Interesting read by Brett Scott about the soullessness of cashless cities, the commodification of the human/e experience, and surveillance capitalism - all toxic to the nurturing of arts and culture: brettscott.substack.com/p/the-war-on-i…

Last JCIP before Christmas and its one I could have done for another 2+ hours.

I would advise everyone to read Brett Scott's book as it dives into some important themes.

Grateful to Brett for opening up about his OCD & the positive & negative experiences that come with it.

This is a phenomenal read on Britain and surveillance capitalism by Brett Scott capturing how life here has the feeling of being constantly, ruthlessly interpolated by PR executives. Something I never understood until I left for long period of time. brettscott.substack.com/p/the-war-on-i…

I get emotional about cash in my latest piece about London’s rapid acquiescence to surveillance capitalism

Brett Scott on how surveillance capitalism is changing our relationship with money, with each other, with our neighborhoods and our cities (and not just London). In continental Europe, the private takeover of money in daily life has been surprisingly rapid and successful.

The AI predictive text feature on FB Messenger is like a guy at the gym who tries to pull you up when you're doing push-ups. How the f*ck do I make him go away?

How does the fusion of Big Tech and Big Finance play out in narratives about our monetary system? Last month I spoke about this at Moneylab 13 in Cyprus

Being excited about automation under capitalism is like being excited that a stone gets pulled down under gravity

Cashless sucks - It’s not in the interests of the ordinary person but it’s not a conspiracy either. A cashless society is a system run amok

Jeez I'm tired of X deprecating every tweet that includes a link to a platform they don't like, so I'm just going to leave a picture of my latest piece. You can find it by following the link in my profile

Right now, there's a real version of cashless society and a fantasy one, but whichever you choose to showcase reveals your politics aeon.co/essays/going-c…

When people talk about using fintech for the 'democratisation' of finance, be very suspicious

What they normally mean is 'encouraging the spread of financial logic so that it totally encompasses all of society'

I raised the heinous bank spying clause on Iain Dale ⚒️🇺🇦.🇮🇱’s LBC Cross Questions panel tonight - the Conservative MP Flick Drummond told me she has no idea what it was.

I believe her - but just got home & checked Hansard &, yep, she voted in favour of it on Weds. That’s democracy! 🥴
