# Progressive Summary Surprisingly poliitical. Using technology as a lens to explore ways of being that are co-operative, mutualistic, non-anthropocentric. Interesting exploration of different computer languages that depart from the hegemonic use of English. Computers that are based on water, slime moulds, ecosystems. Analog over digital - reminiscent of Steven Nachmanovitch's idea (Art of Is) that analog is actually in contact with the world and is lossless Argues for an ecological computing that has 3 features - non-binary, decentralised and unknowing. The theme is that these will lead us away from a domination paradigm. Talks about the influence of cybernetics on politics. But he missed out on Sociocracy. The value of randomness. Improv. Monte Carlo approaches. (Makes me think of Sociocracy - good enough for now, and then adjust based on feedback. Less planning and control.) # Rough Notes # Structured Notes # Quotes
