Bruce Mowbray: wb, Aph.
Aphrodite Macbain: Tx
Aphrodite Macbain: Bruce has a firm grasp on the grass
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: This is our penultimate discussion on Harari's book
Eliza Madrigal: My ipod has disappeared so I couldn't listen freshly, but I did read/listen to the section before
Bruce Mowbray: Penultimate, yes.
Eliza Madrigal: Is it?
Bruce Mowbray: So, next week will conclude both the month and the book.
Aphrodite Macbain: yes
Bruce Mowbray nods.
Aphrodite Macbain: I finally finished it. Interesting how his solution is "just watch"
--BELL--1.00
Aphrodite Macbain: I'll re-read it one day
Aphrodite Macbain: Here comes Aggers
Bleu Oleander: I don't think he was trying to give any solutions really
Eliza Madrigal: I must say, I wasn't planning to read it, but I've been pleased with the book as bringing together 'the issue', setting things out on the table
Aphrodite Macbain: yes
Agatha Macbeth: Ello
Aphrodite Macbain: Hi aggers!
Bruce Mowbray: Heya, aggers.
Riddle Sideways: Hey Aggers
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Agatha :)
Bleu Oleander: hey Aggers :)
Aphrodite Macbain: I've read it over such an expanse of time, I forget most of it. :(
Eliza Madrigal: Great pants :))
Aphrodite Macbain: Pucci pants
Eliza Madrigal: :))
Agatha Macbeth: Not pukey
Aphrodite Macbain: Not at all
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Agatha Macbeth: Liz looks somewhat colourful too
Eliza Madrigal: "send in the clownnnnsss..."
Aphrodite Macbain: So, how does your RL community compare with your SL community?
Riddle Sideways: closer
Aphrodite Macbain: I feel that in some cases they kno me better
Aphrodite Macbain: know
Aphrodite Macbain: I feel more able to share things in SL than in RL
Bruce Mowbray looks around for his "RL community" . . . sees none.
Riddle Sideways: Nomad's have communities?
Aphrodite Macbain: just the birds and the squirrels Bruce?
Riddle Sideways: *Hermits
Eliza Madrigal: It has all become so blended for me the last decade. There are some downsides
Bruce Mowbray: Nomad usually travel is tight communities - small but tight.
Bleu Oleander: RL communities are much more layered and complex
Aphrodite Macbain: nods
Aphrodite Macbain: in a good way?
Aphrodite Macbain: or a bad way?
Bruce Mowbray: Just squirrels and birds. . . and trees and stars.
Bleu Oleander: for me yes
Bleu Oleander: in a good way
Aphrodite Macbain: Sometimes I learn better from my SL community
Bruce Mowbray: Your RL communities are fostered by your online communities?
Aphrodite Macbain: there is a sort of spaciousness
Bleu Oleander: depends on what you're trying to learn I think
Aphrodite Macbain: yes
Aphrodite Macbain: I live alone too so sometimes it's easier to connect with people by email and SL than it is to connect with RL people
Aphrodite Macbain: The conversations are more measured
Bleu Oleander: I was reading about "the gaze" of another ... being seen ... which I find not as intense virtually
Riddle Sideways: lunch yesterday with a 30yr friend. Dinner tonight with 2 35yr friends
Bruce Mowbray: I really have no way to judge whether “People live ever more lonely lives in an ever more connected planet.”
Aphrodite Macbain: wow Riddle
Agatha Macbeth: You and your foung friends...
Aphrodite Macbain: nice
Agatha Macbeth: young*
Aphrodite Macbain: Interesting about the "gaze"
Bleu Oleander: yes
Tura Brezoianu: You mean, people you're been friends with that long?
Aphrodite Macbain: In some ways we are anonymous - visually anyway
Riddle Sideways: yes, and then these 10yr, friends here
Aphrodite Macbain: I have moved so often in my life, I have a hard time maintaining long-term friends
Aphrodite Macbain: and I find it's important to actually see and hear them
Aphrodite Macbain: in RL
Eliza Madrigal: I'm exhausted maintaining friendships that aren't hm, rooted in some larger vision or something
Aphrodite Macbain: nods why do you think that is Eliza?
Bleu Oleander: wow ... 10 years here ... just now checking my date
Riddle Sideways: almost Eliza
Aphrodite Macbain: wow Bleu
Tura Brezoianu: A friendship has to be about something, I think.
