The year is 2023, the time is now. The DisCO Pink Paper completes the
DisCO Trilogy by taking an open-eyed look at the artificially intelligent 2020s. This is a time where
cyberpunk corporate dystopias a la
Blade Runner,
Snow Crash or
Akira are surpassed in their excess only by the cyber-physically gluttonous, world-destroying algo
rhythms bent on enclosure. Everything must be turned to ones and zeros so the numbers can make more numbers. The time for Revolution is nigh and the push forward is powered by knowing where power resides, what power is, and how the world’s disenfranchised
do have the social and technological resources available to turn the plot around. Oil, money and guns only go so far, so stop! In the name of love, before you break our (collective) hearts. And minds, and spirits, and backs. Just stop.
