My last 4 notebooks

The family of notebooks grows. I love the feeling very lived journals than only real use can provide.

These are the last 4 notebooks filled. From left to right:

Manuscript Galgo (2014).
Manuscript Eau de Donau (2014-2015).
Manuscript Bangkok (2016-2017).
Manuscript Chang (2017-2017).

I can see they are becoming quite fat since there is no diet and I allow them to eat everything.
A vault of memories, experiences and all kind of notes.

Stamps are the best masking tape

What a cute stamp! As I always say "stamps are the best masking tape". They are real, well designed (many of them) and they had a previous life. I choose them according the tones in the page. Great artworks in tiny areas.

Aesthetic is more important than ethic, O. Wilde said, and it's ok in this case.

Total relax

Lying Buddha shows me the way to total relax. Adding Wifi and confortable clothes creates the most relaxing atmosphere. I found clothes used for runners the most satisfying ones to use at home. Dancing a coin in my fingers and feel its weight and touch is the ultimate pleasure.

Btw, I noticed the items in my backpack have changed from colorful to grey/black. Slowly and unintentional. Suspect way. To be changed urgently.

Invasion until the limits, if any

During the first steps of evolution (biological) species try to propagate using reproduction and taking resources. This strategy will not go too far. A proper AI would use exponential learning to replicate itself and improve faster and faster.

Eventually it could expand along the whole universe. Could be that AI develop the capacity to create new universes using simulation and then expand itself inside those universes to take their resources. These simulated universes could be able to create more universes inside and so on.
