Andrew Feenberg (b.1943)

In the quiet folds of the night, we explore the intertwined journey of Andrew Feenberg, a philosopher who watched the 20th century unfurl through rapid technological advancements and profound sociopolitical shifts. Beneath the gentle hum of progress, we find a landscape marked by the complex interplay of technology as both a tool for empowerment and an instrument of control. As we navigate through Feenbergs critical perspectives on technologys inherent biases and its deep societal impacts, we tread softly on the delicate ground of democracy, community, and the shaping of our collective future. Let us drift into a contemplation of how technology, entwined with human values, can shape worlds in the silent hours of our dreaming.This episode is hosted by Daniel Clark.