Aphrodite Macbain: a reason to maintain the connection
Eliza Madrigal: feels that way to me too, although I have many 'connections'
Eliza Madrigal: Happy Anniversary Bleu :) Me too.... 10 years PaB as of Valentines Day last week (sorry to miss session!)
Riddle Sideways: and also have so many light connections.
Aphrodite Macbain: I fee I know people in SL better than I know people in RL
Bleu Oleander: yes Happy Anniversary to you Eliza!
Aphrodite Macbain: Is it your Rzday?
Eliza Madrigal: The word 'friend' has been diluted in our time I think... but I feel I've connected with many *here* enough to call you friends
Eliza Madrigal: in the sacred sense
Indeed!
Aphrodite Macbain: What makes a friend?
Tura Brezoianu: "Facebook-friend" is something else.
Riddle Sideways: is it?
Eliza Madrigal: having 'seen' one another in some significant way
Bruce Mowbray: Heya, druth.
--BELL--1.15
druth Vlodovic: hey
Riddle Sideways: thanks for dropping in, dRuth
Riddle Sideways: ㋡
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Druth :)
Bleu Oleander: hi druth :)
Aphrodite Macbain watches druth land in the drink
Eliza Madrigal: Aph you like the word 'sangha', me too :)
Bleu Oleander: do you think online communities make us lazy to nurture RL communities?
Aphrodite Macbain: Yes- it cunjurse up another dimension of friendship
Aphrodite Macbain: cunjures
Agatha Macbeth: The noble sangha
Aphrodite Macbain: My values and practice are supported by my sanga
Aphrodite Macbain: and I need to practice all the time :)
Riddle Sideways: once many of an online community came to RL house for a party, as friends
Agatha Macbeth: I used to think it was a bird
Bleu Oleander: how is 'sangha' different than community?
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: they have a more supportive role for me
Tura Brezoianu: I think sangha implies striving together to travel down a common path.
Tura Brezoianu: Old joke: A friend is someone who will help you move house. A real friend is some who will help you move a body.
Aphrodite Macbain: with a common purpose and values...
Tura Brezoianu: A Facebook friend is someone who will "like" your pictures of moving house.
Aphrodite Macbain: a body Tura?
Johny Malheur's current display-name is "Johny Merveilleux".
Johny Malheur: hi all
Aphrodite Macbain: Hello Johny
Riddle Sideways: Hi Johny
druth Vlodovic: "A friend will bail you out of jail, a true friend will be sitting next to you in jail"
Bleu Oleander: hi Johny
Eliza Madrigal smiles, nodding....
druth Vlodovic: hi Johny
Bruce Mowbray: Heya, Johny.
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Johny :)
Aphrodite Macbain: You have been here before haven't you Johny?
Johny Malheur: i have
Eliza Madrigal: It isn't so simple of course. Every context has exceptions
Bleu Oleander: brb
Aphrodite Macbain: yes
Aphrodite Macbain: we are discussing how we define community Johny
druth Vlodovic: oh god, that add, the guy walking around "Hey, I LIKE, your shirt. Hi Sarah, I LIKE, your lunch."
Johny Malheur: ah
Eliza Madrigal: I'm still musing about the laziness question. Thinking, "it may", but really RL communities are weakened because we don't 'have' to make due with them
Aphrodite Macbain: Haven'tg seen that one...I guess u have to be there :)
Aphrodite Macbain: make due?
Eliza Madrigal: or, they (online communities) may make us lazier to build offline communities
Eliza Madrigal: yes... when people were born into communities for generations... and the network was a given
Aphrodite Macbain: Yes- I suppose it requires more energy and thought to build a RL commuity
Eliza Madrigal: Not sure.... so much love and time and layers in PaB over many years....
Aphrodite Macbain: Are cities aren't designed to support physical communities
Aphrodite Macbain: Our not Are
Riddle Sideways: rural towns are though
Aphrodite Macbain: a la Jane Jacobs
Aphrodite Macbain: yes- but villages are rare
Aphrodite Macbain: Farming communities are separated by great tracts of land
Riddle Sideways: going down to local village there will always be a person known
Aphrodite Macbain: I would like to live in a village with shigh speed trains to big cities
Bruce Mowbray: I'm guessng that rural villages are far tighter communities than most large cities are.
Aphrodite Macbain: You are lucky to have a local village Riddle
Tura Brezoianu: I'd rather be in the big city, with high speed trains to the countryside.
