Flaneur Musings by Teodor Mitew
The more complex and orderly the system, the more it is prone to confuse its internal states for external reality. It confuses its internal order for external one.
That is why when things glitch and get weird we see new and strange states appear. The system’s internal cohesion momentarily glitches or breaks, and we get the chance to reframe our cognitive image of reality.
That’s when we learn.

Here are the prezi slides from a guest lecture I gave on the Fail Early Fail Often philosophy [#fefo], as well as the methodology of Fast, Inexpensive, Simple, Tiny [#fist].
And below are some related gifs I made for the occasion:

So, this happened today, and space will never be the same again. This simple image has vastly bigger importance than the increased payload and reduced cost of the Falcon. And who else to accomplish this but Elon Musk – space flaneur. Suddenly, space is not an extension of the bureaucratic state machine anymore, instead it has been reframed into a place where this is possible:

We knew 2018 will be a meme year, but it’s only February and apparently there is a car in space. On its way to Mars. Where can we go from here? https://t.co/tD0gSkj7O1

Alone in the vast emptiness of space, Starman is staring at the diminishing Earth and a dashboard saying Don’t Panic. I’d like to think the glove-box really contains a copy of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and a towel. https://t.co/tD0gSkj7O1
