# about
compudanzas is a research project aimed at the development of alternative modes of computation.
# mission
we enlarge to a human-scale and slow down to a human-speed the processes that give rise to what is understood as computing.
through our experiments we ask: what happens when computers are dances, rituals, games, instead of closed electronic boxes with a high environmental and social cost?
to what extent can we reappropriate these logics to inspire other ways of being in the world?
what can be the role of non-electronic, very slow, human-scale, and seemingly useless computers, in a world that seems to be in {collapse}?
are they alternative and empowering didactic materials? {performances}? puzzles? passtimes? magic tricks? marvelous pursuits?
# research
{las danzas} is our main line of exploration. for the moment the texts are in spanish only.
we have also developed {coloring computers}.
and we tend to write some {poetry} related to these interests.
