If you’re in Pacific Northwest adjacent and into Ethereum Localism, don’t miss BioFi Cascadia!

“Counter to the prescientific age, where concepts such as “anthropomorphism” were used to enforce an imaginary boundary indicating our magical status, modern developmental evolutionary biology and engineering reveal a continuum of systems that require different conceptual tool kits for effective interaction. We need to consider the range of possible interactions and relationship tools (from engineering protocols to love poems and everything inbetween) that motivate the search for the highest possible degree of agency and inner perspective that we can detect (and mutually benefit from) in a system, and not to unthinkingly consign them to low-agency regions of the spectrum that preclude the most enriching interactions. In other words, cognitive and agency terms should refer not to a system's provenance or composition but to interaction protocols that have been empirically developed and shown to provide desirable kinds of interactions.”

Who is doing longtermism/deep futurism from the perspective of mutual entanglement, environmental coupling, intersubjectivity, open ended intelligence - i.e., an abundance of diverse minds on a flat plane and all relationally determined?
It feels like the West has only one model of deep futurism and it's based in dominance, extraction, human supremacy, scarcity and jealous ownership of intelligence understood under a single umwelt.

… Unlike network-effects-for-their-own-sake engines, this sub will grow in capacity to effect local change the more frens it has - and the more internal organization technologies it’s fluent in 🛠️🌱🌍
Maybe this picture of my dog will help?

“We say that humanity is not the proprietor, but the power to shift shape—to get on all fours, to bark and crow, and thereby make matter itself, substance itself, rise up in revolt.”

The world as prosthesis
So deep in this research I think I’ve temporarily lost peripheral vision
Maybe it’s just stress from the recent escalations in the states but I’m tempted to say that every Ethereum localist should be reading obscure-ass stuff like:

“In the underworld, renegade technologists continue to explore. Makers in North Portland weld frankenstein cargo bikes with recycled batteries, musicians gather in a pizza shop in Chicago with generation-old brass instruments to continue a weekly jam session extant since the seventies. A psychonaut sweats in a Kentucky basement, subjecting their body to an altered state not known for a century this side of the Himalayas.
Berlin anarchists sit cross legged in Görlitzer Park, tweaking new self-governance rhythms, microtubule alchemy to jointly collapse the wave. S&M is a technology. Permaculture. Protest strategies in Taiwan. Agroforestry in Mexico, community credit circles in Kenya, hybrid cuisines in Kiev, free creation to spite the war. Dōjinshi genre-forks in Tokyo, breathing techniques in Cassadaga. Everyone, everywhere is experimenting all the time, a massive open calculus, a stubborn material creativity. Ideologies rise, capture, go down in flames. The tools always remain in the rubble. (1/4)

Real ones know that when Avon says “Just dream with me” to Stringer Bell, he isn’t being sentimental or unrealistic. He’s gesturing toward a different form of life - one that is here and now. And one that is equally as real as the life of quantification and capitalization that overtakes and dooms his childhood friend.

A major highlight from our Knowledge Garden is the Playbook, written as a collaboration between @owocki and @omniharmonic for the final essay of the Ethereum Localism book.
