Our goal is to collect all scooters in the
area. Push them collectively, overcoming the
growing resistance of algorithms that cling with brakes
to
the
wheel every minute, more and more.
Setting-up exercises: warming up the working parts of our bodies. We are interested in muscle softness, which buffers
the resistance
of algorithms. First tensing muscles, then
becoming soft in those
parts of the body that we will mate with scooters. Strength
test of "muscle ribbons". Training is not amenable to
algorithmization. What is not yet
algorithmized is done by humans.
Going to the street. The tactical situation is indicated on the screenshot of
the application, the algorithms of which
allow you to use scooters per
minute. The
first scooter is the first
experience. Minute confusion. It is visible in
the video. The first heroine is trying the resistance of platform economies
in a situation where a collision
with these economies goes beyond the boundaries of the encoded and prepaid user experience
.
A minute passes – the siren squeals from the small holes on the
scooter wheel. Algorithmic protection of private
property. Do
not pay attention! The next scooter. The beginning of self-organization. Who
will win! We combine muscle efforts to continue resistance. And here’s the
third one! The fatigue of the collective. Cooperation. Scooter on
a scooter. Emancipative vertical. Stretching. Experience
beyond user agreement
requires effort. We are waiting for the others who
are struggling with algorithms. The next scooter has already been rolled away. But here
are two more. It turns out that the brakes
are only installed on the
rear wheel. If the two of us
roll by lifting the rear wheel, then the algorithms
resist in
vain. In
vain they spend battery power on compressing the brakes. Fatigue. Voice:
can I leave it? Give
up! Well then, I’ll give up. Voice: no, that won’t work, we are aggregating them
all,
so I’ll
pick this one up instead of you. Well, are we going home
or continuing our aggregation? Who else wants a scooter? Well, me! Then let's go. Here,
it is not far! We are almost at the border
of the blue circle of the geolocation error. There it is! From
the black van number 9, the voice of the entropy tamer of platform economies says:
"Hello! Is anything wrong with scooters? I received
a signal, I arrived." "With them everything is good – bad with our data,
which you collect
using
these
devices scattered around
the city," Marina quickly says. "What can you say about this?" "I
find it difficult, but maybe I resist ... Do you want me to
call my
boss?" "Yes, it would be very kind of you!" "Good
afternoon! Here, some kind of activists ... collect scooters around the district and carry them on
their hands ... they want to talk about their
data. They
say
that what concerns
their data is political. Ok! I'll turn on the speakerphone!"
"Hello. It's Sunday and I'm actually
at
the
gym having my training session..." "It's great, so do we. Thanks
to the devices you are in responsibility with." "So
what do you want to know?" "How do you use our data? Do you know?"
"Well, maybe I know... but I have to go
– ask
questions by email." Laughter. "Write it down!" "Thank you! Have a good training session!"
The tamer of algorithmic entropy is again one on one with us. Those who are next to him can clearly
see the chat screen with
his boss, who is now in the gym. Chatting: well, who is it... someone
like activists... are they normal? I want a
photo with them... yes, it seems like normal ... I want
to
know more... The entropy tamer says that the boss wants to
understand
better the situation and he would need to make a
photo with scooters scattered. The split of the collective
– to play along or stand aside? "Please make us a common photo." "Yeah,
done!" "Cool, thank you!" "Can you throw it to
me?" "Of course!" Bluetooth is the effort and resistance of interfaces that you
have not learned to use.
"Okay, let's use instagram!"
"OK!"
A snapshot of the disposition of forces flows into corporate data centers.
"I have the whole city in full view." Talking about working conditions. Solidarity-eyewink. "Have a
nice day!" The entropy
tamer of platform economies disappears in the street perspective. He is called by new anomalies
in the joints of human bodies, the city and the algorithms.
