Major Objects

by Ryszard Павел Kostecki, 1991–2023


This is a list of major objects/projects (including social constructs) created or co-created by me, ordered chronologically, and containing only things which were released (publicly or privately) in some form. The selection (especially with respect to individual poems and photographic series, both sampled with a heavy coarse-graining) is based on my own perception of the optimal relative negentropy between the personal importance/intimacy and the estimate of an intersubjective long-term value of a given object (which is definitely varying when moving from teenager's poems or programs to professional scientific research), and carries no pretense to global optimality in arbitrary dimensions. Re-masterings and updates of earlier versions of projects/objects (e.g., computer programs) were mentioned only when they contained a major quality change/shift/improvement with respect to the former version. The sign [?] indicates (unfortunately) forgotten names. The text 20 years later provides some some additional context for this list.
