Really, it is. The NSA clearly violates all kinds of elementary principles of constitutional design. The NSA is the very antithesis of transparency, and accountability, and free elections, and free expression, and separation of powers ― in other words, the NSA is a kind of giant, grown-up, anti-Wikileaks. And it always has been. And we’re used to that. We pay no mind. Well, dear readers, nowadays we do pay that some mind. Yes, that was then, while this is now. So, I no longer feel that leaden discontent and those grave misgivings that I felt in 2010. The situation now is frankly exhilarating. It no longer has that look-and-feel of the Edgar Allen Poe House of Usher. This scene is straight outta Nikolai Gogol. This is the kind of comedic situation that Russians find hilarious. I mean, sure it’s plenty bad and all that, PRISM, XKeyScore, show trials, surveillance, threats to what’s left of journalism, sure, I get all that, I’m properly concerned. None of that stops it from being hilarious. Few geopolitical situations can ever give the Russians a full, free, rib-busting belly laugh. This one sure does. If Snowden had gotten things his own way, he’d be writing earnest op-ed editorials in Hong Kong now, in English, while dining on Kung Pao Chicken. It’s some darkly modern act of crooked fate that has directed Edward Snowden to Moscow, arriving there as the NSA’s Solzhenitsyn, the up-tempo, digital version of a conscience-driven dissident defector. But Snowden sure is a dissident defector, and boy is he ever. Americans don’t even know how to think about characters like Snowden — the American Great and the Good are blundering around on the public stage like blacked-out drunks, blithering self-contradictory rubbish. It’s all “gosh he’s such a liar” and “give us back our sinister felon,” all while trying to swat down the jets of South American presidents. These thumb-fingered acts of totalitarian comedy are entirely familiar to anybody who has read Russian literature. The pigs in Orwell’s “Animal Farm” have more suavity than the US government is demonstrating now. Their credibility is below zero. The Russians, by contrast, know all about dissidents like Snowden. The Russians have always had lots of Snowdens, heaps. They know that Snowden is one of these high-minded, conscience-stricken, act-on-principle characters who is a total pain in the ass. Modern Russia is run entirely by spies. It’s class rule by the “siloviki,” it’s Putin’s “managed democracy.” That’s the end game for civil society when elections mean little or nothing, and intelligence services own the media, and also the oil. And that’s groovy, sure, it’s working out for them. When you’re a professional spy hierarch, there are few things more annoying than these conscience-stricken Winston Smith characters, moodily scribbling in their notebooks, all about how there might be hope found in the proles somehow. They’re a drag." … "But Snowden sure is a dissident defector, and boy is he ever.

Why should a new aesthetic [be] interested only in the relationship between humans and computers, when so many other relationships exist just as much? Why stop with the computer, like Marinetti foolishly did with the race car?
Being withdraws from access. There is always something left in reserve, in a thing.

Well…every once in a while, a situation that’s one-in-a-thousand is met by a guy who is one in a million. It may be that Assange is, somehow, up to this situation. Maybe he’s gonna grow in stature by the massive trouble he has caused. Saints, martyrs, dissidents & freaks are always wild-cards, but sometimes they’re the only ones who can clear the general air. Sometimes they become the catalyst for historical events that somehow had to happen. They don’t have to be nice guys; that’s not the point. Julian Assange did this; he direly wanted it to happen. He planned it in nitpicky, obsessive detail. Here it is; a planetary hack.

I don’t have a lot of cheery hope to offer about his all-too-compelling gesture, but I dare to hope he’s everything he thinks he is, & much, much, more.]]> wikileaks politics culture hacking privacy brucesterling 2010 julianassange change https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:9a00c58d2d42/ Flipboard | Beyond The Beyond 2010-11-02T03:55:05+00:00 http://www.wired.com/beyond_the_beyond/2010/10/flipboard/ robertogreco brucesterling darkeuphoria ipad flipboard magazines sociality socialnetworks aspirationalnetworks reading https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:ed47c049be23/ Bruce Sterling: The Complete Interview « 40kBooks 2010-10-18T06:28:32+00:00 http://www.40kbooks.com/?p=1769 robertogreco scifi writing brucesterling search spimes technology sciencefiction texas travel culture interviews research understanding https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:220effb2c59f/ Doors of Perception 7 on Flow: The design challenge of pervasive computing 2010-08-11T22:21:41+00:00 http://flow.doorsofperception.com/content/ robertogreco 2002 markoahtisaari massimobanzi joshuadavis nataliejeremijenko eziomazini brucesterling johnthackara philiptabor pervasivecomputing ubicomp pervasive flow urbancomputing urban sensors sctuators design https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:1f87e2b7b4d1/ designfiction :: NuVu studio 2010-08-02T02:06:12+00:00 http://nuvustudio.org/fall-2010/designfiction/ robertogreco designfiction education future learning design julianbleecker mit writing classideas nearfuture brucesterling scifi sciencefiction science newmedia multimedia objects fiction designfictionstudio nuvustudio nuvu https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:0343ccc2d0c1/ The Viridian Design Movement 2010-07-25T17:16:26+00:00 http://www.viridiandesign.org/2008/11/last-viridian-note.html robertogreco future futurism brucesterling consumerism culture design environment simplicity sustainability happiness life lifestyle technology green advice 2008 slow stuff qualityoverquantity philosophy things viridian viridiannote viridianmovement https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:148d8371d160/ Why Robin Sloan is the Future of Publishing (and Science Fiction) | Wet Asphalt [Gets right to the heart of (a) why I love Robin's brand of science fiction; and (b) how the content is also related to the process of its creation.] 2010-06-20T21:29:03+00:00 http://www.wetasphalt.com/content/why-robin-sloan-future-publishing-and-science-fiction robertogreco robinsloan sciencefiction scifi writing publishing social socialmedia kickstarter via:robinsloan future present quantumcomputing corydoctorow singularity williamgibson brucesterling vernorvinge singularitarianism https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:8e2fccbf3d08/ this is a456: Story of an Eye (and Another Eye, and Yet Another Eye) 2010-03-29T01:09:05+00:00 http://www.aggregat456.com/2010/03/story-of-eye-and-another-eye-and-yet.html robertogreco atemporality design history representation vision brucesterling reynerbanham herbertbayer albrechtdürer leonbattistaalberti https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:8725c25a1bcf/
