Forum discussion and salon livestream.Four hundred years before the term artificial intelligence emerged, debates about the development of “artificial memory” stirred. In contrast to natural memory, artificial memory involves using aids to help us remember. It represents a procedural, protocolized approach to recollection. -Kei KreutlerCatch the replay of Yancey Strickler's talk on culture labels and the future of creative enterprise. He's abuzz with great ideas about business and creativity. Yancey's new venture, Metalabel, just launched in a big step towards the protocolization of artistic collaboration.

Posting in the forum is the fastest way to do that. Share an article or video that lit up your prefrontal cortex to spark up a conversation. Ask last year's cohort members some domain-specific questions. Or highlight some protocol news in the evergreen Protocol Watch Thread. Peruse the ForumUpdates on kits and SoP IIModule 2 of the kit is just about finished. After a couple of slow iterations, production processes are becoming streamlined. A more regular shipping tempo should emerge soon. Program details, logistics, and an application portal for the upcoming summer cohort will all be released in the next month or so. There is some cool stuff planned, including partner events. Stay tuned.Protocols in the newsTwo Nations, a Horrible Accident, and the Urgent Need to Understand the Laws of SpaceSimple Precision Time Protocol at MetaStonelifting EtiquetteHighlander Rock Paper Scissors Protocol“Hi, I'd like to hear a TCP joke.” “Hello, would you like to hear a TCP joke?” “Yes, I'd like to hear a TCP joke.” “OK, I'll tell you a TCP joke.” “Ok, I will hear a TCP joke.” “Are you ready to hear a TCP joke?” “Yes, I am ready to hear a TCP joke.” “Ok, I am about to send the TCP joke.
