<p>Artifacts of the Artificial was an installation show I made with <a href="https://cameron-burgess.com/">Cameron Burgess</a> in Fall of 2019. It was inside CMU's on-campus <a href="https://www.facebook.com/theframegallerycmu/">Frame gallery</a>.</p>

(thanks to Cameron for making the kickass display and pretty much all of the rest of the show)</p>
<p>One Artifact we made was <a href="https://a9.io/folia">Folia</a>. Try combining the cards together!</p>

Artifacts of the Artificial


This is [Max Krieger](https://a9.io)'s "inquiry" page. I guess it's like a [Digital Garden](https://github.com/MaggieAppleton/digital-gardeners). But I'm not trying to upload my Second Brain to it. Just want to share some half-baked ideas. One source of inspiration for this was Kevin Lynagh's ["Collaboration ideas"](https://kevinlynagh.com/ideas/). See also Sharif Shameem's ["Questions"](https://sharif.io/questions/).

It was made with [Dendron](https://dendron.so).

Take everything I write here (well, everywhere) with a grain of salt. That said I'm always happy to talk about anything on here.

The pages definitely don't adhere to [Andy's Evergreen Notes](https://notes.andymatuschak.org/z4SDCZQeRo4xFEQ8H4qrSqd68ucpgE6LU155C) pattern, I hope one day they do.

Feel free to add [a PR or issue to the repo](https://github.com/maxkrieger/inquiry) to discuss any of these in public!
