Charles Stross, Extropy, Etc.

I just finished reading Charles Stross' "Singularity Sky." The most interesting thing about it was how the revolutionary invading "infovore" was modeled on Medieval festivals where the traditional hierarchy was inverted. Good models for Temporary Autonomous Zones and the mystic spaces opened up by a good bit o' performance art. Also, the book led me to this article suspended somewhere in the vast interweb.
