This Chair Talks When You Sit! YouTube video by Jon Back's Creative Geek

Here's a little peak behind the curtains from part of my work at the Uppsala Castle History Museum.

A bit old, as the museum is open already, but that just means you can go there and see the final product yourself!

While I do like your framing of life around the concept of information, it also really shows what you built your career, and, I guess, life, around :-)

I used AI to automate my Twitter. Here's how!!! In this episode of The Creative Geek, Jon explores the realm of Twitter automation in a bid to maintain his sanity amidst the chaos of the platform. With Twitter resembling a "dumpster fire" lately, Jon refuses to disengage completely. Instead, he takes matters into his own hands and automates his Twitter presence in a fun and playful manner. The Creative Geek is a platform dedicated to exploring the intersection of technology, playfulness, and creativity. Through playful experimentation and automation, Jon delves into various aspects of technology, including Twitter automation, game design, interaction design, and more. ----- Chat with Jon 2.0 over on twitter: https://twitter.com/jonbck The handle is the same as here: @JonBck Buy something to show of your creative geekiness! https://geek.gallery/ Show your love, and support future videos.

The focus is on play, playfulness and interaction, rather than on the games in themselves. This can include not only computer games and board games, but also such different activities as role playing games, larp, playful IoT, augmented and virtual reality, escape rooms, pervasive games, playground design and even gamification and play based learning. We are the ones who not only consume, but also create playful geek culture, in one form or another. If you are a self-defining geek, passionate about creating, this is the place for you! I'm Dr. Jon Back, a researcher and play designer with a background in interaction design, and a long running focus on creating experiences through games and play. In this channel, I believe that play is something that’s worth taking seriously. And I believe you think so to!

Is Twitter/X making you lose your mind? We can't just leave our followers behind even if we don't want to engage with the dumpster fire ourself?

Solution: AI!
