• started programming at nine
  • silicon jungle: a play on [[concrete jungle]] at the time of the internet
• video game developer for years
  • indie vs mobile was the fork in the road
  • did [[indie]]
• left the industry, did [[crypto]] for a while
• worked on a [[marketplace]] for the last year, gave notice one month ago
• into social media and interoperability now
  • [[interoperable social space]]
  • permission model like a Drive
  • UI like a [[facebook group]]
  • but can be seen as a container of resources
• [[agora]]
  • [[agora server]]
  • [[agora bridge]]
  • [[moa]]
• do you know...?
  • [[fission]]
    • [[prosperity license]]
  • [[moa]]
• [[humane technology australia]]
• a future we want to live in:
  • one that tries to align how we are as humans and technology
  • more solarpunk than cyberpunk
• [[flancia]] started as a utopia, but
  • "my utopia is your dystopia"
  • precisely
• tribes -> countries -> globalization
  • [[the expanding circle]]
  • individuals have ammassed too much power due to [[anti disintermediation]]
    • [[counter anti disintermediation]]
  • [[interoperability]] seems key
• [[moderators]] or a [[democractic approach]]?
  • [[liquid democracy]]/[[heterarchies]] in moderation?
• venues to [[interoperability]]
  • [[adversarial interoperability]]
    • [[eff]]
  • [[bridges]]
  • [[siphons]]
  • [[rising tide]]
• [[braid]]
  • [[redwood]]
• core mvp of what James is trying to build:
  • going to look a lot like a facebook group, a feed of posts
    • do you know of [[ctzn]] / [[hypercore]]?
  • tied to that, a [[resource hub]] which lets it interop with a bunch of services. each community chooses which services it hooks up with
    • group membership propragates to other services as possible
• I think we're probably both trying to build an [[interlay]]?
• the working name for James's project is [[spaces]] but that probably won't work
