summary: In 2021, Ania Molenda and Andrea Prins contacted us about a project they are doing called Beyond The Essay, where they are researching forms of online reading and writing with a specific focus on the essay in the field of architecture critique. In Varia's practice of collective infrastructure making, we often consider the sociality that is inherent within tool making and tool using. Open ended systems and extensible structures allow us to weave processes with each other and with others by adapting, extending, and transforming them. Within the Beyond the Essay meetings, we proposed three methods to engage with text in collective situations that respond to existing computational artefacts, namely tags (`__MAGICWORDS__`), indexing formats (`x-dexing`) and word2vec (`word2complex`). |
