Listen "Value in Flux"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we explore the fascinating “economy of enrichment,” where objects gain value not just from price tags but from stories, cultural significance, and emotional resonance. From historical artifacts to modern art, we examine how rarity, hype, and potential investment shape the art market. Delving into concepts like meta price and cultural capital, we uncover the complexities of assigning worth in a world where meaning and market forces collide. Discover how this evolving economy challenges us to rethink what we truly value.
