MEME 4.02

In this issue of MEME:

TECHNOREALISM

Over the past few months, I participated in the creation of a set of principles called "technorealism." It's a set of declarations meant to go beyond the bi-polar visions of cyber-utopianism and neo-Luddism. In another age, this would be considered a manifesto.

Now it is an open letter, a document which, through the Internet, takes on a fluid, dynamic form. Literally anyone can sign it, pass it on, and participate. Instructions on how to do this appear at the end of this message. If you like what you read, I urge you to forward it, to friends, colleagues, and other lists where appropriate.

Without further delay, let me introduce you to Technorealism.
