Bog-a-thon 3

We traveled nearly 3,000 miles to bring Bog to what some say is the center of the technology world. Bog, meet San Francisco!

We spent August 10–16 meeting old and new friends, developers, fans, and many others. We traveled with a small caravan of friends from New York, including:

  • Shea, who held an album release listening party at our Airbnb we dubbed ‘Bog House’.
  • Niko, who has attended every Bog-a-thon to date. We deeply appreciate his dedication to our cause and thank him for all his contributions.
  • Lucy, who held the first-ever World Computer Consortium meetup, with us and River Computer and other friendlies in attendance.

While developers in New York had crafted games and applications around Bog, San Franciscan developers notably used Bog’s components to build software that reflected the zeitgeist: memory systems, harness extensions, context-management scaffolding, and more.

Bog-a-thon 3’s various submissions:

  • RAVEN: A fold-powered visual novel engine with rewind and saved state
  • Soundings: A live embedding-lens writing instrument
  • Rollcall: Incremental identity resolution for knowing who to @ in LinkedIn posts
  • Sundew: A retractable agent-context briefing built on Fold
  • peat: Massive codebase context/memory management using fold
  • Bogbound: A multiplayer PvE bullet hell RPG powered by BogKit
  • sod: Symmetric replication for Fold applications
  • figmog: A Fold-backed local mirror of a Figma file. Now live here!
  • Tinymo: A seven-move wireless robot challenge showcasing Fold-powered reversible control, rewinding the device back to its starting position
  • ContextFlywheel: Versioned working memory for autonomous agents

There are no additional Bog-a-thons scheduled for the comings weeks, but we’re in active talks with a few organizations to co-host events in the near future. Stay in touch or follow us at @flowercomputers on X to learn about future events.
