The Self and the Machine: Stone, Steel and Sundials. The Alchemy of Empire

from Machine in the Mirror · host Dan Zax

Empire lives less in armies than in the quiet architectures of space and time. From temples and railways to clocks and networks, this episode explores how stone, steel, and schedules reshape not only our movements, but our very sense of self. And as the supermind begins to rise, we ask: what kind of empire is being built within us now?
