This video brings attention to the role hyper-neo-liberal-capitalism was taking in creating the algorithms which occupy the digital space, and increasingly our attention. While humans have always used technology to enhance our world the way new technologies like virtual and augmented reality are evolving and interacting with hyper-capitalism and the attention economy reveals some troublesome trajectories.
While this assessment may seem a little dystopian also I want to encourage viewers that we can win back the digital zone from the extractive interests of hyper-capitalism and harness the democratising potential of our machines for the humans. We have a choice.
