Pit of Despair w/ Seth Paskin

Mark’s Partially Examined Life co-host Seth joins us (i.e. Mark and Mary) to introduce Seth to improv and continue introducing philosophy to Mary. We discuss Seth’s attraction to depressing texts, act out couples’ therapy and monster beauty parlor, and open up a few philosophical cans of worms: Is truth relative? (Hint: no!) Does outer beauty reflect inner beauty? You can choose to watch this episode unedited on YouTube: My image for the last episode was created with Claude AI, which informed me that it is not actually an image generator, so I have taken the plunge and have gotten a MidJourney subscription. This image of some couples’ therapy by a pit was supposed to be “as if drawn by a 4-year-old,” but I think achieving the desired level of shoddiness may be an ongoing struggle with this tool. Why are there people in the pit? I don’t know; I didn’t ask for that. Why is the therapist apparently a child? No clue. MidJourney generates several options based on any given query, and I picked this one, but they all featured people in the pit, and many of them looked much less child-drawn, so this is what you get today.

NEM#57: Richard Amp’s Exploratory Atmospheres

Richard F. Walker’s London space-rock band called “Amp” has put out 16 albums since 1992, plus Richard has released five more solo albums (usually as “Amp Studio”). He typically works with vocalist Karine Chariff; since she likes to sing actual songs, Amp’s music is not always a matter of abstract soundscapes. We discuss “Just Get It (Why Don’t You)” and “Les Ombres Sur la Lune” from Q Factors (A Mixtape) (forthcoming, 2017) and “Tomorrow” from Stenorette (1988). We then listen to “Levil Devil” from US (2005). Opening music is from Transmissions (2005), and closing music is from “Mort Irritées” from AMP Studio’s Uncertainty Principles (2016). For more info, see ampbase.net. You can hear most of Richard’s music streamed free from ampbase.bandcamp.com, and more on their Soundcloud channel. To see live clips and such, see AmptheBand’s YouTube channel. You can hear the 2014 version of “Les Ombres” here. Here’s the untitled demo of “Tomorrow” before it got all techno’d up for the album version. Hear more Nakedly Examined Music. Like our Facebook page.

PMP#47: Sitcom Premises: Genius, Bonkers and Otherwise

Sitcoms traditionally provide a cozy, relatable, changeless environment, but streaming and serialization have changed this. What are the limits on the format? Mark, Erica, and Brian consider After Life, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Community, the Parks & Rec reunion, the Space Force pilot, the stain of Chuck Lorre, and much more. Plus, which weird premises are real: a quiz! For more, visit prettymuchpop.com. Hear bonus content for this episode at patreon.com/prettymuchpop.

Virtual Socrates w/ David Chalmers

The New York University Prof and author of many influential books including the new Reality+: Virtual Worlds and the Problems of Philosophy joins Mark and Bill to simulate debates about AI, cybersex, actor vs. character, and keeping children safe from reality. We refer to Nick Bostrom’s argument that we’re most likely now in a simulation. In a past episode, we discussed Robert Nozick’s “experience machine.” If you somehow didn’t know what we were talking about re. Rudy Giuliani in Borat 2, watch it. Check out Mark’s previous interview with David. The art is by Socrates Gates at age 5 (called “Journey to Enlightenment”). Hear more PvI. Support the podcast!
