Hi Casters. USV stopped at the gas station last year and now that we've turned the new engine on, we thought we'd share that news https://blog.usv.com/2024-usv-core-fund

ā€œIf we all owned our own data and could make it completely portable, what would we do with it?ā€ Two category errors here. First, the propertization of data. Property is a concept developed for rivalrous resources. Data / information are ripe with anti-rivalrous potential.

Second, portability invokes stocks that might be moved. Data can only become useful information however in the context of it flowing, when itā€™s in motion, and very frequently in transcontextual intermingling.

In short, thinking of data in a computer science paradigm doesnā€™t get us anywhere near as far as being inspired by information in nature. For more, I invite you to check out https://cyborg.social

Sounds like you should be friends with the fine folks over at Blockscience! I don't know if @jeffemmett is active here yet, but take a look at their blog about cybernetic orgs: https://blog.block.science/blockscience-as-a-cybernetic-organization-cyb-org/

Thanks @trigs. Yes, I know the BlockScience team. Stafford Beer and all the good stuff in this post came up in one of my calls with Z / Zargham last year :-)

I figured, but can't help but try to connect like-minded ideas! Are you coming to ethDenver?

You did indeed figure :-) Cybernetics is in resurgence for sure, with am extra biomimetic infusion. This is the 2nd time this week 'Octant' has popped up for me. The 1st being a v quick chat with Paul Glavin about Gardens via Owocki's Allo.Capital. I'd love to be at ethDenver, but we need to close our fundraise first.

If you can make it, stop by carrotcastle.xyz/ and we can jam some more on this and other topics! Would love to see you there, or even better coordinate something specific if you're interested. Just getting ticketing launched to confirm attendees, but it'll be the usual suspects and maybe some surprises šŸ˜
