I'm one of this year's NYSCA/NYFA artist fellows in Digital/Electronic Arts! Really grateful for this recognition, and to be among so many amazing fellows 🥹

Almost there. What Design Can't Do will be out in late October with Set Margins', but you can already pre-order it. Here is the cover, designed by Federico Antonini. More info and pre-order here: setmargins.press/books/what-des…

When I get emails from @TheNewSchool's Exec. VP for Business & Operations announcing no pay or healthcare for striking adjuncts, I think about his ~$500,000 salary, while I'm fighting with @UAW7902 to get ~$7,500 to teach a class. #NewSchoolStrike

Now Accepting Applications @MediaArtX invites storytellers, performers, and creative technologists to submit to our 2023 MAXmachina lab. We are looking for projects that expand live performance through science and technology. Image of Lizardly performed at MAXlive 2021

Dear tech workers, the time to take climate action(s) is NOW! 🌍Apply to become an #OpenClimate fellow!🌍 We're looking for 7 fellows interested in working on intersections between open technology projects & the climate crisis. + info at: open-climate.org/fellowship/

@shannonmattern So am I :) I’m rooting for you that Penn will make for an easier-to-write goodbye post!

@shannonmattern Thank you for this essay 🙏 Taking your class was my most cherished “only at The New School” experience!

I guess I did sign up for Mastodon? @philippschmitt@mstdn.social

@TonyZador Thank you for finding these! I might need to do another project just about plots of neuron activations, gradient descent, etc. :)

@philippschmitt Neural Networks and Physical Systems with Emergent Collective Computational Abilities J. J. Hopfield PNAS 1982;79;2554-2558 doi:10.1073/pnas.79.8.2554 unfortunately this paper doesnt have great figures

@SeerMarkets No they don't. These diagrams are either in the public domain and/or copyright of their respective authors or the academic journals where the paper was published.

@donatoaz @thomaskipf Thanks for the suggestion. At least stylistically these diagrams should be well-represented in the collection :)

@philippschmitt Awesome work! I also missed graph based NNs such as @thomaskipf relational graph convo networks

@BobThibadeau @hhmmss @Grady_Booch I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'd love to talk to Selfridge about his demons.

@philippschmitt @hhmmss @Grady_Booch Philipp, I read your intro and liked it. I knew Oliver Selfridge, by the way. Here is how your brain computes from a language neuroscience perspective: medium.com/liecatcher/how… I'm among the longtime believers in neural model explanations (50 years now).

@mashahupalo Thanks :)

Trees, flows and other metaphors in explaining neural networks. Such a great collection. philippschmitt.com/blueprints-for… @philippschmitt

@chrismoffett Thank you :)

Really nicely done
