[Magical Mystery Media 1/11/2017] HYPERNORMALISATION: Cyber-Utopianism, Post-Truth Darwinism, Social Media as Matrix, UFOs
About this episode
Hypernormalisation is a nearly three-hour epic that leaps from subject to subject in a circuitous journey toward revelation. The film paints a vivid portrait of corporate control and increasing social insularity as it tries to make sense of our modern world's pervasive anxiety and uncertainty.
In filmmaker Adam Curtis's world, we are minds in the matrix, doomed to feed the machine with our bodies and souls.
