Nuggets from Inventing New Nature

a few ideas from the article that made me think of clearzilla & DFOS:

New Nature is regimes of reality governed by technologically mediated laws that are nearly as inviolable, immutable, and persistent as those of nature.

Contexting is about new ideas seeking their compile targets, and the new ways of being human they might enable. Contexting is about a thing getting introduced to the world it is going to live in.

Enter the Special Interest Group, or SIG, designed to contain new thinking for long enough for it to decide what kind of shape it wants to take as it makes its debut into the world at large. Particular projects or workstreams may unfold within the context of a SIG, but the SIG itself isn’t a project or workstream. It is a manner of paying collective attention to a theme.
