2024 with Anna Kornbluh & J.D. Connor

What this episode covers

The finale episode of our miniseries on corporate allegory was recorded the day after the publication of Anna Kornbluh's "Immediacy, or The Style of Too Late Capitalism" by Verso. With numerous allusions to the book, Matt Seybold asks Kornbluh and "City of Industry" blogger J. D. Connor to consider the potential "perfect storm" of media disruption in 2024. Among the topics they cover are the enshittification of social, search, & and streaming, the investor-led rush to profitability justifiying downsizing across media sectors, the speculative euphoria associated with AI-generated art, and the eroding boundaries between media forms. Theme Song: "This Year" by The Steel Wheels For more about this episode, please visit MarkTwainStudies.com/TwentyTwentyFour or subscribe to Matt Seybold's newsletter at TheAmericanVandal.Substack.com
