Ep. 1: On Missing Being Handed Things

This first episode looks at a theme that will certainly come up a lot:  real things disappearing from our world, virtual things taking their place.   

I think it’s important to notice when we’ve attached to objects simply because they are important to us, our own biographical timeframe.   A nostalgia that is sweet but narcissistic too, a longing for objects that were symbols in one’s own life to matter more than they seem to.  A stab at continued relevance.   ‘Back in my day’ insistence.  For me, the distinction comes with objects that are linked to pro-sociality.  It is the disappearance of these objects, that I feel should give us pause.
