Do we live in the age of the crisis of liberty?

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

jeudi 9 juillet 2020 • Durée 11:47

This one-off episode of the podcast is the audio version of a video presentation I prepared for the 'Ends of Autonomy' Colloquium, held over Zoom on the 7-9 July 2020 (UK dates). The original video version is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uflmg4NTz6A

The Enlightenment value of autonomy is facing unprecedented tensions today: my freedom to drive, fly, eat meat and have a large family are perceived as existential threats to others and as endangering the planet; my "autonomous" desires are curated, packaged and sold to me by a sophisticated market economic and increasingly algorithmic machinery; terrorist and extremist threats have normalised the state of exception; not to mention the centrality of freedoms of speech, association and conscience in the unfolding situations around COVID-19, Black Lives Matter and the relation of Hong Kong to mainland China.

This short presentation introduces the stakes of autonomy today and stands as an invitation to further reflection. Videos of individual colloquium presentations will be posted at https://bit.ly/theendsofautonomy

Vodcast: Samuel Beckett, Krapp's Last Tape Lecture 2020

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

dimanche 7 juin 2020 • Durée 46:35

This one-off episode of the podcast is the audio version of a video lecture I gave on Samuel Beckett's Krapp's Last Tape last week. The original video version is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1-Fbtna5PU

There is talk in university circles these days of the lecture format being dead. I think that's a naive view, like saying radio is dead because of the invention of television. So in addition to helping my students understand Beckett, I wanted to see what I could do with a 50 minute "lecture" slot under lockdown. I gave myself an afternoon and an evening to produce the finished product (which encoded overnight and was uploaded the next morning) from notes I had written in a previous year. After receiving feedback from students who watched the "lecture", I'm more convinced than ever that "young people" today are more than capable of sitting for 50 minutes and consuming information, providing it is presented with some thoughtfulness.
