Pandemics, populism, post-truth. Rising sea-levels and dwindling economies. SpaceX, and Zoom fatigue. Smart fridges, nepobabies, Love Island. To many of us, the world, our very planet, appears to be coming apart. How are we to put it back together again (and should we)? What goes where and why?
In ‘The Cluster F Theory’, producer and writer Gia Milinovich and cultural theorist Professor Timotheus Vermeulen consider our options. Each week we speak to a philosopher, critical theorist, scientist, artist, writer or thinker about their take on the present and they suggest a new concept to explain what the cluster f is happening around us. This podcast won’t make you happier, more mindful or fitter. But it will… well… you’ll have spent 20 minutes caring about something other than yourself.
