Simulacra and Simulation — Hyperreality, Media, and the Illusion of Connection (Audio)
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.
This episode explores Simulacra and Simulation by Jean Baudrillard as a systems-level reflection on how modern life is governed by signs rather than substance. Media, technology, and models of control no longer represent reality—they generate it.
By incorporating contemporary commentary from Louisa Munch (@louisamunchtheory) on parasocial relationships and influencer culture, the episode connects postmodern theory to today’s attention economy, where simulated intimacy replaces lived experience.
