so, fwiw: i am job hunting... with a pretty wide range of possibilities, given that i've had an unusually varied career thus far.
(Palantir, running a small nonprofit, various data science/ML things, wearing all manner of business hats at an AI for manufacturing company, grantmaking).

our collective dependency on producing content & raising capital has created an appetite for source material that the real world can no longer satisfy... the result is a world of manufactured events to meet demand — "vibe shift" "metaverse" "industry plant"

“…into the pointlessness of a mere façade, which is itself immediately replaced by the next. On the other hand, it is the very meaninglessness of capitalist design which gives it unlimited freedom and the greatest impact.”
— Fritz Haug, Critique of Commodity Aesthetics (1987)
English
“In the field of design, the expression of ideas is not the central issue… These ‘creative people’, as the designers who serve capital’s amorphous aims call themselves, are turned into mere shadows of creative people. What they make is always already reappropriated…”

“Sometime last year, my block in Crown Heights started turning orange,” writes Adriane Quinlan. “When the sun set, our windows burned in the apricot tones of the old sodium-vapor lamps.” The shift began with one window, but the spread was swift — up and down the block there were shades of marigold and poppy, Werther’s Butterscotch and Gatorade. From the West Village to Williamsburg, windows became filled with safety-vest orange. “I bet there is a caveman-brain-related thing where it’s comforting to be in the glow of a fire,” says Dan Goedeker, a director of photography. “Orange is a resistance to the sterility of modern life,” speculates Quinlan’s neighbor Grace Ginsburg, who turns on her orange lamps when she’s done with a day’s work on backlit, bluish screens. Quinlan observes how we’ve hit peak orange in our lighting: nymag.visitlink.me/zDwEc1
