Looking for books to read about science and technology? Check out the winners of this year's @nationalbook Science and Literature awards.
Congratulations to @aznfusion @blgtylr @xrw! It was an honor to serve on the selection committee with such an outstanding group.
The @nationalbook & Alfred P. Sloan Foundation announced selected titles for the Science + Literature program! My friend, co-conspirator, and collaborator @xrw received this prestigious award and honor for their extraordinary book, Blockchain Chicken Farm. ๐๐ฅณ๐ CONGRATS!!!
@xrw There's still SO MUCH to write about. For example, Mead and Bateson cybernetic takes on UN, Cold War Policy, Soviet arms race based on interwar colonial anthropology. I write about it in CODE https://t.co/wYlMLALXio & even more threads in work by @oumitoul @paidipaty@rlemov
2023: seriously evaluating my life and how much busy-ness and overextending myself actually causes harm to others via reactivity, lack of mindfulness + thoughtfulness, etc.
literally this tweet popped into my head again while meditating this morning and +1 to east coast/west coast cybernetics comp analysis. would love to read too intersections of postcolonial moment, cybernetics and race thru the east coast/west coast lens.
someone should write an essay explaining US West Coast (Bay Area) vs US East Coast (Cambridge, MA) cybernetics. It's sketched in so much work, e.g, by @richardbarbrook, @fturner, @NoraBateson, @HZeavin (on Lily), but I don't think there's a systematic comparative analysis, yet.
reading across disciplines is fun and revealing and the different terms disciplines use to describe similar things is interestingโฆalso i wanna know why more stem-y disciplines love using soft and hard to distinguish things
