The 90's promise of cultural and capital acceleration completely fizzled out, which totally explains Lands position now. He seems to have handled that reality better than the rest of CCRU.

Land talks about this a bit in the "Concept of Acceleration" stuff from NCRAP, but acceleration was never supposed to address something-to-come, but to designate a process that is already underway, i.e. the accelerating rate of change of techno-economic development +

Also round-a-boutness implies an oblique accelerative trajectory. Linear acceleration was never a possibility and is probably the largest misunderstanding for those with mere cursory understanding of the issue.

Is it really not a possibility or is that just to justify creative destruction as the highest form of acceleration?

Of course, there can be linear processes, but these are meshed/mangled with non-linear and/or extra-linear processes. There is no 'purity', hence no purely linear acceleration(s), either understood as instance or 'in-itself' (acceleration(s) or Acceleration).

I wonder what recursive selfimproving ASI's extra-linear process would be.

Indeed, that is certainly worth pondering.
