Community
Do you see Facebook as an instrument to encourage
civic engagement?
��� Facebook ����������������
No, I can most definitely say, absolutely not.�
It makes citizens feel as if they have participated.

“I have yet to come up with something practical that lets lazy people
participate in real action.”

1. People in the space belong to the space.
2. All spatial practices are useful rituals, to be filled with subjective content.
3. What is significant and fundamentally important to the community needs to be celebrated in extended festivities.

#NetNeutralityWhen I supported broadcasting on that night,
I wasn’t aware that people were going to climb
over the wall.
But only a neutral Internet can connect people inside and
outside of the wall.
Communication diminishes conflicts and misunderstanding — That was my only intention.
#Transparency
“If we believe in the power of openness and transparency,
we shall wield it to triumph over darkness.”
– Michael Idinopulos, «Telepistemology, Mediation, and the Design of Transparent Interfaces»
And it is this epistemic directness that matters.�When telerobotic engagement is epistemically direct, it gives us uninferred knowledge of a garden thousands of miles away, and with it a desire to tend that garden and see it grow.
But what makes Internet telegardening interesting, and what makes it a cousin of traditional gardening, is that it affords a direct link with a real garden — not, of course a causally direct link, but an epistemically direct link.
