EP6. 中文互联网考古：一个url的无限可能
Reddit网民和华尔街的GME激战愈演愈烈，作为在大洋彼岸隔岸吃瓜的哺贝，很巧地与两位杰出的「中间」艺术家展开了对简体中文语境下互联网生态的考古。从早期论坛和社交软件的回溯，到探讨当下形成的数字高地，互联网所带来的可能性和构想，一直游走于「乌托邦」和「恶托邦」的意识形态当中。
本期嘉宾
aaajiao_ 中坚（中间？！）艺术家，互联网资深玩家，曾被初代网管“拔“过网线。
李然 跨媒介的多栖艺术家，以“不网络”的创作风格独树一格。佛系互联网用户，在豆瓣收获真爱。

EP5. 文明致死吗？
我们最为骄傲的「文明」其实是个错觉，正是应验了"一切都很精彩，但是没有人是快乐的。" Civilized to Death 这本书重新梳理了狩猎采集的史前人的生活，虽然他们也要面对自然的种种险象，但是与现代人所面临的疾病、战争、冲突相比，从人类社会的整体发展而言，文明是否真的带来了进步？

EP4. 宫崎骏的女性主义
我们延续上集对社会权力结构的探讨，从宫崎骏的美人鱼、迪士尼的救世冰雪女王、甚至支持父权制的美国夫人形象，来聊一聊流行影视文化折射出的女性主义光谱。2017年哈维·温斯坦性侵事件引发的#MeToo浪潮将女性平权运动带入了一个新的阶段性高潮，也被认为是“第四次女权主义浪潮”。#MeToo运动在全球范围收到响应，翻出了许多陈年旧账，恩怨情仇，而这场运动并没有在团结中展开，对女性主义的认知在时代的不断更迭中，充斥着各种理念和意识形态的对峙。在社交媒体和数位时代孕育的新浪潮中，也开始出现顺势而为，用力过猛的形式主义。网络速食文化和种种暗涌的角力，往往令事件真相在一次次的道德声讨和狂欢中迷失。因此后网络时代的哺贝，选择了考古陪我们走过少女时代的宫崎骏电影，来建立醒脑距离。

EP2. Private Art Collection Reimagined with Sylvain Levy
In the midst of a global pandemic, we had the opportunity to chat with Sylvain Levy, collector and co-founder of DSL Collection (DSL), a seminal collection that narrates the development of Chinese contemporary art. Founded in 2005, DSL has been a trailblazer in experimenting and promoting virtual art experiences — in various forms and stages - the collection takes on the presence of a website to an underwater gallery in Second Life, to a VR museum and now a game in development.
Reflecting 30 years of collecting, Sylvain shares why and how digital transformation is vital for a private art collection and the yearning for art to generate social value and challenge the status quo in a time when social distancing has become a pervasive norm.

EP1. 法证建筑：大数据的真相探寻
「小题大做」播客第一期，我们讨论的法证建筑（FA）作为一个著名空间调查研究团体，常年工作在全球冲突的一线，并于2018年获得英国透纳奖提名。我们挑选了两个案例来讨论法证建筑（FA）是谁？法证的调查手法，是科学还是美学？法证建筑和艺术圈有什么关系？FA在数据的霸权时代给我们带来什么启发？
In our first Big Little Talk, we introduce how Forensic Architecture has used big data and machine learning to uncover dimensions of truth that is otherwise obscured by established narratives.
