Kris de Decker on Low Technology
In the two years I lived in Barcelona, one person in particular fascinated and inspired me. His name is Kris de Decker and he is the head behind lowtechmagazine.com. For almost 20 years, Kris has been publishing articles about life with less and simpler technology. He turns himself into a laboratory and a medium, venturing into worlds that remain closed to most of us.
In our interview, we talk in particular about the question of how a utopian, lean and, above all, Big Tech-independent social Internet could look like.
This is the first episode of my new podcast “Demystify Technology”. The idea behind it is to create a space for ideas that are not directly linked with Creative Coding, but more the birds perspective on the human relationship with technology.
