• Reading: [[Less is More]]

  • Really good opening on all the current environmental crises currently occurring as part of the [[Anthropocene]] (or more accurately the [[Capitalocene]]).
  • And a great history of [[Capitalism]]. Arguing that [[commoning]] was what brought an end to [[Feudalism]], and that capitalism, the [[Enclosure Movement]] and [[colonialism]] was the response.

• Listening: [[Trip 30: Gifts]]

  • Was listening while doing chores. Enjoyed the [[Marxian analysis of Christmas]] and Santa Claus.

• Listening: [[Benjamin Bratton on Synthetic Catallaxies, Platforms of Platforms & Red Futurism]]

  • Very interesting interview with [[Benjamin Bratton]]. Talking about [[socialist calculation debate]], [[cybernetics]]. This idea of [[Synthetic catallaxy]].

• Listening (a while ago): [[42. TECH FOR GOOD]]
