So, what the hell is 'Context Method'?
A rumor spreads through the Valley: a mysterious thing called Context Method is showing up on second monitors and investor calls. It’s not software, not fast, not even delegable. Just whispers of “productive friction” and Greek words about wisdom. A tech-world mystery told with caffeine, skepticism, and too many theories.
Context Intelligence and the Hermeneutic Workflow Methodology: Building Meaning Infrastructure
Context Intelligence and Knowledge Architecture define how organizations turn reasoning into durable infrastructure. The Hermeneutic Workflow Methodology (HWM) and Context Intelligence Portal (CIP) together form a framework for capturing tacit wisdom, preserving interpretive intent, and countering the context loss that plagues traditional automation.
Context Intelligence Portal (CIP) : Mapping Emerging Knowledge Architectures
A living directory of ideas orbiting the concept of the Context Intelligence Portal (CIP), where context architecture meets interpretation, branding, and organizational reasoning. Each entry connects philosophy, linguistics, and applied knowledge systems in the LLM era. The goal is to map how meaning operates across tools, teams, and contexts, a shared space for those shaping the next generation of understanding infrastructure.
When Deep Understanding Refuses to Be Automated
A counterweight to the rapid, generic, and often shallow output of today’s AI systems, the Hermeneutic Workflow Methodology Movement proposes a slower, interpretive process that keeps the human expert firmly in charge. By drawing on traditions of hermeneutics—reflection, iteration, and dialogue—it argues that inefficiency isn’t a flaw but a feature: the very thing that preserves nuance, depth, and authenticity in human–AI collaboration.
DUBWISE
Vivian Zito, an archivist trained at the University of London and a long-time contributor to Dubwise Review, is known for transforming fragile fragments of underground culture into lasting narratives. Her work blends oral history, archival reconstruction, and cultural analysis, documenting London’s hidden dub and DIY spaces with rigor and empathy. Whether writing about vanished squat venues, pirate stations, or forgotten collectives, Zito insists that underground music deserves the same preservation as any official history—ensuring that memory doesn’t fade into static.
Boston’s Underground Rock: Early ‘80s
Boston’s early ’80s underground wasn’t just punk—it was a deliberate mix of ska, dub, R&B, and mod, shaped by bands who knew their roots. From Mission of Burma’s sonic experiments to SSD’s hardcore urgency and Human Sexual Response’s art-pop provocation, this scene was layered, local, and loud. What follows is a curated list of key players, linked to archival sources and official sites. Not nostalgia—just memory, mapped with precision.
Weary of the social media treadmill?
It feels almost as if a low key cultural revolution is in the air this week. A consensus forming. I offer three examples below -- two discussions and one killer music video --that might reassure you that REALITY is making a comeback in 2024. Maybe it's time to drop out a little.
