Operative Frameworks: Designing, Self, Society and the Machine with Moritz Bierling

The Technosocial Institute

Moritz Bierling is an independent researcher, writer, programmer, and open source operative. In this conversation we discuss: communities and practices for developing virtue and non-exploitative relationships with self and world; faith and choice; Peter Thiel's idea of Zero to One; becoming a Zero to One person; capitalism and alienation; operative frameworks for engineering and interfacing with reality; currencies as the grammars of cultural exchange; designing new currencies to enable new social formations; the priestly function and the barred absolute; digital monasteries as the next power concentrations in society; the prospect of AIs ruling societies, and how to adapt; the commodification of mind by technocapital; new technical interfaces for human activity; using operative frameworks to capture and optimize energy efficiency in life; genius, and the dangers of overidentifying with it; animism; oral and written communication, and the codification of language and power.
