How today's technologies are encoded with the beliefs of the past Drawing on Louis Chude-Sokei's political and technopoetic writings, this volume shows how past ideas have produced the technologies and lifestyles of the world today―for example, how AI today contains within it the biases of its creators, which in turn shape our present.
Do you wanna know how to do sex good? Ah you tryin' to spice up ya sex life? Do you love the city of Bawston? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this is the book fuh you!

Did you know that Bawstonians ah the freakin' best at makin' sex? It's a fact. Just ask any Bawstonian. Fuh hundreds of yeahs, they have followed the lessons and guidance of this book.

It will ansah ya toughest questions like "What do I do with my junk?" and "What if I can't get any sex?" It has passion. It has positions. It has penis puns. So hold on to ya "Fenway Franks" and ya "Dunkin' Donuts" because we are about to go down to Bean Town!
Současná akceleracionistická filozofie čím dál více slouží jako jistý bod propojení, který v sobě propojuje různorodé pokusy o přeformulování dřímajících společenských možností, odcizených kánonů, i mimolidské estetiky, které v současném diskurzu rezonují. V kontextu těchto probíhajících debat chceme vznést následující otázky: Jakým způsobem můžeme, tváří v tvář společenským výzvám i širému prostoru dalekého vesmíru, smysluplně působit? Jak odhodit pouta současnosti? Jaké jsou možnosti a podmínky spekulativního a akceleracionistického diskurzu, a jaké výsledky můžeme od takového projektu očekávat? Toto je smysl Reinventing Horizons. The current state of accelerationist philosophy increasingly appears to serve as a point of coalescence for various attempts at redefining diverse potentialities, estranged objectivities and inhumanisms which circulate the contemporary discourse. We attempt to add to these discourses by asking the following questions. What can we do within the confines of present conditions, while facing these challenges, agencies and vast spaces beyond? How can we unbind the shackles of the present? What are the possibilities and conditions of speculative and accelerationist discourses, and what are the investments and aspirations for such an endeavour? That is what we mean by Reinventing Horizons.