Bruce Mowbray: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: grins
Eliza Madrigal: Some of the comparison/measurement is simply nostalgia
Bruce Mowbray hopes no one build a high speed train to his hermitage.
Bruce Mowbray: +s
Aphrodite Macbain: nods
Eliza Madrigal: Although I do envy those who have strong RL communities... had always hoped PaB would become a hybrid as it seemed to be... however unlikely :)
Aphrodite Macbain: I live in a village within a large town
Bruce Mowbray: Don't city folks find community in churches, clubs hobby groups, etc?
Aphrodite Macbain: "the West End"
Aphrodite Macbain: yes-
druth Vlodovic: eh, my bestest of friends are ones I can call after a year and it isn't strange, other people seem to require regular maintenance
Eliza Madrigal: "meetup.com"
Bruce Mowbray nods to druth.
Bleu Oleander: I think PaB would be a good hybrid if we met more often in rl
Eliza Madrigal: yes
Riddle Sideways: thank dRuth, makes note to call Karl
Aphrodite Macbain: I find that after a while you dont have much to talk about after the initial connection though
Eliza Madrigal: need to play more powerball
druth Vlodovic: :P
Usenet remembered
Tura Brezoianu: I LIKE the Internet, it's a jewel (one of many) in the crown of civilisation. But I grew up before it, and my Internet life began back in the glory days of Usenet and email lists, before spam had been invented, before the web, before the eternal September. So that's what I think of as the real net.
Tura Brezoianu: To me OF COURSE the Internet brought people together, and it still does. And today, here we all are, gathered around the virtual fountain.
Tura Brezoianu: Ok, a lot of shit happens as well, but blaming the Internet is like blaming the printing press, or literacy itself.
Tura Brezoianu: Kids these days, they don't know they're born. :)
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: "alone together"
--BELL--1.30
Eliza Madrigal: We're just learning how to flow with it all, and it keeps changing
Aphrodite Macbain: what do you mean Tura?
Bruce Mowbray ponders quality of sharing. . . in both worlds.
Aphrodite Macbain: We share different things
Aphrodite Macbain: the medium is the message
Tura Brezoianu: Maybe not many here know what Usenet was, or the eternal September.
Aphrodite Macbain: what is eternal September?
Riddle Sideways: know them. remember that well
Eliza Madrigal listens
Aphrodite Macbain notices Johny left
Tura Brezoianu: Every September there would be an influx of new students at the universities, who would discover Usenet (a vast collection of distributed bulletin bboards).
Aphrodite Macbain: why eternal?
Tura Brezoianu: They'd behave like clueless newbies and the old hands would have to edicate them in the Way Things Are Done Here.
Tura Brezoianu: Then a company called AOL brought Usenet to the general population.
Aphrodite Macbain: ah
Eliza Madrigal: Ah
Tura Brezoianu: So it was like September all the time. New people were always discoveringit.
Riddle Sideways: eternal becuase it is always September for newbies now
Bleu Oleander: the seasoned are always educating the newbies
Aphrodite Macbain: I find it reassuring...
Agatha Macbeth: Lord I remember Usenet
Agatha Macbeth: Erk
Aphrodite Macbain: there will always be people who want to learn and peaople to teach
Tura Brezoianu: Then the web came and steamrollered everything and Usenet is now all but forgotten, living a zombie existence as groups.google.com.
Eliza Madrigal: Aph, btw Johny does that almost every time he visits :)
Aphrodite Macbain: odd
Agatha Macbeth: Johny come lately
Aphrodite Macbain: lol
Tura Brezoianu: Excuse the reminiscences of an oldie :)
Eliza Madrigal smiles
Agatha Macbeth: Oldies are good
Aphrodite Macbain: they;re goodies
Tura Brezoianu: The community thing goes on, though, in different forms.
Eliza Madrigal: There are people writing now, about how to get the pace and connection back, without going backwards
Aphrodite Macbain: But dont you think that we are more separated from our RL communities and friendsthan before. It's easier to send an email than make a phone call...
Eliza Madrigal: I've always been separated, so can't say.. Or, have been connected for times and seasons, but never really rooted
Riddle Sideways: and in some ways not, Aph
Bleu Oleander: yes, need to work at rl communities and friends ... can't just sit at a computer and make it happen
Aphrodite Macbain: right- perhaps it's laziness as Eliza suggested
Riddle Sideways: phoning mom back then was a pocket of dimes out in a cold phone booth
Eliza Madrigal: It isn't like sitting at a computer is not effort...
