Ep.98: The V*be Liquifies Quickly (FIRST PART of 2 hrs) w/ Emmalea Russo

Why do words/media seem to lose its ability to transmit meaning long term? Emmalea Russo is a writer who focuses on mysticism, horror, media studies, and we examine the way micro-movements inevitably end up in the hands of institutions and brands and gamified as commodity. The Vibe Shift is used as one such modern example, as well as Michel Serres concept of The Parasite, St. Augustine and the return to digital nominalism, Byung Chul Han's The Disappearance of Rituals, Joker mythology, and Bahktin's Jubilee.

Without the physical structure of the church, Christianity wouldn't have survived. We troubleshoot how immateriality becomes unseated, and some solutions on how culture may once again survive.

Think of this as a supplemental episode to the Angelicism01 one. Music contributed by Thomas. 🕸🕸🕸🕸🕸🕸🕸
