Our reads this week: an impressive Kickstarter project, thoughts on the cognition of organizations, patent battles in Germany, Instagram’s sale to Facebook, and a collection of pieces on the New Aesthetic. Enjoy the weekend.

While we are not in the music business and this is certainly not the place to get tips on the latest scoop on new releases, I couldn’t resist on pointing towards Moby’s newest.

Yes, we are certainly not objective when it comes to Soundcloud – many of our friends are employed by this up and coming startup -, but there is no doubt that they are gaining some well deserved attention. It feels almost as no day passes by anymore without a big new releases that is being powered by Soundcloud. Moby’s release is no exception.
