Listen "40 - elsewhere is here"
Episode Synopsis
Our obsession with impact exhausts me.
Everything must be measured, analysed, optimized—our choices now
data-driven. As if it weren’t enough that arts and culture got caught in
this trap, imprisoning imagination inside charts and PowerPoint
presentations, we’ve also adopted the vocabulary of capitalism to define
our friendships and love stories: we invest emotions, calculate risks
before opening our hearts, swipe, like, and treat one another like
commodities. The space for genuine discourse has been swallowed by the
clickability of headlines and reels.
