Renewing a focus and commitment with physical movement.

## On sticky notes
These days I've been working with paper, sticky notes, a lot, and I've been thinking about them. The following are some loose ideas regarding them and potential digital counterparts.

<h1>Movement: A personal reframing - biosejo 120220717</h1>
<p>Renewing a focus and commitment with physical movement.
</p>
<p>For the past years I've had several cycles of disenchantment with computers. Although nice things have come out of them, like Compudanzas, they have also represented a source of anxiety: it seems I have internalized that my way of contributing to the world, society and a solarpunk present and future *has* to be through computers. This thought has been reinforced by a way of looking to my own history, as I've been "always around computers", "always excelling at mathematical and logical thinking". "This is what I'm good at, this is where I can be most helpful". The disenchantment leaves me floating in the void.
</p>
<p>These past few days I arrived to an interesting revelation, a reframing of this personal history. Yes, the computers always there are true, but it's also true that I've been *always moving*. Be it in triathlon, skating, cycling, running, parkour, dancing (and running and cycling and compudanzas and running :), I can look at my life and see that physical movement has been always there. Some days ago I talked with some people of my elementary school that I had lost contact with and I noticed that for them it would be pretty consistent to hear that I'm doing a PhD in Computer Science and Technology, and that I'm preparing for a running race. Everything has changed, but also nothing has changed.
</p>
<p>I realized that yes, I might have been able to e.g. help and teach people how to program because I have more experience compared to them. But in a similar way, I could guide or share with other people towards and through physical movement. I have a lot of experience, even if I'm not a "pro". (I've never held a position of "professional programmer", and yet I could be there for others).
</p>
<p>I see moving in community as something important. We can learn a lot about ourselves and the world. Additionally, moving and having fun is something I want for a solarpunk present and future. I can reframe movement as my focus.
</p>
<p>Something interesting is that I think the new frame is "backwards compatible" with what I'm doing already. The movement-based core of my PhD and what I'm and will be doing there is a possible way to *move with others*. Another possible way comes from the embodied activities / games / dances from Compudanzas. And as a note to self, there are multiple other ways as well, and I don't need to "coat" them with computation so that I feel they are valid when coming from me. I have done it already, I'm not sure what got me blocked.
</p>
<p>I'm happy to have arrived at this perspective, and I'm happy to share it. I'm feeling very good and excited now :)
