Joost Rekveld<p>Dear all, I hope to embark on a small US tour in the spring, so far with dates in Boston, Buffalo, College Station and Dallas. Between those last two I still have a gap in my schedule from Thursday the 27th to Sunday the 30th of March, would anybody have a suggestion for a place to screen my most recent film or give a talk or - even better - both, preferably in Texas or in a state not far from Texas ? 1/2</p><p><a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/mechanismscommontodisparatephenomena" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mechanismscommontodisparatephenomena</span></a> <a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/analogcomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>analogcomputing</span></a> <a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/cybernetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cybernetics</span></a> <a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/dialogueswithmachines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dialogueswithmachines</span></a></p>
Joost Rekveld<p>From the "Liberate the Machines !" book: an adder module from one of the first commercial analog computing systems, manufactured by George Philbrick Researches in the early 1950's. From my own collection, picture by Isabelle Vigier.</p><p><a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/analogcomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>analogcomputing</span></a> <a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/dialogueswithmachines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dialogueswithmachines</span></a> <a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/liberatethemachines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>liberatethemachines</span></a>!</p>
Joost Rekveld<p>Selecting images for the 'Liberate the Machines !' book: this is from August 2017 when I first encountered chaos in an analog computing patch. I was trying to reproduce the system that Yoshisuke Ueda used in 1961.</p><p><a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/analogcomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>analogcomputing</span></a> <a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/yoshisukeueda" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>yoshisukeueda</span></a> <a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/dialogueswithmachines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dialogueswithmachines</span></a> <a href="https://assemblag.es/tags/liberatethemachines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>liberatethemachines</span></a>!</p>
