Sci-Fi Dystopias \n\n

1984, Brazil, Farenheit 451, etc. Why do these count as scifi?

\n\n User Interfaces as analogy \n\n

Thanks to Chris Noessel for pointing in the Facebook group the way the \u201cbadly designed\u201d user interfaces are really incredibly well-designed, if the point is absurdism. :)

\n\n Complexity \n\n

In business, objects, life, gadgets, systems. Ducts! Creepin\u2019.

\n\n Security Theater \n\n

Statistics, fear of skin cancer vs shark attack. Viscerality.

\n\n Euphemistic Language \n\n

Covering up reality. Making uncomfortable behaviour easier to swallow. Hiding reality.

\n\n Dreams and Reality \n\n

Cracking up. Dreams. Endings.
