Software that inspires
A slightly less random assortment of books
- The Real
World
of Technology by Ursula M. Franklin. Absolutely necessary.
- The Software Arts by Warren Sacks.
Illuminates how computing stems less from logic and more from rhetoric & the language arts than we might
think.
Useful for parsing "demos".
- The
Age of Surveillance Captilaism. Dense, technical, long, but worth it.
- The Gutenberg Elegies, not
super
well known but a book that kickstarted a lot of thinking for me.
- FSG Originals x Logic Magazine Series.
Short,
to the point, and incredible insightful.
- How to do
Nothing and of course Saving Time by
Jenny
Odell. Will read anything with her name on it.
- Trick Mirror by
Jia
Tolentino. Not exactly focused on the technology, but on the feeling of it all, and of growing up in the
21st
century quite well.
- How to Resist Amazon and Why by Danny
Caine, owner of Raven Bookstore in Kansas City. If you liked Berry, you will like this.
Fiction that unsettled me for days
