An Update from Dominic Alfred

Lansdowne Station is a destination to explore the relationship between media, technology, and culture

This is Dominic Alfred and I would like to introduce you to Lansdowne Station, a destination to explore the relationship between media, technology, and culture.

This is a publication for people who work inside or are impacted by the way media, technology and culture affects society. Some of my literary inspiration comes from Ursula K. Le Guin, Ernest Hemingway, and Joan Didion. The most impactful analytical influence on my writing comes from Stratechery by Ben Thompson, and many other great writers who devote their time to improving our understanding of how technology impacts society.

We hope that our blend of analysis and storytelling is a welcome salve to the sometimes uncritical writing in our newsfeeds.

Each weekly issue offers a brief summary of a media, technology and cultureculturally topic and how they all intersect.

Many of you know me as a business, technology and media lawyer. But I’ve long been drawn to how media and technology shape culture, business, and our individual experiences and how rarely those forces get the careful, unhurried analysis they deserve. I’ve gleaned those insights across the various clients and industry professionals that I’ve worked with over the past 23 years of my professional life.

Lansdowne Station is co-authored with Peter Cimpoesiu, a writer, artist, and Head of Operations at our legal practice. Peter brings a unique and engaging perspective on modern culture that enriches everything we do here.

You’ll hear from us every week. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

Yours,

Dominic & Peter
