vog (a BETA videoblog)

One of the original ones, video, sound and a text track making some propositions (reproduced below) about links and force. In the context of vogs links are also edits, as well as things within videos that make things happen, that do. This was originally 194 x 144 pixels in size, have presented it at double resolution so that it doesn't disappear into our rather larger modern screens.

From the original post:

A class in Bergen.

Links (buttons,or however things are connected in new media) are promises that generate connection and hermeneutic connectedness.

As promises they express force.

As a promise they are not subject to truth or falsity but are governed by felicitiousness.

Felicity is about being good, or not so good.

Links can't be untrue, just bad.

Rules about what is good, or bad, are not about what is true, or false.

Rules about what is good, or bad, are always made as if they were about what is true, or false.

Rules about what is good, or bad, are always ideological.

Ideology is always about force.

Force can be good. force can be bad.

Force does not know true, or false.

What is the force of a link?

What is the ideology of a link?
