Cosmopolitan Currents is a curated audio archive of lectures, conversations, and critical reflections on culture in its broad global sense. Crossing disciplinary and geographic boundaries, the podcast brings together voices from philosophy, the arts, humanities, and social thought to explore how culture shapes—and is shaped by—our aesthetic, political, ethical, and embodied lives.Moderated, directed, and produced by Hirbod Human, Cosmopolitan Currents is a project of The Center for Cosmopolitan Culture, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting intercultural understanding, resisting nationalist chauvinism, and contributing to global harmony through critical and creative cultural engagement. The Center was founded by the renowned philosopher Dr. Richard Shusterman, whose pioneering work in somaesthetics has influenced cross-disciplinary conversations on art, identity, and lived experience around the world.Rather than a single serialized project, Cosmopolitan Currents functions as a growing archive of cultural thought, with each event or featured topic unfolding over one or more episodes. From keynote lectures and scholarly panels to reflective dialogues and exclusive interviews, each entry is carefully curated to preserve the integrity of the original encounter—whether captured in a single session or extended across multiple installments.Whether you are a student, researcher, artist, or curious listener, Cosmopolitan Currents invites you to join a global dialogue that values complexity over certainty, coexistence over division, and reflection over rhetoric. Our goal is not merely to share ideas, but to curate moments of listening that open new paths of understanding between people, cultures, and traditions.To learn more about our work or to support the archive, visit us atCosmopolitanCulture.org and follow the podcast on your preferred listening platform.
