What (programmatic) behaviour could your bot enact?
2020-09-04 17:06:52 +02:00
2020-10-30 22:10:49 +01:00
- *repetition*: bots can be run repeatedly
- *condition*: bots are often written in response to a particular condition
- *iteration*: bots can be used multiple times
- *memory*: bots can rely on a database
- *tempo*: bots can operate at a specific time frame as described by the programmer
- *versioning*: bots can make multiple versions of an original source
- *amplification*: bots can extend the reach of a message

Some further questions that can help narrow down the action mode of your bot.
2020-09-04 17:06:52 +02:00
* What roles can be picked up by a bot? Is the bot for example a janitor, gardener, reporter?
2020-10-30 22:10:49 +01:00
* In what way is the bot conducive to the well-being of its context?
2020-09-04 17:06:52 +02:00
* What modes of interaction does the bot use? Is the bot for example witnessing, listening, gathering, greeting, sparking, whispering, reminding, shouting?
