The Institute for the Future commissioned me to write a story about the “Internet of Things,” and I wrote them a piece called By His Things Will You Know Him, about death, networks, and computers. It’s part of an anthology called “An Aura of Familiarity: Visions from the Coming Age of Networked Matter,” which we’ll be publishing on Boing Boing in the following weeks. The stories to come are from great authors including Rudy Rucker, Ramez Naam, Bruce Sterling, Madeline Ashby, and Warren Ellis.

I read the story aloud for my podcast last week, and have been awaiting the chance to publish it — now that it’s live, here you are!
