+[[Gordon Brander]]’s long running “personal lab notebook”.

+> I’m interested in software ecosystems that are organic, open-ended, and evolving.
+> 
+> The internet is like this, and so is the web. My question is, [how can we make more software like this](https://subconscious.substack.com/p/weblike-things)? Squishy Computer is my personal lab notebook for exploring this question.
+> 
+> I like to look at living software ecosystems through the lenses of evolution and ecology. Every so often, I publish a newsletter containing project updates, ideas, design patterns, and snippets of books and papers.
