This is Renegade Files Episode 29, Simulacra & Simulation: What is the Matrix?


In this episode we will explore the depths of Jean Baudrillard’s 1981 philosophical treatise, Simulacra and Simulation. In broad terms, this book examines the relationships between reality and the symbolisms within culture, media, and society.


In this way Baudrillard asserts that our modern society is living in a simulation of reality. However, Baudrillard’s Simulation is not the computer-generated dreamworld of much conspiracy lore speculation, but something far more mind-bending.
