The Passage of a Few People Through a Rather Brief Moment in Time #109: Coefficient of Fruction

08.3.11

One or more persons during a certain period drop their usual motives for movement and action, their relations, their work and leisure activities, and let themselves be drawn by the attractions of the terrain and the encounters they find there.

It's a bike ride.

Started by user nathansnider and user theroyalacademy.

It meets every Wednesday at 8:30pm at California Donuts #21.
We ride at 9pm.
We'll endeavor to return before the last red line trains (around midnight).
See how we move.

On the third year of this bike ride, you might expect:
- more inconvenient passageways
- more full moon picnics
- perhaps more "cover" versions of other people's rides, performed with amateurish enthusiasm
- certainly more amateurish enthusiasm
- disorientation
- reorientation
- pool halls
- bowling alleys
- dance parties
- karaoke
- imaginary histories
- scavenging for fun and sustenance
- more geocaching
- more oblique strategies
- more Oulipian constraints
- traffic median tea parties

Furthermore:
- A medium pace (maybe not for beginners; certainly not a hustle)
- We're not in a rush; we don't need to run every light.
- Victory donuts!

This week:

Coefficient of Fruction



One may say that in life, just as in games, there are two general approaches that reliably lead to success. The first is a deep understanding the rules (natural laws, social conventions and what have you), and the second is extensive knowledge of the field of play (the game board, the lay of the land, etc.).

These are not mutually exclusive, of course, but they are unquestionably different, the former relying on extended deliberation and judicious application of technical knowledge, the latter relying on sheer persistence and sturdy shoes.

It's a bit like the tension between between theoretical and experimental scientific disciplines. While we very much admire the theoreticians, this week is an experment, in which we measure the properties of the landscape. How, you ask? Well, by picking fruits and then eating them, of course.

Expect a rather short distance, a few small hills and an unusual amount of stopping...

Talk, talk, talk...
