Willpower, Personhood, and Calvino's The Nonexistent Knight (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Eden and Langdon return to disparage Francis Fukuyama (and mispronounce his name, sorry) before moving to lauding Italo Calvino's tongue-in-cheek, sharply constructed The Nonexistent Knight. They explore questions of historical reception, "herohood", identity, and (post)modernism. Music played: Papangu - Colosso https://papangu.bandcamp.com/track/colosso
The Singularity with Kayte Terry (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Kayte Terry from Tender Subject podcast joins Langdon to talk about The Singularity, the first serious piece of Italian science fiction and a story of getting yourself all messed up about AI, the cold war and weird Zones. The song is "Endogenous Polypharmaceutical Communion Rite of the Oracular Virgin Priestess" by Effluence and it's 35 minutes long.
