A world of deep fakes, mimicry loops and worsening inequality is not an inevitability. It\u2019s a set of policy choices.” #ai<\/a> #llm<\/a> https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/commentisfree\/2023\/may\/08\/ai-machines-hallucinating-naomi-klein<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only a comprehensive reconfiguration of property rights over the increasingly cloud-based instruments of production, distribution, collaboration, and communication can rescue the foundational liberal idea of liberty as self-ownership. https:\/\/www.yanisvaroufakis.eu\/2023\/06\/01\/the-strange-death-of-the-liberal-individual-project-syndicate-op-ed\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sound & Music<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“Perhaps more than anything else, ambient country reflects the loneliness of America\u2019s sprawling hinterlands. With no fences or neighbors comes freedom, but also pangs of desolation. Lassoing the ardor of post-rock, the zeal of experimental music, and the lyrical introspection of Americana, it\u2019s the sound of the human vacuum that exists between heaven and ground, the liminal spaces untouched by boot heels and mile markers.” https:\/\/daily.bandcamp.com\/lists\/ambient-country-list<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

#sunra<\/a> was an experimental artist in the truest sense of the term. Unlike many others who adopt that name\u2014posers who take few genuine chances despite all their posturing\u2014Sun Ra actually conducted real-time experiments in the recording studio. If his laboratory blew up, it was okay. He would be moving on to something else, no matter what. https:\/\/tedgioia.substack.com\/p\/the-hit-singles-of-sun-ra<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>1. pit religious, racial, and economic groups against one another to break down national unity.
2. In place of international cooperation, seek to substitute a perverted sort of ultra-nationalism which tells their people that they are the only people in the world who count.
3. the world has but two choices\u2014either fascism or communism, and they label as \u2018communists\u2019 everyone who refuses to support them. #facism<\/a> #politics<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
