  • One for the magpies

    One of the most thought provoking podcasts. I just listened to Jeremy Deller and Laurie Anderson’s interviews b2b, both full of gems. Love how Jeremy Deller talks about the internet being like a jumble sale “a place where you go to find out about things in a random way”.. and Laurie’s ideas around bodily intelligence and how much of what we see is purely perception & memory.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Faisal Devji on the rise and fall of global Islam
Q: How do you see the Muslim community, or the Ummah, emerging as a potentially political subject?
It might be emerging for the first time, distinguishing between Islam as a subject and the Muslims themselves, which could allow for a new form of political mobilization.
Faisal Devji on the rise and fall of global Islam
Q: To what extent do you think the greater body of Islam as a kind of communal and personal experience is left largely untouched by this?
Many of these movements deliberately leave aside communal practices or at least reform them, indicating that everyday practices survive despite these movements' influence.
Hayek’s Bastards
Q: How do we then reconcile the appeal of right-wing populism to racial minorities, even where you would imagine they would be the victims of this kind of politics?
Attraction to right-wing populism among racial minorities can be gendered, and there's a complex history of race in different contexts, contributing to political affiliations that do not strictly align with traditional understandings of race.
Hayek’s Bastards
Q: Why is that simplistic story that we're often so told not really reflective of the truth, as you understand it, Quinn?
The demand side of populism suggests people have good reason to feel anger due to the failures of neoliberalism; however, the supply side shows that those offering solutions (like Trump) are often neoliberal thinkers themselves.
Miguel Gomes on cinematic unreality
Q: What was the influence of Somerset Maugham on your film?
Gomes discussed how Maugham's perspective on colonial territories shaped the film's themes, focusing on the portrayal of characters and their experiences in these settings.
