I have now many times claimed that our obsession with “taxonomy” (naming trends, aesthetics, etc) was due to the state of cultural confusion we are in. There are too many things happening all at once, many of them fake or astroturfed, some real but rare, especially now in the age of AI.
I’m joining
@MTSlive to monitor the cultural situation, so to speak. My show is called MEDIA STUDIES
I’ll be on daily, tune in! Expect research, writing and, for once, a bit of cultural clarity.
Couldn’t be more excited.
