How technology changes our relationship to power and ourselves. In-depth interviews and video essays on the philosophy of technology.
I'm a technologist trained in political philosophy who is synthesizing my life's work.

I write and record on original topics in the philosophy of technology here and on my Substack. Find everything at the links below.
