002 Rachael Morrison—Joybubbles
Before computer hacking, the analogue, mechanical telephone system was the play-thing of "phone phreaks" like Steve Wozniak. But few are aware of the unbelievable life of this subversive past-time's founder—Joybubbles—who started it all in the 50s before he turned eight. Documentary Film Director Rachael Morrison joins the New Explorations Podcast to retrieve one of the most important, real mythic origin stories of our porous, programmable electronic environment. Get the latest updates on Joybubbles: The Documentary Film on Instagram and follow @JoybubblesMovie on Twitter and on Facebook. Read the Ron Rosenbaum's 1971 Esquire Magazine article 'Secrets of the Little Blue Box' which launched Joybubbles into global infamy!

001 Derrick de Kerckhove—The Digital Twin
Is there any hope our private selves aren't too far gone? Does total surveillance and data analytics pull our agency and very being inside-out? Are we becoming, as McLuhan said of Narcissus over fifty years ago, "the servomechanism of [our] own extended or repeated image?" Professor Derrick de Kerckhove, 25-year director of the McLuhan Center at the University of Toronto says, unreservedly, "yes!" He sits down with host Clinton Ignatov for discussion on the soul-imperiling ramifications of digital media—and possible escapes from its labyrinth of your mind—in this inaugural episode of New Explorations Podcast. Find the PDF of Professor de Kerckhove's paper Three Looming Figures of the Digital Transformation in New Explorations Journal. RSS Feed: https://newexplorations.net/feed/podcast
