You Have To Be Somebody Before You

It Is Impossible To Work In Information Technology Without Also Engaging In Social Engineering.

The Attribution Of Intelligence To Machines, Crowds Of Fragments, Or Other Nerd Deities Obscures More Than It Illuminates. When People Are Told That A Computer Is Intelligent, They Become Prone To Changing Themselves In Order To Make The Computer Appear To Work Better, Instead Of Demanding That The Computer Be Changed To Become More Useful.

What Does It Mean To Not Be Alone? I've Approached That Question Through Music, Technology, Writing And Other Means.

Every Time We Give A Musician The Advice To Give Away The Music And Sell The T-shirt, We're Saying, "don't Make Your Living In This More Elevated Way. Instead, Reverse This Social Progress, And Choose A More Physical Way To Make A Living." We're Sending Them To Peasanthood, Very Much Like The Maoists Have.

Information Is Alienated Experience.
