The worst of all of them are the arshole breeders aka media art
professors...
...a couple of years before, I stumbled with a relatively famous one in
a public speech here in BH. She talked a lot about algorithmic poetics,

this poetic could really be if we cannot open all the black boxes, as
she proudly (as usually happens with this kind of colonized sprites)
used only MacOS and proprietary software...

Community is the mind of becoming we... we don't need to "go" nowhere
else if we are really in tranformation... but that takes decades, as we
learn from spaces like Espaço Tainã. Unafortunately, in Estilingue,
things are really becoming true, but in a very subtle way, creating
collective habits, sewing mutual affections which will grow as long
lasting alliances. So we better do not take our silent action as
stagnation, Armin!
