'new mediating institutions, such as citizens’ assemblies, that encourage and enable civil discourse and consensus formation at the same virtual scale as social networks, are more necessary than ever because the forces of fragmentation have never been greater.'

My theory about the current state of #ukraine is related to the words of #kissinger: #Israel is over, they will never settle there, too much troubles. So they will move to Ukraine, with top quality soils and water.
And it makes sense #blackrock buying all the land available and repossessing the old #kazarian territory, setting the #digitalSociety and pushing local people to Poland. They are making the new #zion!

Podiumsdiskussion zur #Zukunft der #Demokratie in der #DigitalSociety. Demokratie der Wettstreit der Ideen. Im Diskurs die besten Lösungen, die von allen getragen werden, zu finden.

On Monday we concluded my NWO Vidi project CoreSAEP with the symposium ‘Being human in the #DigitalSociety: on technology, norms and us’, and the successful PhD defence of Dr. Ilir Kola on Enabling Social Situation Awareness in Support Agents. It was wonderful to be able to share and discuss the work with others. We haven’t had much opportunity to do so due to Covid-19 and other challenges. See link for a short report, including a 10min overview video of the project! https://intimate-computing.net/news/symposium-being-human-in-the-digital-society/ #AI

Hello all! Here is my #introduction for the new instance #AkademieNL! I’m a computer scientist at #UTwente, working at the intersection of logic-based #AI, human-computer interaction #HCI, and #philosophy/#ethics.

We develop models and methods for creating intimate technologies that can take into account personal norms, values and #vulnerabilities, towards a caring and inspiring #DigitalSociety. Inspired by smart #textiles, #wearables, #art, #dance, embodiment. Experiencing #disability.

#NGI4EU welcomes NGI Zero Entrust, working toward #Innovative technologies through free and #OpenSource # software to restore #EU sovereignty of the #digitalsociety. https://www.ngi.eu/ngi-projects/ngi-zero-entrust/
