Hi MANIK
you make good points.
I agree that we probably share an urgent and heartfelt sense of need for
fundamental Global Change.
This competition has just been announced. Asking people to write a
paragraph reversing the Panopticon effect of the Internet of Things to
envision the City of Trust in the freedom society.
http://www.theinternetofthings.eu/content/new-years-contest-panopticon-metaphor-internet-things-%E2%80%93-why-not-if-it-were-opposite
" What could be the metaphor of a free society where individuals are
endowed with the capability to exploit their talents and realise their
dreams, where social groups stand together, and where organisations
adopt an ethical conduct? If we accept that Panopticon can be the
metaphor for the surveillance society, the City of Control, the human
enslaved by his objects, what could be the opposite concept for the
freedom society, the City of Trust, the empowered individual?"
I think it's an excellent question.
Answers anyone?
cheers
Ruth

I was about to nominate Rob (and his links series) for this
year's Year Round Father Christmas of Netbehaviour- a combo of
timely, informative and pleasurable resources- each collection
hangs together with mysterious and joyous coherence.
Then I thought of all the other sparkly wonders that have dropped
into my inbox from all you others NBers
These are some of the things I have particularly loved in NB this
year
* invitations to live networked performances: music,
cyberformance, collaborative (bodily and avatar) performance
* collaborations and streams of drawings, paintings, videos,
sound: everyday, visceral, playful, strange,
brain-shape-shifting, machinic
* steady attention and inventive responses to the many
upheavals in the wider world
* people new to NB finding wayz to introduce themselves, their
practices and join the conversation
* tributes and memorials to the passing of many fine, strange
and imaginative people
* torrents of (sometimes unprocessable) practice and theory
springing up and washing all over the place
* all the conversations: thoughtful, grouchy, bitter, funny,
informed, informing, theoretical, flippant, just-plain-wrong,
brutal, embarrassing and illuminating.
Thanks and warm festive fuzzies to you all.
Ruth
