Podcast Overview

A podcast about how social media influences us. If you're a curious scroller who wants to learn more about the technical concerns, cultural trends and societal impact of social media, you're in the right place. From data rights and privacy protection to self-branding and kids online, no two episodes of Selfie Reflective are the same. With host Lucy O, we'll hear from ex-influencers, academics, creatives and thinkers from around the world who bring different perspectives to the status-update quo. By sharing lived experiences, knowledge and insights, and examining both the good and the concerning, we'll unpack the seductive, individualised experience of social media and hone in on opportunities to leverage it for collective good.

'The Social Dilemma' - with Jeff Orlowski

Jeff Orlowski is a director, producer and cinematographer ~ For the finale of season one, I am so excited to introduce you to the man who recently brought a documentary to Netflix that speaks to issues around the attention economy on social media. If you’re a fan of this podcast, it’s likely you’ve heard of it and if you haven’t - get on it, like, now! The film is called ‘The Social Dilemma’, and today we are speaking with the Director - Jeff Orlowski. Jeff Orlowski is the director, producer, and cinematographer of award-winning films, Chasing Coral and Chasing Ice, which tackle issues that pertain to our climate crisis. He is also the founder of Exposure Labs, a production company dedicated to impact through film. Jeff’s latest release is called ‘The Social Dilemma’, and it had its world premiere at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival. Through interviews with tech experts and critics, The Social Dilemma takes a wide lens on the human impact of social networks. It is now on Netflix, where it is described as a documentary-drama hybrid where tech experts sound the alarm on their own creations. In this episode, Jeff talks about his own personal relationship to social media and tech. He unpacks what tech is helping us to accomplish, what it is looking for and how it exists in competition with the rest of our lives. Jeff speaks to the critique that ‘The Social Dilemma’ is oversimplified. He also talks us through something that sounds as terrifying as it is - a resurrection algorithm. Shownotes: Check out Jeff's production company, <a href="https://www.exposurelabs.com/">Exposure Labs</a>, and DEFINITELY watch '<a href= "https://www.netflix.com/nz/title/81254224">The Social Dilemma' on Netflix</a>.

A note from Lucy: Hello listener. This episode - episode 35 - will be the last release in what we’re calling Season 1 of Selfie Reflective. We’re hitting pause on the show for now - but hopefully not forever! I love this podcast and I am so passionate about the subject matter. In my notebook I am still collecting the names of people I want to interview and topics I want to cover, and this list easily exceeds ten pages! I hope that one day I will be able to reignite this show for Season Two, and that I’ll also be able to bring even more depth to the way I host this show. I believe with my whole heart that the subjects that are being presented on this show are desperately important - and that feeling seems to be one that is shared by not just Jeff Orlowski (our final season one guest (who is kind of a big deal)) - but every guest who has generously given their time and knowledge to this show. Thank you so much for listening.

Status: Activism - with Guled Mire

Guled Mire is a policy advisor, and writer, speaker and community advocate ~ On the podcast, we’ve talked about topics like slacktivism from an academic perspective. We’ve discussed the Christchurch Principles and ideas like freedom of speech and democracy online. But in this episode, we’re chatting to someone who lives and breathes activism, both in our material world and in our online spaces. Guled Mire is a Fulbright Scholar and a Fellow at the Cornell Institute for Public Affairs. He is senior policy advisor by profession and a writer, speaker and community advocate in his spare time. Guled uses his platform and profile to facilitate courageous conversations about racism and discrimination in New Zealand and to discuss the things we need to do to build a truly inclusive, welcoming society. Guled is a big fan of having open conversations about mental health and is a founding member of the Third Culture Minds Charitable Trust, which supports young people from refugee and migrant backgrounds to get the support they need. In this episode, Guled gives us insight as to what it’s like to be an activist in the online space. Where does he think the online space is most powerful? Why is having access to other people and businesses meaningful - and why can it also be dangerous? How can people be effective allies to support marginalised people in the online space? What’s it like to show up as an individual and present views that challenge and outright go against the status-quo? Trigger warning: this conversation does discuss the Christchurch mosque attacks. Guled uses an example in this episode that references the Crusaders - and for anyone who is not from New Zealand, you’ll likely be able to deduce this from the story Guled tells - but just for added context, the Crusaders were, and somewhat controversially still are, the local rugby team of Christchurch.

Unintended Consequences - with Nadja Streiter

Nadja Streiter is a psychotherapist and parent-coach who is based in New York ~ Do you remember what it was like in the days before we had Smartphones? Really remember? What did you reach for when you were waiting in line at the bank? What means did you use to communicate with your friends? What platforms or spaces did you occupy to showcase your creativity, ideas or personality? Smartphones and digital technology has allowed society to make unprecedented gains - that’s undeniable - but today’s guest wants us to think more closely about digital wellness in relation to the things that human beings might be losing as a result of this accelerating world - things like conversation, space away from work and being alone with our own thoughts. What is the point where positive returns start diminishing as we rely on these technologies more and more? Nadja Streiter is a psychotherapist and parent-coach based outside of New York. Nadja has expertise in treating adults and adolescents who struggle with Video Game Addiction - though as you’ll learn in this episode, she cares deeply about all facets of technology and the ways it’s impacting our modern world from both a personal and professional perspective. Nadja frequently speaks on the topic of problematic behaviours that are technology-based, and also serves as the Programs Director at <a href= "https://gamequitters.com/">Game Quitters</a>: a global support community for those who are working to overcome gaming addiction. This is another episode in which we cover a tonne of ground. We discuss how Nadja originally became interested in humane technology, why the line between healthy use and disordered use of technology is so hard to define, why human needs and business needs aren’t matching up online and why the demands of tech, specifically in-home devices like Alexa, might produce unintended consequences for human behaviour in future. Shownotes: Find Nadja in all the places - <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/eyesupwellness.nadjastreiter/">Instagram,</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/nadja_streiter">Twitter</a> <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/Eyes-Up-Wellness-103587027957592/">Facebook</a> and LinkedIn on her <a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/in/nadjastreiter/">personal</a> or <a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/company/eyesupwellnes/">business</a> profile.
