Odds and Ends
April 14, 2005
I have made a new friend recently, Jean-François Noubel, who talks about collective intelligence with great insight on his bloggy wiki The Transitioner. He is a beautiful being, as well as a creative genius in this work. I'm delighted and so lucky to have met him. With him, a few days ago, I had my third conversation using Skype. So remarkable, talking between France and Oregon (U.S.) on an internet phone line, comfy crystal clear, for over a hour, and totally free. If you have friends or associates in foreign lands, consider Skype.

My friend Kenoli Oleari introduced me to Neil Postman's fascinating comparison of Orwell's and Huxley's dystopias.
I like to think that through dialogue and deliberation we could navigate between them, co-creating something decent, meaningful and sustainable together, not sliding over either precipice. I like to think that in a wise democracy, thoughtful prophetic fiction like Orwell's and Huxley's would be a useful warning, part of the society's collectively intelligent capacity to reflect into the future..
