Low-tech Magazine

Visit Website

A publication questioning the belief in technological progress, exploring historical low-tech solutions and their modern applications — the website itself runs on solar power.

Why it is useful

The actual website is powered by a solar panel and goes offline when it is cloudy in Barcelona — an unusually honest statement about what it advocates. The articles rigorously examine whether modern high-tech solutions actually outperform their historical counterparts when full lifecycle costs are considered. A genuinely distinctive perspective in a web dominated by tech optimism.
