    How do we deal with serial liars? These professional fibbers build up each lie, carefully, preternaturally, like spit on a broom! We share a story of shameless misery dealing with a Millennial dog owner living above him who, while holding a dog in his arms, denies he has a dog in his arms.

  • Final Measure of Mercy

    29/07/2016 Duración: 13min

    How do we quantify and qualify our grief for the dead? Is personal mourning less valuable than the public grief expressed in social media and along the public square?

  • An Irrevocable Aesthetic

    28/07/2016 Duración: 10min

    How do we create ideas that survive within others? That is the idea of an -- "Irrevocable Aesthetic" -- that propagates from person-to-person long after you are gone.

  • Perseverance in Longevity

    21/07/2016 Duración: 12min

    20/07/2016 Duración: 14min

    19/07/2016 Duración: 12min

    Why do we create Art and People and Books and Sandwiches? What drives the human compunction to be remembered? How do we divine the truth? Why are we able to withstand the challenges of time? Technology replaces technology, but what replaces us? (NOTE: Yes, I know burning witches was before the founding of the nation -- a misspeak that is now preserved as part of the Human Meme in amber! -- but please take the point of the riddled point)
