Brian Eno
“Art is a simulator.”
Brian Eno, What Art Does: An Unfinished Theory

George Saunders
“Causality is to the writer what melody is to the songwriter: a superpower that the audience feels as the crux of the matter; the thing the audience actually shows up for; the hardest thing to do; that which distinguishes the competent practitioner from the extraordinary one.”
George Saunders, A Swim in a Pond in the Rain

George Saunders
“A story with a problem is like a person with a problem: interesting.”
George Saunders, A Swim in a Pond in the Rain

George Saunders
“the part of the mind that reads a story is also the part that reads the world; it can deceive us, but it can also be trained to accuracy; it can fall into disuse and make us more susceptible to lazy, violent, materialistic forces, but it can also be urged back to life, transforming us into more active, curious, alert readers of reality.”
George Saunders, A Swim in a Pond in the Rain

Jianwei Xun
“In ultima analisi, la questione non è come sfuggire all'Ipnocrazia - impresa impossibile nell'epoca della mediazione totale - ma come mantenere viva, all'interno del sistema stesso, la possibilità di una presenza diversa. Non una presenza puramente resistente, eternamente reattiva, ma una presenza creativa, capace di generare nuove forme di vita negli interstizi del controllo algoritmico.”
Jianwei Xun, Ipnocrazia. Trump, Musk e la nuova architettura della realtà
