How does the coffee maker work? What’s the best way to teach humans about computers? How does it work? What can I use it for? How can I break it? Is “poetic computation” possible? How can I understand the tool deeply without forgetting that it’s only a tool? How can I be generous? What happens when combine strictly “human” things like spirituality/ethics with logical machines? How can we use technology but avoid idolizing it as utopian? How can we riff on the phrase “spiritual technology”? What can we do with this loading dock? What can we learn about ourselves by simulating human experience with machines? How do you build a metaphysical machine? How do you build a transformative machine? How can we build machines for asking questions rather than “solving” problems? What about the body?
