Randomly scrubbed with my finger to "feeling is reality" with Ivan Reese's voice over, which seems appropriate. Can recommend the inkling demo at -5:49:00. Anyone else have any must see recommendations?

In terms of on-stage performance, inkling is unbeatable!

My own interest is mostly in the "substrate" section (the last 90 minutes), in which I recommend all presentations (that includes "our" people: Peter Saxton, @Taylor Troesh and Orion Reed).

Joshua Horowitz's great LIVE talk on feedback reminded me of Chris Nash's PhD work on feedback and flow in notational use. The diagrams from page 101 are a good place to start repository.cam.ac.uk/bitstreams/8c3a332c-74a2-473d-aee2-8bd2f505cf34/download

That looks so good. Thanks for the rec! (& the kind words)

I’m superficially struck by the resemblance between Nash’s user-domain-notation and Hestenes’s mental-physical-conceptual (worrydream.com/refs/Hestenes1992-_Modeling_games_in_the_Newtonian_World.pdf)…

That's great! It would be nice to build up a collection of creative feedback loop illustrations 🙂
