The Truth is Written and With Each Word the Future is Lost | A Societal Problem
Dystopian Speculative Fiction on Future Environmental and Social Conditions. A Thorough Look at Unsustainability and Everyday Life and the Critical Role of Design. An Extended Essay.
Preface
To call this a blog post would be an abuse of the term, as this is the most extended piece published on this blog yet. Instead, it is a researched essay released by the more experimental label NoiseBox, though it transcends that name and moves more toward being “Not on Label.” This essay is the fourth post in the “Cassette Series,” which draws significant influence from music and the spirit of the early underground cassette culture that subverted institutions. This essay may become part of a more substantial outcome, such as a book. The Cassette Series and some older works, including the Deep Chaos post, focus on chapter-length pieces that provide room for significant exploration and relationships. Though this essay may be two chapters worth of writing, it belongs as one. That said, I hope you can find the time to read it in its entirety.
