# MATERIALITY AND THE PLEASURE OF CONSTRAINTS
???
-- define "constraint" before talking more about them
- constraint is a fundamental concept in mathematics, biology, mechanics, design, economy, etc
- life and our experience of it is only constraints, constraints root us to the reality (we are constrained by our bodies, cultures, etc)
- constraints are perceived negatively because they are essentially a restriction
-- such a limitation is at odds with capitalist ideologies that constantly sell us freedom from restrictions through new products, enable and fetichize accumulation, and rely on colonial and post-colonial strategies to extract and exploit without restrictions and at the expense of x y z externalities (human and resources)
-- making visible constraints in such context is therefore a threat to the economic reproduction of capitalist ideologies
+- such a limitation is at odds with capitalist ideologies that constantly sell us freedom from restrictions through new products, enable and fetichize accumulation, and rely on colonial and post-colonial strategies to extract and exploit without restrictions and at the expense of the environment, and we include ourself in this definition.

+- making visible constraints in such context is therefore a potential threat to the economic reproduction of capitalist ideologies
- this is mirrored completely in the maximalist techno-aesthetics that magically give the illusion of lifting restrictions from everything
-- with pmc being driven by opposite forces, the challenge and motivation for a pmc aesthetics is therefore to embrace the constraint as a restriction (as well as a facilitator)
+- with permacomputing being driven by opposite forces, the challenge and motivation for permacomputing aesthetics is therefore to embrace the constraint as a restriction as well as a facilitator
- to make visible what has been obfuscated
-- because obviously obfuscation there is
