FODI: The In-Between | 03 | Lee Vinsel & Tyson Yunkaporta | A gradual decline into disorder
Manage episode 320938915 series 2661077
Lee Vinsel and Tyson Yunkaporta speak with Ann Mossop about the passing age, apocalypses, and the cyclical nature of eras. Their conversation is anchored in language: both speak of systems, entropy, the roles of maintainers or custodians, and the machines and languages of capitalism. Tyson explains entropy by connecting an incident of Aboriginal people spearing Dutchmen centuries ago to the modern-day experiences of colonialism, and Lee speaks of entropy as the natural breaking down of systems.
Lee Vinsel is an associate professor of Science, Technology, and Society at Virginia Tech.
Tyson Yunkaporta is an Aboriginal scholar, founder of the Indigenous Knowledge Systems Lab at Deakin University in Melbourne.
Produced by The Festival of Dangerous Ideas, The Ethics Centre and Audiocraft.
