Dear all, Nettime-j, it's a totally interesting idea. I would love to see nettime become generative beyond its traditional format. In that regard I tried Mastodon, but I'm just not into chat... or even, incisive but isolated comments, which would be a more fair description. Many nettime posts could be published out of the box. I agree with Allan that the heterogeneous side of the list should be preserved - academic is fine if you feel it, but there are many ways to write. Most interesting for me would be a journal that requests from an author or authors a re-eleaboration of some ideas that came out in a debate. Because often these debates take place, and retrospectively, the whole subject becomes much more expansive and interesting and precise than one could perceive at the start. That would also discourage people from writing polished things that are only posted on the list because the author wants to be published in the journal. Instead we would just take what we are already doing and push it further, toward something really original that reaches out beyond its own charmed circle. all the best, Brian On Fri, Sep 29, 2023 at 7:05 AM Allan Siegel via nettime-l < [email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > On 29/09/2023 11:57, Christian Swertz via nettime-l wrote: > > Maybe the journal can be innovative and traditional and open to > > academic and non-academic authors and audiences?
