JobOne thing that stood out to me at <a href="https://vis.social/tags/ComputingWithinLimits" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ComputingWithinLimits</a> yesterday was that the "Back to the Trees" talk seemed to (accidentally?) deeply engage with the <a href="https://vis.social/tags/Permacomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Permacomputing</a> topic, without mentioning it at all.<a href="https://limits.pubpub.org/pub/sapyi15v/release/1" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://limits.pubpub.org/pub/sapyi15v/release/1</a>When our little Malmö hub discussed PC we got stuck on how creating hardware is an inherently destructive process, and using what already exists is great, but not the same as the regenerative abundance that permaculture aims for. We didn't see a way out of that

viznut | Ville-Matias HeikkiläOur <a href="https://limits.pubpub.org/pub/6loh1eqi/release/1" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Permacomputing #Aesthetics paper</a> was presented by <a href="https://post.lurk.org/users/320x200" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@320x200</a> at the <a href="https://venera.social/search?tag=ComputingWithinLimits" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ComputingWithinLimits</a> 2023 workshop. I made the slides, so let me share a couple of them: Some design decisions: - Most of the slides are 640x480, some 1280x960. I turned font antialiasing off and picked some well-hinted vector fonts for the smaller texts (Ubuntu, Volkhov, Nokia Sans). - I didn't want the slides to canonize any specific interpretation of "permacomputing aesthetics", so I decided to use many different styles. - In <a href="https://venera.social/search?tag=pixelArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pixelArt</a>, I preferred "ancient pixels" (such as traditional cross-stitch patterns) to "retrocomputing pixels". - I avoided "DOS brutalism" (black backgrounds with monospaced fonts in saturated colors) and thought more about typography and posters. - The 45°/90° angularity of Art Deco ornaments fits well with monochrome pixels, so I used some of those too. - Most colors came from the cube of 6x6x6 "web-safe" colors. - Nokia Sans (used in the "MORE" slide) is an interesting font because 1) it was designed "pixels-first" to look good even on small monochrome screens, and 2) the designers had a method to measure its readability against competing fonts. - Arnold Böcklin (used in the title) is the most recognizable Art Nouveau font. There's a connection between Art Nouveau and Solarpunk, and I decided to embrace that connection. The font is also recognizable to many computer people because of its early use in desktop publishing software.
