Re: <nettime> Nettime is in bad shape. Let's see if we can change it.


hi!



Somewhere along the line we as a culture have forgotten the distinction between
'technology' and 'services'.  A 'technology' is really just a method or system
for applying knowledge to a problem; any individual or business could choose to
implement (or commission, or lease, or purchase outright) that technology
independently and control it completely. 

I don't know if I understood correctly, but this could be a very dangerous position indeed.

Technology is far from neutral: we invent technology just as much as technology invents us.

ciao!
