Global Pause - Rethink the Future episodes

  • #23: Rethinking justice

    We look to reframe the question of justice from the marginality of our time when we receive it as an economic good. The indivisibility of time is compromised through the way of life we presuppose through our unquestioning acceptance.

  • #22: Rethinking the "good" of want

    We look at the primacy of want when we define our agency according to it. How does the claim towards life  work through what we presuppose, do we in fact consume our want as our way rather than create a way of removing it.

  • #21: Rethinking the possibility for democracy

    When we think of democracy we invariably think of governmental organisation but is there another way to think its potential? We pose this question in light of the creativity we do not animate when market oriented, and the individuation of "life" this entails that disempowers the "demos" of self rule.

  • #20: Rethinking afterlife sabbath retirement supplement

    We rethink our way of life by looking at the 7 days of creation as the model for our working week. We consider this in light of the potential nested within the supplement of time we reserve for ourselves that has direct correlations with "redemptive" understanding of time.

  • #19: Rethinking learning money

    Money is a given, and so we give money to our children to learn. What is put into play when the sheer claim of money has on our temporality is not given with this lesson? What do we disinhibit in our way towards life we supposed for our children? We cover questions such as these in latest episode.

  • #17: Rethinking "making a living"

    What do we make living when we are intent on making a living? We explore this question in light of the disavowed Utopianism of our market oriented way of life that makes our striving for life not as clear as what it would appear at 1st glance.

  • #16: Rethinking monies removal

    When our time is made marginal by becoming accountable through the use of money we create the grounds for its presupposition. It's continual development to the point of its virtualisation, or democratisation in peer-to-peer forms offers nothing in the way of this surpassing. We look at this from monies potential removal our praxis facilitates when we no longer accept our time equals it.

  • #15: Rethinking loyalty to our way of life

    We are loyal to our way of life, we accept our way of doing things such that our loyalty is given without questioning why? Why are we loyal to a way of life that takes as a given a reduction in our agency and creativity, why accept passivity, cynicism, and the ills of our way of life when what is possible to us to create remains open. We explore these themes in the latest episode.

  • #14: Rethinking money & goodwill

    Goodwill is an intangible, for a new way of giving and receiving to occur this "asset" must be released from the balance sheet of civilisation. We see this happening as a necessity, as the use of money inhibits the circulation of this good to animate the creation of a world that is not given with its use.
