In this episode, I describe the concepts of total war and total art. Both of these concepts use the word "total," emphasizing that many different elements are integrated into a holistic war, artwork, or gesture. I talk about how "total art" may be the way for us to prevent the logic of total war from consuming everything. "Total Artwork" has its origins with Richard Wagner, and the concept itself should be interrogated to find whether there is really "an" artwork any more than there is "a" war.
