With Paul Feigelfeld

from Purple Code · host Purple Code Team

In this episode, we speak with Paul about our responsibility to society as analysts, and about the role of artists in translating back and forth between theoretical foundations and practical forms of action. The conversation explores how theory and practice can be meaningfully combined, how we can build the capacity to intervene and create change, and why a deep understanding of historical developments and their underlying structures is essential. Paul shares insights from his research into histories of knowledge transmission between China and the West, as well as the relationship between language and symbolic systems. Throughout the episode, we reflect on the importance of working with people who are in a position to bring about real transformation, and on the value of counter-histories in opening up new ways of thinking and acting.
