The most obvious is elections, whereby we go to the polls and choose a candidate on a ballot paper (or more if we are lucky / unlucky) who will then go forward to represent us. Then there are public services, our interactions with municipal government, right through to active participation in public duties such as jury service. How can these be twisted into serving different social purposes than those originally intended? What new outcomes can be built on top of these systems? How can they be made hackable? Where will the next generation of social hackers come from?"],"Page language":["en"],"Page license":["CC-BY-SA-3.0"],"Page parent":["The Future We Deserve"],"Page root":["The Future We Deserve"],"Page title":["The Future We Deserve/Hacking Society and a Proposal for Beta Towns - Andy Broomfield"],"Page views":[6],"Page year":["Friday, 01-Jan-10 00:00:00 UTC"],"Modification date":["Wednesday, 17-Dec-25 15:20:36 UTC"]}
