  • 4: Can Music Remake the Internet? – A Conversation with Laurence Warner

    Laurence Warner makes music (for the internet) and teaches tech (in real life). Since 2020, when he finished a Fulbright Scholarship on smartphone independence and returned to his roots in smalltown England, he’s released a concept album every year, culminating in 2024's *Ctrl-Alt-Rap*: 10 diss tracks vs. Big Tech. His songs have been played on BBC Radio & venues from the Railway Inn to Oxford University.
