Introduction

I don't need to tell you that our world is crazy right now. You already know that. In fact, there is little I can probably tell you that you haven't figured out for yourself or will soon. We literally live in a world of remakes, every idea is a remake at this point: a rehash of someone else's long ago idea, whether it succeeded or not. What I hope to do is try to make sense of things, push things along and nudge things in a different direction.

Sometimes I will make the case for something, sometimes against. Other times, I'll just simply offer up things as food-for-thought.

I'm Xanap, and no, my parents aren't weird people who actually named me that. Xanap is my techno-political persona. It's pronounced “Za-Nap”, and is entirely made up.
