I think it might work to have an interview series ... "TW to TW"

[@TiddlyTweeter]

One has the stupid idea of one interviewing about the formation of the thing from the inside. One idea against has been the great danger that one could overlook the moment recently.  But I sat down with that and felt it was too expensive to think that way.

One can roughly advance the idea that some here may have a lot to say that could be helpful IF expanded further.

I like the idea a TW can talk to a TW about what a TW is.

Could be interesting.

I'm curious, in a pleasantly confused way....

can you expand?

I'm not fully sure myself what I meant.

I do sense an emerging trend with TW that is getting closer to "practical sharing". Though the idea of "sharing" TW (multi-user potential) per se interests me less than the lure of  "exploratory conversation" in TW--i.e. not just Q & A. Rather conversation with lateral branching too.

A major weakness of many discussion systems that exist now on the web is that the medium over-shapes the message (standard threading, for instance). But human communication is simultaneously branching and mutli-lateral when its allowed to be. But one needs a "form" to assert it, show its excellence and help it fruit.

Something like that.

I forgot to mention that the "TW to TW" idea is broadly inspired by the old BBC interview series "Face to Face" that was extremely insightful. For instance the interview with Carl Jung ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AMu-G51yTY.  But good interviews also, of course, happened after. But there was a shift, generally, to "presentation of self" rather than "discussion of self", such that understanding the Other got more problematic. We need better forms to eschew that too easy. TW MIGHT be part of that.

Slightly on the far side

You shouldn't anthropomorphize things. They hate it when you do that.

Reminiscent of the Mr. Bean goes to the dentist episode.

The "Head First" series of books will have inanimate objects interviewing inanimate objects. So, it has been done.

Bean's dental encounter was more about "Re-making The Self": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60NSM_EHmuw

I knew there had to be some deep inner meaning.

I just thought it was just Buster Keaton on a budget.
