Varia prints all the news that can fit in SomeTimes. The fifth issue is dedicated to the temporary, the not quite ready yet, the flourishing, and the almost over. Our public programme in 2024 is titled Seasonal Computing. This issue of SomeTimes is dedicated to Seasonal Computing and all its seeds, apple-cores, mini-pears and the flourishings and wiltings that have happened and will soon come to be.

In 2021, Ania Molenda and Andrea Prins contacted us about a project they are doing called Beyond The Essay, where they are researching forms of online reading and writing with a specific focus on the essay in the field of architecture critique. Within the Beyond the Essay meetings, we proposed three scripts to engage with text in collective situations that respond to existing computational artefacts, namely tags (__MAGICWORDS__), indexing formats (x-dexing) and word2vec (word2complex).

Starting from today, Varia will print all the news that can fit in SomeTimes: a collection of posts about things we have done, are doing now – learning, reading, making, researching – and stuff that will happen soon.
