I just reread Peter Watts’s Blindsight for the second time and Echopraxia for the first time. I “got” Blindsight so much more the second time around, but both times it was tough. Echopraxia probably needs a reread at some point, but maybe a few years down the road. So many science, biology, and trans humanist ideas are in those books that you almost need a degree in philosophy to understand it.
