    15: Snapewives: Fandom Turned Religious

    This week’s episode is all about the niche community of Snapewives/Snapeists — a corner of the early 2000’s Harry Potter fandom that religiously engaged and transformed the narratives of Severus Snape. Following Henry Jenkins framework of fandom analysis, we delve into the interesting dynamics of online communities interactions with fictional texts...even to the point of religious devotion.

    12: Futurism: A Cult of the New

    Speed, violence, war, and hot new tech! This weeks episode is all about FUTURISM — the artistic movement of the 20th century that foregrounded the tone of technological accelerationism today, all with a splash of misogyny (fun!) Tune in as I talk about poetic cult manifestos and get increasingly more insecure about how I pronounce words!

    9: The Geeks Manifesto (Hackers Pt. I)

    Phreaks, geeks, and sneaky MIT undergrads. This week, we’re talking about hackers. From campus pranks to phone phreaks to writing manifestos in a jail cell, the hackers have a colorful history. This is part one of badly explained history around hackers, featuring an excerpt of my Computer x Hacker Nerd fanfiction and, finally, you guessed it, a permanent Webpage of the Week segment theme song, composed by my very own kin (shout out to Diego—love ya...I guess). This show was broadcast on OAR 105.4FM Dunedin - oar.org.nz and made thanks to the support of NZ on Air.
