Deep Research: The Gateway Tapes Pt 3 52:10

for 6 weeks siden52:10

52:10

Deep Research is a mini-series collaboration with Otherworld. In the final episode, Josh speaks to the researcher "JC Dentun" about the vast cosmology and beliefs of Robert Monroe and the circle of people around him that we learned about in Part 1. Jack writes: A big thank you to Joshua Citarella for going above and beyond with this series. He started exploring this many months ago, and quite frankly, I had no idea what he was working on. I was amazed when he came back with an entirely new perspective on the Gateway saga and Monroe's connection to the military. Although it’s just a theory, I personally love the idea of these guys convincing the government to fund their own spiritual research. That's exactly how I want my tax dollars spent! Follow on IG: Otherworld, JC Dentun…

Against Platforms w/ Mike Pepi 48:01

for 14 weeks siden48:01

48:01

Mike Pepi is the author of “Against Platforms”, a bold critique of the hidden costs of digital life – and a manifesto for a better future. He is also one of my best friends and someone I have been in conversation with for over a decade. In this episode, we discuss our shared history in working to develop a new institutionalist critique of emerging technologies and platforms. The vast expansion of platforms during the 2010’s, which now encompass nearly all aspects of social life, represented a blindspot for the political left. To understand how this happened, we need to retrace the history of the 60’s counter-culture and the embrace of libertarian philosophies amongst the New Left. Since 2011, Mike Pepi, Brad Troemel, myself and other artists and writers have been engaged in an on-going dialogue that explores the ideological roots and design of platform technologies. Mike writes: “We have been taught that digital technologies are neutral tools, transparent, easily understood, and here to serve us. The reality, is that they are laden with assumptions and collateral consequences – ideology, in other words. And it is this hidden ideology that must be dismantled if we are to harness technology for the fullest expression of our humanity.” Get the book: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/761644/against-platforms-by-mike-pepi/…
