Passend zum heutigen #DigitalIndependenceDay:
Dieser etwas längere, aber dafür inhaltlich umso reichhaltigere Artikel aus #Noema zieht Parallelen von Plantagen, #Massentierhaltung und der autogerechten top-down #Stadtplanung zur monopolistischen Struktur des Internets und schlägt analog zum #Rewilding von Naturgebieten ein Rewilding des Internets vor.
"The story of German scientific forestry transmits a timeless truth: When we simplify complex systems, we destroy them, and the devastating consequences sometimes aren’t obvious until it’s too late. …
Internet infrastructure is a degraded ecosystem, but it’s also a built environment, like a city. Its unpredictability makes it generative, worthwhile and deeply human. In 1961, #JaneJacobs, an American-Canadian activist and author of “The Death and Life of Great American Cities,” argued that mixed-use neighborhoods were safer, happier, more prosperous, and more livable than the sterile, highly controlling designs of urban planners like New York’s #RobertMoses."
"Technologists are great at incremental fixes, but to regenerate entire habitats, we need to learn from ecologists who take a whole-systems view. Ecologists also know how to keep going when others first ignore you and then say it’s too late, how to mobilize and work collectively, and how to build pockets of diversity and resilience that will outlast them, creating possibilities for an abundant future they can imagine but never control. We don’t need to repair the internet’s infrastructure. We need to rewild it."

Geez, I had no idea that there was a #RobertMoses-proposed east-west freeway planned for #Portland that would run down Division and then Powell! Depending on the exact route they settled on, it might have run right through my house!

⛳️ As the Ryder Cup tees off at Bethpage Black on Long Island, I really didn’t expect any mention of Robert Moses - yet here he is, from Simon Worrall’s piece in the UK Observer 🏌🏿♀️ Had no idea Bethpage was born out of FDR’s #NewDeal either 💡 #RyderCup #RobertMoses

August 29, 1961 - The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) was pursuing its voter registration drive in Amite County, Mississippi. Of 5000 eligible Negro voters in the county, just one was registered to vote. SNCC leader Robert Moses was attacked and beaten this day outside the registrar’s office while trying to sign up two voters. Nine stitches were required but the three white assailants were acquitted.

🔍 A writer waxes poetic about the "legendary" Jane Jacobs, whose most notable accomplishment was foiling the evil urban overlord, Robert Moses. Meanwhile, Hollywood churns out an animated flick featuring Jacobs as New York's #superheroine, because nothing screams intellectual discourse like a cartoon battle scene. 🍿🙄

I'm personally neither a fan nor a critic of Brennan Lee Mulligan's roleplaying style. But I did enjoy The Power Broker episode where they interviewed Brendan, in part about his D&D campaign patterned as a sort of mythic NYC shaped by an esoteric version of Robert Moses, inspired directly by this book.
Potentially of interest to roleplayers, historians, and civics junkies.

I finally finished reading The Power Broker by Robert A. Caro and while the book is extremely long, it paints an extremely detailed picture of Robert Moses' work in the City of New York. I read this as a part of the podcast 99% Invisible's book club, which went through all of 2024.
There are some chapters that feel like: 'here's a bunch of data'. There are other chapters that demonstrate how Moses would not help public transit, not on his watch, cars come first! One such example of that would be to run both sides of a highway far enough apart that you could run trains down the middle. Moses just wasn't interested.
And of course, there are examples of Moses pushing people out of their homes to make room for infrastructure. There are other examples where Moses is going to run a highway through some people's homes, even though there was a park one block south of there that would still work. Moses was having none of that. After all, he had the power – built up over decades.
And now that I'm done with The Power Broker, I need to read some more of the books on my shelf. I have such a backlog.

I don’t have a nice simple intro to #janejacobs and her relatively complicated but important contributions to urban theory, except the big ideas that context, scale, and preservation are important and sudden shocking change is not always the best choice. She is often compared with the grand modernist schemes of her foil #robertmoses

For more historical context. Humboldt Park was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, and the expressway (and parkway destruction) was headed by Robert Moses

Started listening to 99% Invisible's "Power Broker" #podcast , and.. wow. AOC episode was revelatory, to say the least.
https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/power-broker-01-robert-caro/Series concludes October 7th with a live interview at NY Historical with author Robert Caro. Wow. #robertmoses #gentrification #urbanism #cityplanning #fuckcars
