Never Post

Stephen Carlsen died in 2025. His family knew vaguely that he had worked on creating the file format TIFF, but it was his nephew, Nathan Carlsen, who kicked off a quest for the full story. This week, senior producer Hans Buetow talks with Nathan about his oral history project to document his uncle’s work, and we hear a fascinating conversation that Nathan had with Donovan Cameron, a First Nation GIS specialist who uses the TIFF in unexpected ways.

It comes like this.
With tiny fingers screeching along the sidewalk screeching
screeching waiting
more than waiting.
It comes like this.
Writing a spasmotic gait of a
too quick operation speech
like the broke spoke of
wheels of things of
machine crossed human crossed with
machine metal grinding
grinding too
fast for its own function
It comes like this

Your nakedness and terror

Your sanctity remains
the crucial battle

Dearly beyond
We are scattered here today

amongst commodities

This town isn’t big enough

These newfangled ghosts haunt by telephone and airwave. Acumen will finally languish in a good sense: type would bottle a new motto in live numbers and wine were they only not printers with so many thoughts to slip in media res or the thick of things at grasp root level up a slope on themselves. Our notion of productive labor becomes narrowed to the use of censure and science to ensure I am baffled as Yeats by those voices that still speak to Oddysseus but as the bats.
