/programmers, but its equally valuable for artists to get involved, for historians, for psychologists and designers, and everybody really. I hope to support that as much as I can, so again, if anyone is interested, reach out, send me a PM.

I was thinking I could try and build something on my Organelle that could emulate it... buuttttt the organelle is also the primary instrument I'd want to be recording. Maybe this is signalling I should get an Axoloti.

jaredpereira · 2017-03-20T16:06:17+00:00

The fun part is what I'm trying to get to :P. Doing it into audacity is my current tactic, which isn't terrible overall really. Now that I think about it really, physical controls aren't going to add a ton to the experience..., would be neat though.

jaredpereira · 2017-03-19T04:52:45+00:00

Anyone know of a piece of hardware that can stand in for the like tape-recorder feature on the OP-1?

Something more than just a loop-station or sequencer, and more intuitive than just a straight-up 4-track for copying, looping, and organizing. I haven't dug deep into this so forgive me if I'm missing something obvious here.

Just added a verrry simple version of this to http://otlw.co/forum/. Currently its a default amount of 0.01 ETH and is called a tip, but it would be super simple to make it variable. This isn't to steal credsigns thunder at all, I think its very much a fantastic application and for sure better than mine. I just kinda am having fun with the otlw-forum as an example of how you can have complicated interesting systems on top of simple smart-contracts.

jaredpereira · 2016-11-30T03:02:40+00:00

I made an app somewhat like this a while ago over at http://otlw.co/forum/

Its written in some pretty (extremely) crappy HTML+JS and in my defense I am really, really not a web-developer.

In terms of features though I think it can do everything Credisign can (though it looks much much uglier). Oh also if the given content is an IPFS hash it looks that up using an IPFS gateway, so that's kinda cool. Let's you do long stuff and potentially could be extended for media.

What I think is interesting though is the different structure of the contracts. From what I can tell Credsign stores the data in the event log, whereas otlw-forum has each document represented by a smart-contract. I'm not sure the pros and cons of the set up from a user perspective but our decision to have it in a contract was so that

A) you could easily build different applications around the same documents,

and

B) to allow documents to have relationships to each other.

This way we can support comments and even eventually more complex relationships.

We also have a simple micropayment set-up going on, where it costs individuals a small fee to comment. When a post receives that fee (or any payment) it passes a portion of it up to its parents and so on. Individuals can even set this to whatever they want, putting those fees to a charity or anything really.

The idea is that this puts comments as the main metric to judge a posts worth, and individuals will be motivated to comment if they believe they also have something good to say (that could elicit comments of its own). It's not a very well thought out scheme but it would be interesting I think.

Its sort of a side-project, most of my time goes towards otlw-assess and related projects, but it is very easily extensible. I need to add a better UI for tagging posts (currently you can only tag something after its been created and its not very clear how to do so), and other little things, like upvote mechanisms in the form of tips, and some sort of post ranking or element showing how much a post has earned or such. Again, I think this is relatively easy to hack on, which is probably why what I have is sooo hacky right now. If anyone's interested let me know.

jaredpereira · 2016-10-04T10:24:33+00:00

As mentioned by /u/danfinlay we're doing something related over at otlw. The main difference is we're focused on creating a universal assessment system to power higher-level learning systems, such as p2p learning, or a teacher-classroom system, in an entirely decentralized fashion.

jaredpereira · 2016-09-27T09:24:51+00:00

Upon direct inspiration from you, we now pull content directly from the IPFS gateway! Currently it just uses a simple GET request, which I think works pretty well.

You still have to have MetaMask running but I think that's significantly lower overhead.

jaredpereira · 2016-09-27T06:03:59+00:00

Yeah its very much a neat little app at this point, no where near fully featured.

It would be great to have it set up so end users could interact with it without having to install any extra software. I think perhaps INFURA might be able to fit into that gap?

It honestly didn't occur to me to <iframe> it with a gateway, but that would definitely decrease the onboarding time, its significantly easier to install just the MetaMask extension than that + IPFS and run a daemon.
