Sorry to Bother You: code switching, indie media, and the power of scifi w/ Eliot Peper

Published: Nov. 6, 2018, 7:45 a.m.

This movie \n\n

It gets a bit weird! And we have a bit of a time summarizing it.

\n\n Storytelling \n\n

Adventure stories. Social allegory. The power of science fiction in particular to force you to reframe your perception by believably breaking your assumptions. HG Wells and Moreau. Science fiction tropes and the subversion thereof. Christopher is bad at human things.

\n\n Code Switching \n\n

Languages, dialect, and speaking to your audience. \u201cNot having to think about it.\u201d

\n\n

Media

\n\n

Mass media vs indie communities. The lowest common denominator. Kevin Kelly\u2019s 1000 True Fans.

\n\n Milk stuff \n\n

A lament for the concentration on cow\u2019s milk. Mare milk. Fermented milk products from cows and horses.
