I'm thrilled to announce that the
CALIFORNIAN IDEOLOGY
special issue I've been working on is now out: ijoc.org/index.php/ijoc
It includes an interview I did with the incomparable Richard Barbrook, which went much like that drink I had with him years ago.

Sacred Stacks of @MEDLabBoulder describes the #magic of technology and how tech-companies seek to reduce friction (that extra click), and instead invites us to increase the technological friction to make us slow down and realize the communal and sacred. doi.org/10.21428/6ffd8432.41…
ALT Teal topographical background with quote: "What if, in contrast to the product-builders, we treat friction as a teacher? If an app takes time and support to learn, that friction is an opportunity for in-person mentoring sessions that can bring a community closer."
