Twenty-five years after the premiere of “MTV Cribs,” the ostentatious lifestyles it spotlighted feel quaint. @kimhewlow examines the show’s influence on a now-pervasive genre—the house tour: https://t.co/uVtN5WovFo

I wrote about the possibilities and pitfalls of controlling life in a gamified world, vis-à-vis The Sims, for @NYTmag 📊

https://t.co/vzYkMQotOH

[Elena Saavedra Buckley @elenasb_]

Really sharp essay by @kimhewlow about the swell of people yearning for older, more chaotic versions of The Sims, and how the trend overlaps with life itself becoming not only more gamified, but less filled with possibility.

.@kimhewlow writes on the “comedy of green-card marriage,” a genre that enforces traditional power relations and exposes the fundamental conservatism of institutional marriage.

[Notebook @mubinotebook]

"What makes technologies like VIKI, Ava, and M3GAN terrifying isn’t their uniquely human intelligence but rather, their mechanical fixation on a singular goal—which, in reality, is always defined by corporate profit. We should shift our attention, then, away from the deceptive character of a single technology, and toward the manipulative behavior of the corporations that wield artificial intelligence for their own interests. The most instructive media seeks to expose what is obscured when we anthropomorphize this technology..."⁠
