  Conversations with Birds

  "Birds are my almanac. They tune me into the seasons, and into myself." 
   
   
   
  So begins this lively collection of essays by acclaimed filmmaker and novelist Priyanka Kumar. Growing up at the feet of the Himalayas in northern India, Kumar took for granted her immersion in a lush natural world. After moving to North America as a teenager, she found herself increasingly distanced from more than human life and discouraged by the civilization she saw contributing to its destruction. It was only in her twenties, living in Los Angeles and working on films, that she began to rediscover her place in the landscape—and in the cosmos—by way of watching birds. 
   
   
   
  Tracing her movements across the American West, this stirring collection of essays brings the avian world richly to life. Kumar's perspective is not that of a list keeper, counting and cataloguing species. For Kumar, birds "become a portal to a more vivid, enchanted world." At a time when climate change, habitat loss, and the reckless use of pesticides are causing widespread extinction of species, Kumar's reflections on these messengers from our distant past and harbingers of our future offer luminous evidence of her suggestion that "seeds of transformation lie dormant in all of our hearts. Sometimes it just takes the right bird to awaken us."

  In this fast paced world of the internet, how can you make sure you are leaving your mark? 
  Since 1990, the World Wide Web has developed through three phases. The read phase gave individuals and companies a platform for publishing on a broader scale than ever before, but it wasn't interactive. The read-write phase allows readers and creators to interact with each other on the same Web page, but it has a few drawbacks: Creators are not compensated for the content they produce for platforms, their data is not secure, and they have no ownership of user-generated content. 
  Web3 is emerging to expand the opportunities for creators by delivering tools that help them regain their content freedom, monetize their content better, safeguard their personal data, and fight back against censorship. 
  In this book, you will learn:Why the best safeguard against censorship is decentralization.How the internet changed from being a decentralized asset no one owns or controls to being a centralized collage of walled gardens.Why user-generated content is so valuable to platforms like Facebook and Twitter, but not so great for creators.How blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies are giving creators their freedom back.What creators can do today to secure their content freedom, expand their monetization options, and secure their data. 
  This book is for anyone who wants to know the inside and out of Web3. By knowing these, you will be able to navigate it and make sure you retain your content freedom while fighting against the censorship creators are experiencing on legacy social media platforms.
