One Hundred Years of Solitude
Gabriel Garcia MarquezGoogle ATAP@daemoni: Also I love Gabriel GarcĂa Márquez. “One Hundred Years of Solitude” is an amazing book. The nuance in his writing is incredibly robust and full of flavor. This is what gives me an appreciation of my native language: it’s so rich, intricate, subtle, and nuanced.

Shaping Things
Bruce SterlingGoogle ATAP@matterbattle: Another book which I always found really inspiring is “Shaping Things” by Bruce Sterling. In a strange way, its time has come again with all of the hype around web3, the metaverse, etc. In my work, I was very inspired by both of those. https://t.co/79xzZGdu81

Everyware: The Dawning Age of Ubiquitous Computing
Adam GreenfieldGoogle ATAP@matterbattle: One of my favorite pieces of thinking about ambient computing is Adam Greenfield’s book “Everyware”. It has such a great point of view around social grace, and how these things should behave which is to put a lot of agency and control in the hands of an individual. https://t.co/P6laJ696Dv
