From Golden-Age Arcadia to a future filled with Androids, we have always dreamed of building a better version of Nature: our world and ourselves. But the dark ecology of Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? reveals that not all upgrades are so different or so improved as we'd like to imagine. In this episode, we enter into his and Timothy Morton’s world, an Ecology Without Nature, where we must learn to love and live with other "unnatural" living things: the dust, the fly, the preying mantis, and the electric things.
