What should education teach when endless growth no longer feels inevitable?
About repair, making, uncertainty, AI, and whether classrooms should feel a little more like workshops again.

The Willow Grows the Shelter, the Node Grows the Signal
There is something contrasting about an image showing willow growing and a solar Meshtastic node that I am toying around with currently.

I am starting a series of solar deck/cyberdeck Shedtronic Workshop projects. This is an early devlog. Follow along on substack if you are interested. These are all going to be about portable resilient solar tech projects and finding ways to run tech off-grid.

Palantir, a US spy-tech firm, has been given access to millions of NHS patient records.

Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'.

Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract.

Stop Palantir taking over our public services!
Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

I'm revisiting an earlier make on substack, thinking what's the next wearable. Possibly it's going to be a MP3 player in an old cassette tin with optional glitch tools.

For it is Plough Monday and many a Plough witch is out in the county beer begging. (Text taken from the Hookland Writer's Bible).
Plough Monday (first Monday after Epiphany on January 6th) – Plough Plays Many villages in rural Hookland will have a plough play, performed house-to-house or outside local pubs, timed to mark the traditional start of the English agricultural year. While the structure of the play varies from place to place, it will usually involve the dragging of a plough, the begging for beer or pennies to buy beer, a display of sword dancing and a play revolving around the themes of duality and resurrection with a stock cast of characters usually including a wild man or woodwose who is slain by a knight, a crow doctor who brings the woodwose back to life. The bone horse and a representation of the Old King often feature, as does someone dressed as Old Clip (the Hookland name for the Devil) who demands beer or money with menaces from the householders or those watching in the street.

A blue-tiled abandoned pool, distant sloshes, mechanical hums, a tannoy from nowhere inside Unreal 5.6.
Just space, acoustics, and something gently wrong.
