Recently published as part of a post on my blog entitled Temporal Fragments, which can be found at cosmicfuz.com. See https://cosmicfuz.com/unfinished/ for this specific post.

Instead of using social media primarily, my photos are being presented on my own website. Visitors are able to view a series of images, along with some text, as an attempt at storytelling.

Have you been seeking a way to present your work outside of the main tech platforms? Would be great to learn about your experience.

Zur Einstimmung auf den #FensterFreitag gibt's noch einen Nachschlag aus dem #Handelshafen in #Magdeburg. Er wurde 1893 eröffnet und war der größte Umschlagunternehmen an der Mittelelbe. Heute ist er Freiluftmuseum, Veranstaltungsgelände und Denkfabrik. Einige der riesigen #Speicher werden gerade zu Wohnhäusern umgebaut (dieses hier aber nicht). // To ease into that #WindowFriday feeling, here's another submission. This #building is part of the Handelshafen, "commerce port" in Magdeburg. It was opened in 1893 as the largest cargo handling business in the Middle Elbe region. Today, the area is part museum, part venue, and part business location. Some of the tall #warehouses are being turned into apartment buildings (not this one though).

Amazon has used tricks, algorithms, and #surveillance to discourage warehouse employees from #unionizing
"Weaponizing the Workplace: How Algorithmic Management Shaped Amazon's Antiunion Campaign in Bessemer, Alabama," was conducted by Teke Wiggin, a researcher at Northwestern University in the US. It's worth reading the full write-up if you have time; we'll summarize some of it here:

The Register · Amazon accused of using algorithms to push warehouse workers to breaking pointBy Thomas Claburn

A former grain warehouse on James Watt Street central Glasgow. Built in 1855, it was constructed for Harvie and McGrath who also operated the nearby Anderston Grain Mill. It's proximity to the Broomielaw meant this area of the city would once have been dominated by similar grand warehouses, but most have been demolished and replaced with modern buildings.
