I'll be presenting at the inaugural DesAIgn conference at the end of the month, making the case for increased machinic agency in architectural design.

Did the NFL intend to offset the first Super Bowl with female coaches and referees with the first halftime show without women?

Few did more to intellectualize environmentalism than Paul Crutzen. https://t.co/o6UGUGn0TT

@bgoldst Agreed. I'm exhausted, I feel like I spent four years watching a Joe Pesci character who thought he could do the jedi mind trick.

@bgoldst Statues? I thought they were going to be animatronic robots like the Hall of Presidents.

@ParametricMnky @JacobWSmall It totally can. You can't rotate tho.

@bgoldst Wha? I thought I was the only one who wouldn't stop telling you how great ABQ is. I need to get out more. Wait.

@NGirrard Real question: are you serious?

[Alex Webb @aw_4]

@NGirrard I don't see how anyone could look at those 6 examples and still be against social distancing, contact tracing, phone tracing, and biodata monitoring. Those are all examples of far stronger govt regulation than the US- except for SE, which is doing worse than us per capita.

[Alex Webb @aw_4]

@NGirrard Why single out one country? Because the article you shared did. "This article is about Switzerland and it does not suggest that the situation is exactly the same globally." Why not learn the lessons from that example more fully instead of cherry picking convenient narratives?

[Alex Webb @aw_4]

@NGirrard @larrybehrens Once an academic, always in the ivory tower. Sigh. That link is super interesting, but consider this piece- it suggests that the tools in question actually worked and is less speculative. https://t.co/Q4dsgMeMWz

@NGirrard @larrybehrens Fed = not dem & has impact on NM. I would argue that's bipartisan.

[Alex Webb @aw_4]

@NGirrard @larrybehrens However, the point of my initial post was to describe how we make decisions based off of fear every day. Our entire legal system is, effectively, fear-based.Arguing that the bipartisan response to a deadly virus is both fear-based and dem to me, feels imprecise and misleading.

[Alex Webb @aw_4]

@NGirrard @larrybehrens FWIW, I have been saying since March that this crisis would pressure america's individualistic culture. Though I don't share your concerns, I am very much aware that the solutions other nations deploy won't sync culturally with much of the US.
