ACFM Trip 60: Shock!
<p>Jem, Nadia and Keir apply their weird-left lens to the power and potential of shock.

Can shock be commodified? What other shocks are coming down the pipeline? These ideas and more with musical input from Kylie, Herbie Hancock and Stravinsky.</p> <p>Find the books and music mentioned in the show: https://novara.media/acfm<br /> Sign up to the ACFM newsletter: https://novaramedia.com/newsletters<br /> Follow our ever-expanding playlist on Spotify by searching ‘ACFM’.</p> <p>Help us build people-powered media: https://novara.media/support</p>
