Edition-127 of Delicacies. As usual, max 5 articles that I found interesting and worth re-reading. Handpicked, no robots. Minimalism in curation. Enjoy!

• About criticool thinking and countercultures (and the illusion of it). Superb essay by Silvio Lorusso: https://medium.com/the-entreprecariat/the-designer-without-qualities-notes-on-ornamental-politics-ironic-attachment-bureaucreativity-40f09a618e2c
• About using tech to build a future centered on our pre-digital values of connection, creativity and respect. A must hear 10 min TED talk by @rushkoff: https://www.ted.com/talks/douglas_rushkoff_how_to_be_team_human_in_the_digital_future
• About Nelly Ben Hayoun Studios and extreme experiences. Awesome video of her talk at Re:Publica and giving me at least a LOT of energy. “Go for it!”  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFnKeevb2d0
• About the evolution of different platforms on a 2 by 2 matrix: centralised/decentralised and for profit/for benefit. Fascinating talk by @mbauwens (no! slides ;-): https://blog.p2pfoundation.net/michel-bauwens-on-technological-sovereignty-in-the-transition-from-a-marxist-capitalism-to-a-proudhonian-capitalism/2018/12/11
• About a critical view by Carlota Perez on policy suggestions made by Brynjolfsson and McAfee in The Second Machine Age: http://beyondthetechrevolution.com/blog/second-machine-age-or-fifth-technological-revolution-part-9-final/
