What is From the New World?

FTNW is a newsletter that sees the world as it is, not as we wish it to be. It lays bare the inner workings of technology, media, and politics. It is a handbook for building the future.

Expect a podcast episode every Monday, an article every Friday, and occasional other articles and posts.

You can find me at brianchau [at] fromthenew [dot] world or on twitter, DMs open.
