Session Abstract: The Age of Literate Machines

I've never found this abstract to be terribly engaging. I'll be rewriting it when I get a moment.

Title

The Age of Literate Machines

Summary

Free Software and Open Source are understood to be reshaping technology. What is less understood is how FOSS relates to the future of free societies. During this session, we'll examine how FOSS relates to the past, present and future of our freedoms, stopping along the way to visit ancient god-kings, heretics, long-dead muftis, our first computers and the current state of our automated society.
