"The story goes like this: Earth is captured by a technocapital singularity as renaissance rationalitization and oceanic navigation lock into commoditization take-off.

So basically, Nick Land is like Dr. Breen in Half Life2, urging us to collaborate with the Combine?
>>
some anon here writes just like Land in Meltdown, but claims he got the style from somewhere else
the book he cited was quite obscure, written by a japanese guy (either english translation or originally in english), possibly sci-fi, mentioned Daivd Bowie reading it (likely untrue) on its amazon page, and read a lot like Meltdown
does anyone know this book or can find one of this anon's posts?

I'd guess:
>The story goes like this: Earth is captured by a technocapital singularity as renaissance rationalitization and oceanic navigation lock into commoditization take-off.
Modernism and globalism have caused an accelerating rate of technological and commercial advancement.
>Logistically accelerating techno-economic interactivity crumbles social order in auto-sophisticating machine runaway.
Traditional social order (families/nations) is broken down by this globalization. This, in turn, makes way for further acceleration (via ease of international trade, the global financial system, etc.).
>As markets learn to manufacture intelligence, politics modernizes, upgrades paranoia, and tries to get a grip
Private power eventually has too much control (modern algorithms and data science), and in turn governments fumble to react against it to maintain their own power.

Um... was that a thing already when he wrote that?

>>9933836
No, he wrote Meltdown in the 90s. He meant AI but my parentheses were just to give him more prediction credit.
