I think we need to… take care. We need to automate the jobs that no one likes. We should take care of the ones people do like doing, because if we do manage to build an abundance-based economy (hey, you never know) then people are going to need something to do.

An ode to Cognitive Surplus.

A celebration of the inventive backwaters of the human spirit... a celebration of people who would appear to have far too much time on their hands...


A celebration of laterality.


If you come they will build it.


By knowledge shall the spheres be filled.
