Much of what we take for granted in the affluent West is a direct result or consequence of the impulse to protest injustices and other forms of oppression. There are more ways than ever, in the modern world, to express and actualize our discontent. From the use of social media to creating a podcast to approaching a local politician, protest, both individual and group, continues to be a powerful agent for change.Duration - 32:30Credits: YouTube Segment with Peter Finch from the movie NetworkPosted: June 4, 2023

TSP205 - Manufactured Oblivion?

From Canada, with Peter Noce, a media producer and technology trainer/tutor and Harry Posner, a writer, author and former Poet Laureate; sharing our interests and passions with you, on 'The Sill'. The original concept of our podcast was to explore areas relating to Art and Technology, evolving into a virtually ‘no limits’ conversation. Neither of us are experts, nor profess to be. We are on the same level as the listener, offering up ideas and thoughts that come from our life experiences, inviting listeners to eavesdrop on what we hope is an enjoyable and interesting dialogue. We discuss artificial intelligence, the power of poetry in the digital age, explore the worlds of tea and coffee, aging, death and dying, and interview a range of fascinating people. The whole point is to both educate and entertain, and to re-enliven the art of conversation.
