Hi Jakob, all @Jakob: thanks for the heads-up. Dyer-Witheford's article (freely available from Culture Machine) cites several pieces published in JoPP so I thought people on this list might be interested to check it out. cheers Mathieu ________________________________ From: Jakob Rigi [rigij(a)ceu.hu] Sent: Friday, November 08, 2013 5:56 To: Mathieu ONeil; discussion(a)lists.icts-and-society.net Subject: Red Plenty by Nick Dyer-Witheford Hi All, Just finished the reading the "Red plenty" by Nick Dyer-Witheford. It incites revolutionary aspirations with the most cogent arguments. It is a kind of poetry of reason. Nick summarizing the debate of cyber communism to date, imagines his own version of such a communism, which to my mind is also the most realistic and complex version. best Jakob
