+
+## Description of your talk / panel / workshop / demo
+
+I automate repetitive storytelling, enhance my memory, and generally 
+augment my social interactions through a network of
+[bespoke](https://thomaslevine.com/!/computers/)
+[computer](https://thomaslevine.com/!/whom-to-email/)
+[software](https://github.com/tlevine/dadaportal)
+designed specifically for me.
+I will discuss the various tools that I use and how they
+[transform](https://thomaslevine.com/!/hypermediated-conversation/)
+my communications, and I will conclude with some
+[first](https://thomaslevine.com/!/making-your-personal-website/)
+[steps](https://thomaslevine.com/!/tom-computer-school/#firstday)
+that you can take if you would like to create a similar digital appendage for yourself.
+
+This talk is particularly related to the following of the topics that are
+itemized in the [call for proposals](http://radicalnetworks.org/participate/).
+
+* local networks for community
+* experimental application of computer networks
+* network security for ordinary citizens
+* artistic use of computer networks
+* personal networks
+* experimental social networks
+* control and ownership of networks
+
+## Length of talk / panel / workshop
+
+I could fill 45 minutes, but 15 minutes is already enough time to present something useful.
+How about 45 minutes?

+## Speaker Bio
+
+Thomas Levine is a dada artist who really likes to sleep.
+His interests in dada and sleep are
+largely a rebellion against his upbringing in America
+that involved many elements of the
+[Protestant work ethic](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protestant_work_ethic).
+When he isn't sleeping, he often develops experimental lifestyles and
+life-automation software in an effort to give himself more time to sleep.
