Here we look to write a text that clearly and powerfully asserts the importance of reforming political, intellectual and scientific debate.
The manifesto should: - Assert a call to action - Reform the nature of debate - Include Attitude and Passion - Embed Technology in Human Practice
# MAD
This is about attitude. We seek to avoid the avoidance of emotion. Fear, passion, love, anger, contemplation - we seek to include rock-and-roll and the spirit of punk and the hedonism of disco into our deliberations.
> Is that mad enough? Is it over the top?
Art, documentary and science are human practices, we seek to ensure they are appealing and engaging to all participants. Not by sprinkling marketing sugar on top of stayed formats, but by building on a radical philosophy of deliberation that refutes a duelist approach to political debate and scientific understanding.