Tura Brezoianu: Phones work as well as ever. Email and hphone serve different needs, depending on whether you need a conversation or just an eventual reply.
Riddle Sideways: son and daugther cell phone every couple days
Aphrodite Macbain: quite an image Riddle
Eliza Madrigal: Laziness was Bleu's question, still musing with it :)
Aphrodite Macbain: I like to hear their voices. It's another dimension. Feels more physical
Eliza Madrigal: Online is moving more toward video anyway
Aphrodite Macbain: facetime?
Bleu Oleander: computer is definitely easier for me than going out in the rl to be with people, but the effort has greater returns, at least for me
Aphrodite Macbain: skype?
Eliza Madrigal: so blending will happening in new ways... and AR/ VR
Bruce Mowbray: yes, and Skype.
Eliza Madrigal: lots of interviews happen through skype now too
Riddle Sideways: going out in RL is an effort that is rewarded by a good glass of wine
Eliza Madrigal: we used to do WG meetings that way
Bleu Oleander: Riddle :)
Aphrodite Macbain: Your friends give you glasses of wine when you visit them Riddle?
Riddle Sideways: yep, don't your's
Bleu Oleander: yep :)
Aphrodite Macbain: so may of them dont drink :(
Bruce Mowbray: I used to meet my men's group through Skype -- but found it sorely lacking. . . I guess I needed more of a 360 degree experience, nuances, body language, etc.
Eliza Madrigal nods
Aphrodite Macbain: yes Bruce.
Bruce Mowbray: maybe even smells.
Eliza Madrigal: I'm certainly not suggesting 0% RL, love RL gatherings :)
Tura Brezoianu: There's a theory that sublime experience need to be kept rare, lest they be dulled by over-familiarity. So RL as a sublime experience to be carefully savoured could be a sort of backwards justification for the online world.
Aphrodite Macbain: I feel better returning from a university class full of people than from a meeting in SL.
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: I wouldn't call my RL experiences sublime though Tura
Aphrodite Macbain: hardly any of them
Bruce Mowbray: Harari insists that our grounding comes throuh real life, intimate communities.
Bleu Oleander: in many ways we know ourselves through knowing others ... bumping into rl people is a way of being seen and seeing ourselves
Aphrodite Macbain: nods
Riddle Sideways: Harari does not know PaB grounding
Aphrodite Macbain: Provied they give good hugs :)
Eliza Madrigal: So many meaningful and precious connections made and nurtured in SL, then bursts of sublime, yes, in RL... but there are certainly limits. Have been having a hard time lately and feel sometimes lonelier not to be near people I feel close to, vulnerable with
Agatha Macbeth: Yeh
Aphrodite Macbain: where are they Eliza? Why cant you connect with them?
Agatha Macbeth: Good question that
Eliza Madrigal: just 'timing' really, in RL or SL... times and seasons
Eliza Madrigal: It isn't about any particular structure or system
--BELL--1.45
Aphrodite Macbain: I find I am limited by my physical capabilities
Aphrodite Macbain: I cant walk very easily with my bum knee, for instance
Eliza Madrigal: yes
Aphrodite Macbain: So I have become more isolated.
Agatha Macbeth: Awww
Aphrodite Macbain: and rely on phone calls and SL to connect with others
Riddle Sideways: so, can sit and talk on phone or skype or SL
Riddle Sideways: sanp
Aphrodite Macbain: Once I have a new knee, I imagine things will improve. :)
Eliza Madrigal: we live in a pretty miraculous time in many ways
Bleu Oleander: indeed
Agatha Macbeth: The bionic woman
Aphrodite Macbain: heh
Aphrodite Macbain: I think people connected with their RL community more 100 yeas ago
Aphrodite Macbain: we have grown but have also disconnected with others
Tura Brezoianu: If they fitted in. If they didn't (consider attitudes to sexual matters) they had a hard tim eof it.
Eliza Madrigal nods, or could pretend to fit in without boiling over
Aphrodite Macbain: Maybe we should organize another RL retreat
Tura Brezoianu: and the Internet made it possible for outsiders to find each other safely.
Aphrodite Macbain: yes
Aphrodite Macbain: but allows us to keep our distance
Aphrodite Macbain: which isnt always a good thing
Riddle Sideways: then again, some of you look better in SL
Bleu Oleander: churches used to provide communities for many and that's lessened in recent years
Eliza Madrigal: we're learning :)
Aphrodite Macbain: lol
Bleu Oleander: ha!
