The talk is focusing of the history of this kind of devices, from an idea that inspired me from Bunnie Huang and his <a href="https://www.bunniestudios.com/blog/?p=3345" target="_blank"> Phage Tracker (2013)</a> to more later project I’ve seen popping up lately, both commercial and DIY. It lasts approximately 45 minutes and you can grab some of the bugger whys in the paragraphs below.

I deeply thanks Bunnie himself, my dear friend Michelle Thorne and Bruce Sterling to help me reaching this notes, as well as my son Djibril, the very first person I shared this tame idea on Febraury the 20th, 2024. A thought to Eric and Peter Pan for some confrontational chats.

Here I am dispersing in a moment all the peace and resilience I had managed to feel with this little jekyllous lutòpia site on github pages, shaped in a sunny and sleepy post-Ozoran Lisbon last August '23. Estrella. All uphill. Beers and love (now lost 💔).
