“To me democracy is a form of technology, so as a technologist I’m equally excited about each and every new governance proposal and mechanism.”
In this episode we are joined by Taiwan’s digital minister Audrey Tang, a software programmer as well as the digital minister of Taiwan, in charge of social innovation.
Audrey talks about what it means to be a conservative anarchist while working with the government, quadratic funding & voting, democracy tech vs. surveillance tech, loss of institutional trust and emerging attractors for non-coercive cooperation. Listen in!
