Eavesdrop on Buk Kleb

Novel pertama yang dibaca Buk Kleb jatuh pada... Merahnya Merah oleh Iwan Simatupang (pertama kali diterbitkan pada 1968)! Kali ini, Dafi dan Zi goes from sleepy to confused (karena udah lupa bukunya tentang apa) to existential to sufficiently hopeful. Episode kali ini juga diselingi dengan cuplikan quote dari Zi tentang Desain Produk yang, jika pendengar suka dan Zap merestui, mungkin bakal jadi segmen tengah episode berikut-berikutnya juga. Just let us know~ OH IYA! This time, the recording is a little smoother and clearer too!  Dan, kami punya logo baru! All credit goes to @posthuman (Discord)/@mfkiribahtiar (IG), terima kasih Fikuri!

In this first #Level10Special (naik level discord), Dafi dikasih kesempatan untuk memilih tema diskusi buku minggu ini! And she chose "Loneliness". Diramaikan sama Zap, Zi, Eka, Nuel, dan Fikri, buku-buku (ada 5) yang dibahas di ep ini adalah: "Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage" -Haruki Murakami, "Love" -Hanne Ørstavik, "Catatan dari Bawah Tanah"/"Notes from the Underground"/"ZAPiski iz podpolya" - Fyodor Dostoevsky, "The Storyteller" -Jodi Picoult & "Sputnik Sweetheart" -Haruki Murakami. We mostly talked about how we'll never understand nor be understood by someone, and the pain of feeling connected di dalam jiwa tapi akan selalu ada jarak, isolation dan prisons of the soul... is loneliness inescapable from humanity? Juga tentang feeling related to the satellite Sputnik dan ditutup dengan membaca puisinya Eka.

HALO! Buk Kleb is back in business with Radical Technologies by Adam Greenfield! We've just finished reading Rad Tech and discussed it today with Zap, Dafi, Eka, dan Iman/Nuel. We talked about how interesting everything in the book is (except maybe Cryptocurrency and Blockchain wkwk), falling into contemplations, being skeptical, buying paintings by AI, and wanting to read "Klara and The Sun" and maybe watch Spongebob to see Plankton and Karen (his robot wife) in a new light.
