Bittersweet, finalizing my four years as advisor at Stimuleringsfonds, within the Digital Cultures commission. I will miss our intensive work sessions together and hopefully believe the fund will give continuity to a responsible societal engagement with technologies of production and control.

Masculinization of the Motherland, Vandana Shiva, & this chapter by Mies are central in the book Ecofeminism. Even though knowing of this publication for the past 10 years, it is the first time I am able to read it back to back. Perfect for a low-energy weekend in-between travels and conferences.
