~*~ -~*~- MAIN CHECKLIST -~*~- ~*~

Welcome. This is an evolving process. As you can see below if we follow these steps soon we'll have more than one process in this fuck sauce, each slightly different from the others. Please continue whichever ones you like or think will be most successful, to help the whole population improve.

This particular family is somewhat loose and chaotic, so anyone may do any of the steps however they like. If you don't like what someone's doing or what they're proposing with their edits/mutations, try switching to a different strain.

The objective of this species of process is to increase its participants' ability to communicate and thus act freely. In particular this family of processes organizes a series of momentary events known collectively as the Ungraspable Festival. Because it's always changing and adapting, this species of process is able to resist attempts at censorship, infiltration and disruption that would be more effective with more static processes.

Some of these steps call for the creation of "etherpads," which is a kind of collaboratively edited document. Please use a variety of Etherpad servers, in general, to improve the resilience of the overall population. Sites that run Etherpad: https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/w...erpad-Lite

[ MJ! ] ANIMAL MASCOT

Each process in this family has a species of animal as a mascot. (If one hasn't been chosen yet for this process, please choose one and announce it prominently at the top of this etherpad!) Please write a very short story involving this process's animal mascot here, perhaps one that metaphorically portrays this process's situation.

I X Key chose SLOTH!

[ MJ! ] PLANT MASCOT

Each process in this family also has a species of plant as a mascot. (If one hasn't been chosen yet for this process, please choose one and announce it prominently at the top of this etherpad!) Please write a very short story involving this process's plant mascot here, perhaps one that metaphorically portrays this process's situation.

I X Key chose Parrot Flower (Heliconia)!

[ MJ! ] MUSHROOM MASCOTS

Each process in this family can have many mushroom mascots! Please choose a mushroom to act as a mascot for this process, even if some have already been chosen, and add the new mushroom to the collection at the top of this etherpad.

I X Key chose Cordyceps!

[ MJ! ] ANTHEM RHYTHM

Each process in this family has a rhythm associated with it. Please write here a rhythm for this process, or a variation on its rhythm if it already has one.

X = strong treble tone
x = weak treble tone
O = strong bass tone
o = weak bass tone
- = rest

[ MJ! ] PING REDDIT

Please post an update about how this process is going to the evolving processes reddit at http://www.reddit.com/r/evolvingprocesses/ If there's already a thread about this process linked above, you can just post a comment on that thread with an update about how the process is doing, but if there isn't a thread yet (or you think there's an important new development in the process that warrants a new thread) you should make a new one.

[ MJ! ] THINK ABOUT THE UNGRASPABLE FESTIVAL BROADLY

Please write a few thoughts here about the progress of the Ungraspable Festival broadly. How is it developing?

I think it'll help a lot to formalize an image making step to make images like this http://imgur.com/5OSdYwn or any sort of promotional imagery. Images make more of an impression, certainly on busy timelines. It'd be even better to combine multiple mascots into an image so it's actually something unique. But captioning on that new imgur meme captioner is just too easy, so that's a step that I feel like it's totally worth throwing in everywhere.

Oh, that's something that would be useful in general, a document with good instructions and scraps of code. Maybe an instruction after Mutate that says to put any new instructions or texts into that document.

[ MJ! ] SCHEDULE QUIET MUSIC CONCERT

Please choose a date and exact time and place for a Quiet Music performance of this process's anthem rhythm. Try to schedule the concert far enough in the future that it'll be possible to do the promotional steps below. List this concert at the appropriate place on the Ungraspable Festival schedule at http://qikpad.co.uk/p/UngraspableFestivalSchedule

12:32am at the ex-fountain at the North end of Church St, a Quiet Music concert on the rhythm OoXxxOoXxx, from the Sloth, Parrot Flower, Cordyceps process http://piratenpad.de/AdhTqz0IT5

[ MJ! ] PROMOTE QUIET MUSIC CONCERT

(If the scheduled time for this concert has already passed, please skip this step.) Please mention this concert somewhere so someone will know that it's happening. Where did you mention it?

(If the scheduled time for this concert has already passed, please skip this step.) Please tweet about this concert on the hashtag #quietmusic and link here to that tweet: https://twitter.com/mungojelly/status/36...2554372096

[ MJ! ] WAiT UNTIL CONCERT

Please wait to continue this process until the scheduled concert time.

[ MJ! ] REPORT ON CONCERT

Please give a brief report on how the concert went (or whether to your knowledge it occurred at all).

Hmm well it went alright I guess. Again someone came up to me during the concert and asked "do you play" which again seemed an odd question as I was, quietly, playing. Then he borrowed my drum to drunkenly randomly tap it for a bit. I told him he had to tilt it to let the bass tone out. But he was too drunk to really learn much and when I suggested he should maybe not play so loud that he attracted unwelcome attention that could also shut down the nearby guitar-and-violinning, he got up and waved his hand dismissively at the whole affair as he left. On the whole a succesful concert I suppose. I got some good practice playing in five (and/or ten) even though this rhythm's quite simple so far.

[ ] SCHEDULE A FLASH MEETING

Please choose a date and exact time and place for a brief general structureless conversational meeting about the progress and development of the Ungraspable Festival. Try to schedule the meeting far enough in the future that it'll be possible to do the promotional steps below. List this meeting at the appropriate place on the Ungraspable Festival schedule at http://qikpad.co.uk/p/UngraspableFestivalSchedule

[ ] PROMOTE FLASH MEETING

(If the scheduled time for this meeting has already passed, please skip this step.) Please mention this meeting somewhere so someone will know that it's happening. Where did you mention it?

[ ] MUTATE

Below should be yet another copy of this same checklist. Please attempt to slightly improve that version of the checklist in some way, so that this process can continue developing and exploring its own unique path. What changes did you make?

[ ] SPRUCE UP

Below should be yet another copy of this same checklist. Please go over it all once finding and fixing any little errors you can find, such as typos or confusing phrasings.

[ ] COPY

Below should be yet another copy of this same checklist. Please copy it TWICE into a new etherpad (at https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/w...erpad-Lite there should be a list of servers to consider using) and link to it here:

Feel free to start following the steps in this child process, which is now ready to come to life.

[ ] LOOP

Below should be another copy of this same checklist. Please copy that whole clean checklist and paste it again below itself, so there's yet another copy for the next iteration to mutate. Then continue following the steps on the checklist below this one again from the beginning, so this process continues in a gradually developing duplicating loop.
