Mim’s bits - Joi Ito’s Near-Perfect Explanation of the Next 100 years One hundred years from now, the role of science and technology will be about becoming part of nature rather than trying to control it. So much of science and technology has been about pursuing efficiency, scale and “exponential growth” at the expense of our environment and our resources. We have rewarded those who invent technologies that control our triumph over nature in some way. This is clearly not sustainable. (via Joi Ito’s Near-Perfect Explanation of the Next 100 Years - Technology Review) Thank you for pointing this short impressive article out Johannes Kleske.

Lifestyle Mirror - Lilly Kwong Lily Kwong. Outside of Manhattan, you may not recognize her by name, and that’s okay—for the moment. The laid-back and fresh-faced Kwong, who happens to be the cousin of CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund award-winning fashion designer-of-the-moment Joseph Altuzarra, is just graduating from Columbia University with a degree in sociology and urban studies, after all. - by Nandita Khanna/ Photography by Billy Kidd (via Lily Kwong: It Girl | Lifestyle Mirror)

FvF meets artist Sage Vaughn in Los Angeles “My parents were full on off-the grid hippies, potbelly stove folks. Growing up, I didn’t realize until I was old enough to get a babysitter, that all of our family photographs were all naked. And when the babysitters would come over, and they’d be giggling at it, and all I could think of is, “doesn’t everybody grow up like this?” Check out our latest portrait from Pasadena, L.A. where we introduce artist Sage Vaughn and talk about his hippie-past, the best places for a early-morning surf and how he became friends with Mike D. Thank you David John (text & interview) and Zen Sekizawa (photography) for this great portrait! (via Sage Vaughn — Freunde von Freunden)
