| test., | ==== Welcome to the Libarynth... ==== |
| | |
| | The ever-growing Libarynth is almost exactly what its name implies – a hybrid between a library and a labyrinth, a maze of pages in various stages of completion. It is a deeply intertwingled collection of documents, notes and [[randomness]] - many of which are related to [[start?do=search&id=foam|FoAM]], a network of transdisciplinary labs at the intersection of art, science, nature and everyday life. |

| | FoAM's collaborators, friends and sympathisers use the Libarynth as a research diary, sketchbook, or activity log. Some sections of the Libaryth are [[project_archives|well structured]], others are overgrown and forgotten. Pages can be found on a [[category_index|variety of topics]], from [[visual programming]] to [[experience_inflatables|inflatables]] or vegetarian-friendly [[restaurant guide|restaurants]] around the world, lists of [[Culture Ships]] or [[luminous/steady_state_economics|steady state economics]], or perhaps notes about [[fermentation_notes|fermentation]]. Many pages are in development, containing a few links or a couple of short notes (inviting interested [[wiki_gardening|wiki-gnomes]] to expand them). Others are more complete [[foam_research_reports|research reports]], [[foam_publications|publications]] or [[reading notes]]. For weeks the Libarynth might be quiet, punctuated with sudden bursts of activity, as can be seen in [[start?do=recent|recent changes]]. As a living archive of FoAM's interests and activities, the Libarynth is continually changing and [[start?do=index|expanding]]. |
| | |
| | For some the Libarynth can be overwhelming, so we advise caution when first treading over its threshold. Once comfortable within the overgrown wilderness, you are very welcome to contribute: by starting new topics, editing existing pages, or making new connections into or out of the Libarynth itself, beyond its porous edges. |

| | |
| | |
| | Here are a few possible starting points: |
| | |
| | * [[Project Archives]], such as [[:/future_fabulators/start|Future Fabulators]], [[parn/borrowed_scenery_arn|Borrowed Scenery]] and [[:/open_sauces/start|Open Sauces]] |
| | * [[foam_publications|Publications]], from the [[:/futurist_fieldguide/start|Futurist Fieldguide]] to [[field_guide_to_flying_saints|Fieldguide to Flying Saints]], across [[groworld vegetal culture]] and [[enacting_futures_in_postnormal_times|enacting futures]]... |
| | * [[Residencies and Transiencies]] |
| | * [[foam_workshops|Workshops]] |
| | * [[Doing Nothing]] |
| | * [[Reading Notes]], from [[2312_by_kim_stanley_robinson|2312]] to [[zibaldone_the_notebooks|Zibaldone di pensieri]] |
| | * [[Lecture Notes]] |
| | * [[orphan_pages|Orphan Pages]] |
| | * Attempts at categorisation: [[category_index|Category Index]], [[parn/garginz|Garginz]], [[augmented_ecology|Augmented Ecology]] |
| | * Number six: [[calvino_heuristics|Six memos for the next millennium]], [[Six easy steps to avert the collapse of civilisation]], [[The six aspects of the well-conceived voyage]] |
| | * Random picks: [[2013_foam_winter_solstice_ceremony|Yule Ceremony]], [[Thalience]], [[Powerpoint debilitation]], [[The Internationale]], [[Structured procrastination]], [[Menu for Monday]] |
| | * [[[[start?do=index|The Full Index]] |
| | * If in doubt (or curiosity) use Search. |
