This bonus content is a reading from Platypus, the CASTAC Blog. The full post by Martina Di Tullio can be read at https://blog.castac.org/2025/10/the-ones-who-walk-away-from-the-internet/. About the post: In the Andean cosmovision, constellations are not formed by connecting the dots of stars, but rather from the spaces of darkness in the night sky. The most important one is the Yakana, shaped like a llama —the most essential animal for life in the Andes. What might be seen as void, then, can reveal as much as, or even more than, the brightest star. This brief text reflects on the relevance of attending to those spaces, moments, and situations that remain undigitized in order to understand the social role of digital technologies and how they shape our lives. Much like the dark voids that give form to Andean constellations, these intervals can illuminate dimensions of existence that are otherwise overshadowed by the glow of the screens.
