\"progress\"<\/p>\n

I’m continuing to work at my audio version of Catalyst: A Techno-Liberation Thesis<\/em> (2013)<\/a>. Everything will progress and it should be completed soon.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’ve also got a copy of Center for a Stateless Society’s (C4SS) Kevin Carson’s book The Homebrew Industrial Revolution<\/a><\/em>. Although I am not under any illusions that my very basic and amateurish booklet (inspired by the transhumanists, futurists and others I have dealt with) could compete with a text of such high value as Carson’s, I hope that at least some of my own radical ideas about equality and technology<\/a> find a bit of validation in Carson’s work. Both books discuss quite similar themes and have similar influences, and it would be interesting to look at this.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, for apparent\u00a0technical reasons and my own exhaustion, I must refrain from writing this post to any great\u00a0length. Hopefully, my next post will be more rewarding.<\/p>\n