Aphrodite Macbain: I certainly do
Eliza Madrigal: have to see the avatar in each others' eyes
Riddle Sideways: ah
Aphrodite Macbain: we present a persona of our own making
Aphrodite Macbain: winks
Bleu Oleander: and skill level :)
Eliza Madrigal: I think phones are way more of a problem than mere internet
Aphrodite Macbain: oh?
Aphrodite Macbain: how?
Riddle Sideways: proof checking during a dinner converstaion
Eliza Madrigal: they break down mannered compartments...have to be very conscious not to allow them
Bleu Oleander: people gazing into their phones constantly?
Aphrodite Macbain: lol
Eliza Madrigal: yes, and having to be constantly avail to outside forces
Eliza Madrigal: "Where were you??"
Eliza Madrigal: just feeling of urgency built into too many things
Eliza Madrigal: Although, I did make a new friend through texts this week... sending her photos of the cats we got adopted out :)
Riddle Sideways: too fast a paced life
Eliza Madrigal: yes Riddle... Harari does things to mitigate that
Eliza Madrigal: a lot of techie people are doing so now actually, leaving phones behind more, silent retreats, etc
Eliza Madrigal: work in balance
Bruce Mowbray: So, whether onlilne or offline, it's the quality of the sharng that counts, huh?
Riddle Sideways: yep
Bleu Oleander: yes
Aphrodite Macbain likes the idea of a silent retreat. It allows you to say nothing to anyone without guilt
Tura Brezoianu: People always find ways to adapt. But everyone panics while they're doing that and think the sky is falling.
Aphrodite Macbain: nods
Eliza Madrigal: we just have to be thoughtful about it
druth Vlodovic: I just lock the door, but after a few days you have to go out :(
Bruce Mowbray: :)
Aphrodite Macbain: darn shopping
Aphrodite Macbain: darn work
Riddle Sideways: darn friends
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Bleu Oleander: ha!
Aphrodite Macbain: lol
Eliza Madrigal: and all communities change, RL/SL/etc.
Riddle Sideways: yep
Aphrodite Macbain: as do we
Eliza Madrigal: very much so
Riddle Sideways: nope
Riddle Sideways: not us
Eliza Madrigal: lol
Bleu Oleander: all is change
Aphrodite Macbain: :)
druth Vlodovic: "For supper tonight we have... pie filling!"
Bruce Mowbray: YUM YUM!
Aphrodite Macbain: delicious
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Bruce Mowbray: Blueberry?
Aphrodite Macbain: May I ask... what are we going to read in March?
druth Vlodovic: I like to think morphing, the changes are often gradual, and even the big ones tend to be part of an ongoing trend with someone
Eliza Madrigal: sorry if I was a downer today... I have an inbuilt community and one of them is moving out of state next month...
Aphrodite Macbain: I'm sorry Eliza
Eliza Madrigal: so I'm having my empty nest freak out early, even though it won't be empty :)
Aphrodite Macbain: That will make you sad.
Aphrodite Macbain: I had to euthanize my male cat- I felt I had lost a friend
Eliza Madrigal: awwww
Agatha Macbeth: :(
Eliza Madrigal: (((Aph)))) that's so hard
Riddle Sideways: :(
druth Vlodovic: (( aph ))
Aphrodite Macbain: His mother wont stop crying
Bruce Mowbray: Rough.
Aphrodite Macbain: yes
Agatha Macbeth: How old is his mother?
Aphrodite Macbain: I even got a condolence card from my vet!
Aphrodite Macbain: She's about 14
Agatha Macbeth: Oh lord
Bruce Mowbray: I must be off. Have a meditation group at the top of the hour.
Eliza Madrigal: Good vet
Bruce Mowbray: Thanks to all of you.
Bleu Oleander: sorry Aph ... that's always hard!

Agatha Macbeth: Aww
Eliza Madrigal: Awesome that you did though!
Agatha Macbeth: Knock up something impressionistic ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: Hey I haven't done it yet :P
Eliza Madrigal: I spent all my time tweaking dresses
Eliza Madrigal: no?
Agatha Macbeth: Speaking of which I see Karl Lagerfeld died
Eliza Madrigal: oh... didn't know...
Agatha Macbeth: Yeh 85

Eliza Madrigal: always too young for loved ones

Eliza Madrigal crinkles eyebrows
Agatha Macbeth: OK maybe not :P
Eliza Madrigal laughs
Eliza Madrigal: sorry
