Extremophile by Ian Green

Biohacking thriller set in a near-future climate-collapse London. Bought on paper at Bijleveld bookstore in Utrecht. Picked it up because it had an endorsement of Adrian Tchaikovsky, whose books I usually enjoy. This is Green‘s first SF book after writing mostly fantasy. Very enjoyable hope punk.

European citizen in a networked world. Based in the Netherlands, living in Europe, working globally. There are no Others. There is just me and many of you.

I write about how our digital and networked world changes how we work, learn, decide and organize. I explore the tools and strategies that help us navigate the networked world. I am passionate about increasing people's ability to act (knowledge), and their ability to change (learning). Key-words: open data, open government, fablabs, making, complexity, networked agency, networked learning, ethics by design.
