Description
WARNING: This episode's audio quality is exceptionally, exceptionally bad. Special thanks to Will Kraus for cleaning it up. In future episodes, I’ll be using a better mic.Is a journalist who reports on virtual events that happen in a virtual world still a journalist? If you choose to present yourself as a rabbit online, does that say anything meaningful about who you really are? I spoke with Peter Ludlow, founder of The Alphaville Herald about living your life—fully online.Referenced articles:Raking muck in "The Sims Online" by Farhad Manjoo (Salon, 2003)Evangeline: Interview with a Child cyber-Prostitute in TSO by Peter Ludlow (2003)A Real-Life Debate On Free Expression In a Cyberspace City by Amy Harmon (2004)

Mini-sode: The Tokenization of Everything ft. Meta-Nomad: Meta-Nomad, the host of another one of my favorite podcasts, Hermitix, and I talk about cyclical backlashes, the frontiersmen of the Metaverse, walking the walk, and the importance of starting a garden. I cut this one a little short because towards the end, it got a little inside baseball and we went on a long tangent about a specific book. Initially, I was planning on this being released in written format, but was pleasantly surprised that the audio quality wasn't too too bad.
