Hype for the Future 52J: The Prom Experience of novaTopFlex, Research Continued

Reality Check

Unfortunately, the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art may not represent the first nor the most important track for identifying the art community accurately and appropriately. Of all the museum institutions across the nation, Mass MoCA is perhaps the most significant of the institutions specifically because the campus is the largest contemporary art museum campus by area in the entire United States. Perhaps because of the grandiose nature of the contemporary art museum, any submissions for art to the facility will likely be high-stakes and may be delayed until a time when novaTopFlex has access to the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art as an artist in residency.

Additional Possibilities

Apart from the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, a few other possibilities are being researched and considered, including, but not limited to, the following contexts:

• The Clark Art Institute in nearby Williamstown can be relatively generous with donations of art of different forms, including, but not limited to, the visual arts often prioritized by the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art.
• Art Omi is an art center located in the nearby hamlet of Omi, located within the Columbia County Town of Ghent. East of the Hudson River, the Art Omi institution is actually somewhat closer to Albany and marginally closer to New York City, though also somewhat more distant from Boston, the third target location.
• The Wassaic Project is located further south in Wassaic, New York, and may be more accessible to residents from the surrounding area east into Connecticut. However, the Wassaic Project should not necessarily be relied upon as not much information is readily available on the facility, other than that lots of wooden steps are involved with traffic at the venue.

Hype for the Future 52I: The Prom Experience of novaTopFlex

Preamble

The Prom Experience of novaTopFlex shall refer to the exhibit at the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (Mass MoCA) associated with the prom experience well removed from the true prom experience. Located in North Adams, Massachusetts, novaTopFlex shall prioritize the communities associated with New England, eastern New York, eastern Pennsylvania, and the northern half of New Jersey when targeting an audience for the prom exhibit.

Reason for Request

The Prom Experience of novaTopFlex shall be represented at the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art specifically to identify the numerous cliffs, fears, forms of judgment, and other types of issues in a specific effort to educate the community about particular fears about non-normative experiences at social events, particularly at the events as high-stakes as prom.

Fear of Judgment

Fear of judgment is a common theme of the experience that should be represented for public view at the Prom Experience of novaTopFlex. The Prom Experience of novaTopFlex is specifically identified as an indeterminate experience regarding the fear of miscommunication and misinterpretation while also focusing on a more common pattern appropriate to future notice.

Fear of “Asking Day”

novaTopFlex fears the culture of the “Asking Day” because of the traditional interpretations of such an event, largely referring to the inevitable value of exclusivity to be identified and mentioned. The intrinsic value of the “Asking Day” culture is inherently heteronormative, and the prom culture enforces traditional rituals that continue on into banquet life and, subsequently, even into corporate life. While novaTopFlex often detests corporate life in particular, the true nature of novaTopFlex is significantly more diverse.

Contact Assistance

Since the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (Mass MoCA) is a fairly prestigious institution associated with contemporary art, novaTopFlex must contact the museum in advance and, hopefully, the art installations in North Adams in the northern Berkshires can relate to a sense of self and identity and resemble realistic models of the true Prom Experience of novaTopFlex.

Hype for the Future 52H: The Prom Experience

Preamble

After researching the Berkshire venue of the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art in North Adams, novaTopFlex has asked the venue about how best to support an art exhibit specifically dedicated to the prom experience of novaTopFlex. The exhibit shall include all the personal feelings as well as all the fears of judgment at the promenade, including, though not limited to, the obvious fears that result from violating tradition in a traditionally-coded event such as the promenade.

Location

The Prom Experience of novaTopFlex shall be an exhibit located at the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art under ideal circumstances. The Porches Inn at Mass MoCA is an important place to stay while effectively remaining on campus overnight. Of all the contemporary arts venues in the United States, the location in North Adams is the largest such location by count of population. Though North Adams serves the role of the smallest city in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, novaTopFlex is specifically targeting a designated area essentially centered around North Adams while also expanding throughout all of New England, as well as throughout the eastern side of the Mid-Atlantic region, particularly regions such as the Hudson Valley, the Susquehanna Valley, and the northern half of the State of New Jersey.

Attendance Zone (Catchment Area)

Technically, as a contemporary art museum, there is no geographically designated district nor attendance zone. However, the catchment area that novaTopFlex is attempting to focus energy on generally correlates with the eastern side of New York, the northern half of New Jersey, and the eastern side of Pennsylvania.

Catchment Area for the novaTop Prom Exhibit; the black plus is at the approximate location of the Mass MoCA.

Hype for the Future 52F: Behind the Scenes, YouTube Edition

Preamble

The WordPress site for novaTopFlex is intended to be more than just a blog for the Three Identities–the site also supplements the YouTube channel as well as the Fediverse community and more social circles, groups, and communities. Since the blog intends to supplement the remainder of the digital presence of novaTopFlex, a “Behind the Scenes” style of post is absolutely essential to the integration of the common good in society. Though the ultimate relationship of the posts to one another may not occur in a properly chronological order, the sequence of the posts may influence the sequence of the following posts.

Default Setup

Hype for the Future 52F: Behind the Scenes, YouTube Edition

By default, the novaTop experience on WordPress shall consist of five (5) distinct virtual network computing (VNC) sessions for videos and video contents created using OBS Studio. Each of the five displays should receive a unique color scheme for the display server, using the following lines of code:

DISPLAY=:1 xsetroot -solid LightSlateBlue

DISPLAY=:2 xsetroot -solid LightSlateGray

DISPLAY=:3 xsetroot -solid DarkSlateBlue

DISPLAY=:4 xsetroot -solid DarkSlateGray

DISPLAY=:5 xsetroot -solid RoyalBlue

The fifth display shall also be set to a different window manager or desktop environment, often Openbox, while Joe’s Window Manager shall be preferred for the first, second, third, and fourth displays using Virtual Network Computing (VNC).

Hype for the Future 52E: 2025 in Review…

The Stowe Mountain Resort

The Stowe Mountain Resort on August 31, 2025, was largely determined by nice weather conditions typical of the time toward the end of the summer season. Though the Green Mountain Inn is the prestigious resort within the former village area of Stowe, the northwestern part of the town area associated with Stowe and Lamoille County has largely been associated with the cultural heritage of ski slopes and ski resorts, even in the off-season.

Lebanon, Ohio

Located in the downtown area of Lebanon, Ohio, in the middle of the month of October far from the early-August Blues Festival and the early-December Horse Drawn Carriage Parade and Christmas Festival times, was the Harmon Museum, as well as numerous shops, restaurants, and other amenities of local interest in the historic community.

Preamble

The novaTopFlex Request For Comments System shall be utilized to refer to the public service posts that are not relevant to urgency nor a perceived nor genuine sense of danger in society. Requests for Comments by novaTopFlex are typically scheduled posts about the Three Identities, often referring to a combination of influences from novaTopFlex, geoTopFlex, and futoTopFlex.

WordPress

With WordPress, novaTopFlex can insert different types of content and relevant materials onto the same overall system. Even though most posts are text-only, photos and videos are also possibilities on different sites on WordPress.com, WordPress.org, and numerous other platforms, as follows:

Images are compatible with WordPress in full size, though gallery options are also fully supported. Though galleries and carousels are typically distinct categories on the WordPress system, either of the types of material can represent similar features for the Three Identities. Audio is typically supported on WordPress at higher pricing tiers, along with video by way of VideoPress. Images can also be compared to one another, and slideshows are also a possibility while a story form is also available. Galleries need not be standardized, as tiled galleries are also supported.

Repeat Visitors

The following content shall only be accessible to second-time and later visitors of this post.
