On slow Internet...
Remember the time, and most of you don't, when the Internet was really slow? In the early nineties, when I got online it was a very different time. But most of all the Internet was slow.

These private gardens are generative for our personal learning, but they are far from the communal gardens I grew up in that valued collective work and knowledge. Where are the digital gardens that lead us towards collective learning, play, and dreaming?”On Digital Gardens: Tending to Our Collective Multiplicity by Annika Hansteen-Izora
