Cultural ecologist Rina Atienza joins Nerds That Talk Good to explore play, media, and meaning-making. From McLuhan’s media ecology to the power of card decks, we unpack how constraints fuel creativity and why storytelling matters more than ever.

EP016: Cards, Culture, & Chaos with Cultural Ecologist Rina Atienza

Bringing together smarty-pant communicators from across all kinds of subject areas (computers to chemistry, physics to futurism, and archeology to anthrozoology) about how they bring their technical talk to life and overcome those "blank stare" moments.

When it comes to tech-talk that just works without overwhelming or dumbing down, you don't have to speak well. You only have to talk good!
