Magazine

The Wired mission is to tell the world something they've never heard before in a way they've never seen before. It's about turning new ideas into everyday reality. It's about seeding our community of influencers with the ideas that will shape and transform our collective future. Wired readers want to know how technology is changing the world, and they're interested in big, relevant ideas, even if those ideas challenge their assumptions—or blow their minds.

China vs. Big Tech • Once regarded with national pride, companies like Alibaba, Didi, and Tencent are being slapped with fines and leashed with new regulations. The party is over—for the good of the Party.

Just the Two of Us • Can this startup be saved? The stresses of the pandemic are driving Silicon Valley cofounders to couples therapy.

Looks that Quill • The African pygmy hedgehog may be the most Instagrammable pet ever. But behind the tiny top hats and miniature spa weekends, I discovered a sad tale of internet virality.

SPICE WORLD • AS THE LATEST TAKE ON DUNE HITS THE BIG SCREEN, WE TRACE THE LEGACY OF FRANK HERBERT’S COMPLEX, PRESCIENT MASTERPIECE.

LINES IN THE SAND • THE SECRET SCI-FI ORIGINS OF BURNING MAN

HOW TO MAKE A STILLSUIT • BUT NOT REALLY. BECAUSE ACTUAL FUNCTIONING STILLSUITS ARE STILL IMPOSSIBLE.

THE DUNE DOCTRINE • HOW FRANK HERBERT’S NOVEL FORESAW—AND INFLUENCED—HALF A CENTURY OF GLOBAL CONFLICT.

THE SPICE OF STRIFE

TO THE PIXEL AND BEYOND • Alvy Ray Smith is the little-known thinker who made Pixar possible (not to mention all the computer animation you’ve ever seen). Now he’s got a vision for where digital light will take us next.
