-# Secession from the broadcast
-
-It's time to travel to the edges because this is where the interesting stuff
-happens.  "What is popular" is rarely a question that helps finding edges.
-I'd like to recap what i learned in 15 months of my re-juvenated and
-re-energized quest into decentralization and what it might mean.  
-
-For one, I'd like to forward a question from Gene Youngblood's
-[Secession from the broadcast lecture][1]: "how can we create on the
-same scale as we can destroy?".  Gene suggests we need to move away from
-the "audience nation" by becoming "political actors" instead of
-"interested spectators of action".
-
-Second, I paraphrase a thought from Adam Ierymenko's [I want to
-believe][2]: If full decentralization is technically too hard currently,
-can we construct and make use of a "Blind Idiot God" (BIG) instance
-which co-ordinates some communication but can not abuse it or even
-understand what's going on precisely?  
-
-Lastly, I wonder how can we create sustained systems and services if we
-don't want the centralized web service cash cow control model?
-As Laura Kolbag [3] pointed out recently in Nuernberg, paying
-for software might not be so bad if the "free to use" models 
-mean surveillance and centralized control. And she notes
-that design and useability should drive open source developments
-instead of features and options.
-
-The edges are where we encounter the others, those who are somehow unlike.
-It's a place where i easily run into fears and look for friends.  At the edges
-there is no central authority suggesting what to think or do next.  And
-the number of people at the edges is always lower than in the center.
-But that's fine, this is how things get moving as i've experienced
-myself a number of times now.
