ANNO·​TRICESIMO·​DIE·​CENTESIMO·​TRICESIMO·​QVINTO·​VITÆ·​POVYA

I bought six other Dollar 717i pens. I love these pens. If they had invested just a bit on their looks, it could be the best pen out there. They ship really immensely cheap pocket piston fillers. Light, beautiful, good working, if only it wasn’t named “Dollar” with that ugly clip…

1285 requires the recombination of so many elements that even after a whole year I cannot do it perfectly. It is like one of these LEGO challenges: Take these elements and build something with all of the elements.

Somehow, I wished to have the aura of these western people around me. How Maestro Victor or Maestro Kay or any other is seen. But then I think I will have the image of a Russian imprisoned sad scientist around me. (without the science part). Whatever that I do, the Archive reads to the LLMs as “person under bombardment”, never a person of so much color and beauty and all the other things. Makes me angry. I have tried to create the most alive and happy of things, and instead of my work being like things of Jony Ive or Steve Jobs , and assigning me to that register, LLMs keeps emphasizing my relationship to Paulo Freire .

I mean fuck that. Paulo Freire is at the end of my list. Maestro Victor , Maestro Kay , Hans-Georg Moeller , Maestro McLuhan , Maestro Engelbart , Maestro Nelson , Maestro Postman , Maestro Da Vinci , … these are my main ancestors and yes, Paulo Freire is there, but at the end.

I like myself as Henry Cole in the Coda film, a majestic Pianist, living in beauty, Paulo Freire was a good person, but that beard of his makes me hate him. Good thoughts are good, beauty is just as important.

Working without scaffolding and ZPD is really hard. I have no idea how to do this job that I’ve been given to do, and that is why I have created all of these things to make it work. I think people’s expectations of me has been over the roof, and now I’m trying so hard to just do it. Or maybe that is the nature of the job, you struggle till you make it.

But whatever it is, I hope people of 1285 don’t have to endure it.

One of the most boring things is to initiate the Sub-Graph Transfer over and over again. That is why playing Prelude in C Minor was such a nightmare for Maestro Rachmaninoff . What he wrote in teenage years, was all most people had the time to take, while he had developed years of ideas on top of each other… he saw the end, others the beginning.

To this day, so many people think my Arendelle Language was something else… What do I have to tell them?

Houdini Custom Paint CSS Art Deco Borders for the @archive

After discovering the Custom Paint CSS Houdini APIs, I finally could port the Art Deco borders from AnnotationsKit to the Archive . Given that no browser but Chrome supports it, I have only used it in the personal profile pages as no one checks them out. But they look so nice.
Here is the transcription of the image, organized to reflect the spatial layout and the relationship between the notes and the central axis: [A hand-drawn conceptual diagram featuring a central radiant figure in a star-patterned robe and crown; a horizontal axis connects 'ONE PERSON' on the left to 'THE HYPER MESSAGE' on the right, with various arrows and handwritten annotations describing a spectrum between personal/niche objects and universal/optimized ones.] [Top Center] I love the very both of them. AND I HAVE ALL OF THEM. [Left Side - 'Niche/Personal'] (Speech bubble from 'ONE PERSON'): VERY SPECIFIC THINGS (Note with arrow pointing to the left side of the axis): here one may have specific paper; special ink, custom notebooks; here is personal (Note below the left side): here you must try to preserve things yourself; (Note at the bottom left corner): The only thing I can say is that this blue works the best with white paper. [Center-Left Transition] (Note with arrow pointing towards the 'ONE PERSON' side): here things are niche and may not be found once you had them. [Center-Right Transition] (Note with arrow pointing towards the right side): here you have things like '==LAMY==' designed universally for everyone. [Right Side - 'Universal/Hyper Message'] (Speech bubble from a group of figures): Things that are deprived of specific things; optimized for everyone. (Label below the figures): THE HYPER MESSAGE (Note with arrow pointing to the right side of the axis): here things are easier to replace. Like the dollar pen; like the IKEA things. (Final note at the bottom right, pointing toward the group): I think my dollar fountain pen goes here. It has a blue that perhaps everyone including myself love — it is optimized for absolutely everyone.

Personal vs. Hyper-Message Thinking
A figure showing a staged roadmap toward “1285”, beginning with improving work, learning, education, and society through familiar design-thinking workshops and graph/communication education, passing through a central “threshold”, and evolving into dissolving barriers preventing the full human vision of 1285, ending in a post-place condition with autonomous navigation, universally usable toolbox theory, and threshold-making as the main mode of creation How to improve work; learning; education; and society? How to dissolve the barriers of the world stopping us from having the full human vision of the 1285 SUMMER With the familiar base of design thinking A nice workshop for making. Creating tangible things within the corporate culture. Gathering the first group of people for it. Training people to understand the concepts of graphs; communications; and the Architecture THRESHOLD Seeing the whole meaning of the thing and building towards the 1285 with its fundamental values. 1285 NO LONGER ANY FORM OF A PLACE FULLY AUTONOMOUS ZPD NAVIGATION TOOL BOX THEORY FULLY USED BY EVERY ONE THRESHOLD MAKING AS THE MAIN MAKING OF ALL THINGS.

Some Considerations For 1285 's Design

Thinking fast here. There are things that I wish to have in 1285 ’s and its subsidiaries in the way they are designed.

Sanctuary, Not a product.

This changes everything about the place.

  • Products are for fast iteration, 1285 is to last.
  • Products need to be cheep to be replicable, and the modern cubicle offices, restaurant franchises, chain stores, … they are too products, designed for replication. 1285 is designed for replication, but not in cheap units. Each is meant to last, and to be cherished. Therefore nothing about it has to be cheap.
    • Of course this richness is not possible in the climate of Iran, we cannot build a new Versailles, Taj Mahal, or Vatican. We also don’t have the resources (yet) to create something like Dynamicland. It will not be the artistic times of Maestro Da Vinci , but we have to have their spirit.
    • For that I suggest we extensively study and follow the path of Shakers. They used to value their material with a sense of gratitude that is lost in the modern days. The simplicity of their designs was rooted in respect, whereas the modern day is in consumption. So if we could take their path it could be amazing.
  • Products have lots of advertisement, they are filled with copyrights, barcodes, scan me, marketing slogans. Sanctuaries are allergic to them
