GermanZero HamburgPassend zum heutigen #DigitalIndependenceDay:
Dieser etwas längere, aber dafür inhaltlich umso reichhaltigere Artikel aus #Noema zieht Parallelen von Plantagen, #Massentierhaltung und der autogerechten top-down #Stadtplanung zur monopolistischen Struktur des Internets und schlägt analog zum #Rewilding von Naturgebieten ein Rewilding des Internets vor.
"The story of German scientific forestry transmits a timeless truth: When we simplify complex systems, we destroy them, and the devastating consequences sometimes aren’t obvious until it’s too late. …
Internet infrastructure is a degraded ecosystem, but it’s also a built environment, like a city. Its unpredictability makes it generative, worthwhile and deeply human. In 1961, #JaneJacobs, an American-Canadian activist and author of “The Death and Life of Great American Cities,” argued that mixed-use neighborhoods were safer, happier, more prosperous, and more livable than the sterile, highly controlling designs of urban planners like New York’s #RobertMoses."
"Technologists are great at incremental fixes, but to regenerate entire habitats, we need to learn from ecologists who take a whole-systems view. Ecologists also know how to keep going when others first ignore you and then say it’s too late, how to mobilize and work collectively, and how to build pockets of diversity and resilience that will outlast them, creating possibilities for an abundant future they can imagine but never control. We don’t need to repair the internet’s infrastructure. We need to rewild it."
