An irregular, unpredictable, incoherent, unfocused set of mind-sparks that got me thinking. Irregular it is: just one week since the previous edition, but this week was, well… special. Handpicked, no robots. Minimalism in curation. Enjoy!

• About doppelgänger and digital twins, urban glimpses and drawing data. The broader context of data about cities, models of cities, and understanding and visualizing cities.
• About 2038, an international team of architects, artists, ecologists, economists, scientists, politicians, and writers, initiated in 2019, aiming to tell a (hi)story that today we call future > très spéciale 😉
• About The Everything Manifesto, a thought experiment for the next billion seconds and an introduction to ‘The Weirdness of Interdependencies’
• Venkatesh Rao freewheeling on narrative as a road in time, and stories as particular journeys taken along that road. Big fan.
• Amber Case explains: what looks cool in a science fiction film is frequently frustrating, distracting, and convoluted to use in real life.
