Algorithmic Reality by Damian Bradfield
The world's most valuable resource is no longer oil, but data. The more they know about you, the better you can be targeted, and then, monetised. The British businessman Damian Bradfield, co-founder of WeTransfer, and the Spanish comics author David Sanchez build an ironic dystopic world, disturbingly similar to ours, to explore the addictive effects of social media, the stealthy invasion of privacy and the dangers of data misuse. With a wry acidic sense of humour, they blur the boundaries between the online and offline worlds and spin disturbingly recognisable tales about our overconnected society.David Snchez (born in Madrid, Spain, 1977) is one of the most individual Spanish comic voices and he is the author of several graphic novels published with leading Spanish literary comics publisher Astiberri. His illustrations are also published in Spanish newspapers and magazines. Damian Bradfield (born in Canterbury, England,1977) is the Chief Creative Officer and Co-Founder of the file transfer service WeTransfer. He is the author of The Trust Manifesto: What You Need to Do to Create a Better Internet (Penguin, 2019), hosts the Influence podcast, and is behind the website Empty Day. Named one of the most influential voices in tech today by Forbes magazine, Bradfield speaks to audiences globally on topics of innovation, education, and the arts and his work has appeared in Fast Company, the Financial Times, and Business Insider,amongst others.
