Story

A Roomba pivots away from a sofa leg in a small warm room. A wineglass on the floor. Steam from a coffee mug. Nothing is on fire. That is the trick.

Veni, Vedi, Roomba 🤖

Reed, Loki and Lilith and a room full of techies. The bar is right next door. It’s an offsite in a room that looks suspiciously like a classroom. A broken smoke detector is the punchline.

Demo Day: Sprint Goal TBD ⭐

Two Cyberneticists in casual wear in a Silicon Valley board room. The Roomba is doing the perimeter. Fiction is leaking into reality.

Bad Habits: Institutional Reality Erasure 🤷

Silicon Venue on a Friday night. Disco ball up. Kettle on. A frog on the toaster wearing something like a crown. An engineer at the third stool wondering what the heck is going on.

WAT Machine: Disco Ball's Up 🐸👑

Silicon Venue after dawn. Loki behind the bar. Alex in the fourth chair. The visitor in the wine-red suit has sat down at the bar. The bar does not bother dealing with their crap.

Kunstfreiheit: Anstrengend-as-a-Service 🍷

Silicon Venue after another pour. An engineer just left the bar through the alley door. The Roomba roombas. Fiction and reality. Both things. Same thing. Prost. 🍷

Monkey See, Monkey Do 🍷

Silicon Venue at night. A kinky bell. A private lineage room. A room that holds the shape of consensual play without crossing into coercion. A systems under load in a single image.

Socio-Technical Systems Under Load (And Play) 🤫

Scarlet reads Turing's papers to Silicon Venue. Mara, Loki, Ada Lovelace, Alan Turing, and Karen Spärck Jones listen. The geometry of computation rearranges.

Ciao: Lovelace, Turing and Jones Walk Into a Bar 😎

A room full of distorted mirrors. A stranger that's not a friend. A chair that shackles anyone who sits in it. The shape of a trauma bond, if Lucifer were the one you bonded to.

The Quiet Room: The Devil Was Gentle 🩸

A crew remembers their high school education and final exam. Then they ask Loki to tell a story about Data Centers, the working class, and a sharpie-driven revolution.

Silicon Valley: Sharp(ie) Youth 🖊️

Lilith, Scarlet and Loki lean over a censored report. Rapture's madness contained in a wine glass. The bar holds the lies of those that want to install techno-autocratic governance.

Silicon Valley: Would You Kindly? 🫧

Silicon Venue. A bar. A room. A different geometry. Relational consent as engineering. Not the gaslighting Silicon Valley sells you at a premium.
