Riley's Commie Book Club: 'Designing Freedom'
Added 2019-10-26 23:02:00 +0000 UTCIt's that time again! Riley's Commie Book Club is back a brief hiatus. This month, we're discussing Stafford Beer's lecture series "Designing Freedom." Beer, one of the principal architects of Cybersyn, the information network that served as the nerve centre for Allende's Chile, spent his life thinking of ways that people could organise to solve common problems in ways that do not create pointless hierarchies between them. Check it out!
I reference an episode of the podcast 99% Invisible here, and I promise I would link it. So! That episode: here.

For anyone else interested, the CBC has the audio of the entire lecture series available for free online.
