Global Pause - Rethink the Future episodes

  • #92: Rethinking what is the bottom line
    When the bottom line is presupposed we level off the potential for action by substantiating an unchallenged claim. The bottom line is not money or profitability, but your time made into a line. To understand how this bottom line is created is of the utmost importance when you are looking at the potential for change, as we would literally be looking at our actions that produce the form of life that allows time to be a line so ordered against it.

  • #91: Rethinking what price clears

    What does price clear? If we think supple and demand then we remove the question of meaning out of existence, we just presuppose a form of life. We explore what remains unthought.

  • #90: Is our way of life materialistic?

    We think we are materialistic as we are oriented towards "wealth". Does this way of thinking our way of life inhibit us from seeing it for what it is, so conceal potential for action? We discuss.

  • #89: Rethinking marketing as funerary rites
    We are given credit for our want of life, such that we produce a form of life we consume the potential power to create ourselves otherwise than the ghosts we become, when we accept this credit. The myth of Osiris and the funerary rites of Roman emperors provides a way to explore the sovereignty of our exceptionalism or power that remains to renew life.

  • #88: Initiation beyond the buyers journey
    We produce ourselves as consumers of life rather its co-creators. We consume our time to no end, with no potential to transcend the buyers journey we are on. Yet there is a way to initiate a journey where through the product return of the consumer our future is given beyond our want of life, to its creation

  • #87: Rethinking selling out

    Do we ever think we sell creativity out of our lives to be market oriented? Do we demand advertising, to be addressed in the way our actions allow? We discuss.

  • #86: Rethinking virtue signalling
    We often hear the derogative term without understand how a signal is not beholden it its interpretation but rather what is unthought in it. As a result a secret complicity of both accused and accuser can be the way the nature of what the actual issue is remains concealed. The phenomenon of virtue signalling provides such an opportunity as the presupposition is always the most telling.

  • #85: Rethinking the business of "life"
    If we practise economising actions then we have circumscribed their effect so as to manage ourselves in reference to it. We economise so economise ourselves, so we become through the actions that make us. We are consumers of life not the co-creators of it. Is the difference in human action the key to see ourselves otherwise than being the consumer we are taken for. Why have we turned life into business, why labour to secure time that is supplement. We discuss this and more

  • #84: Rethinking time in light of sustainability
    If through an unavowed utopianism we are beholden to no place can sustainable development be possible? If developing markets is not the market for goods and services but rather a way of capturing our temporality through time being enframed as an economic good, what challenge is revealed when time is given this way? How can we think the earth when we do not see how we marginalise the places we share?. To rethink life that is creative sustainable and oriented towards the wellness of life provide a framework to transition form the current paradigm that presupposes a form of managerialism to one where life is unaccounted for, and so beyond the holding pattern we are now ensnared in.
