What is labor-time, and what the hell does turning towards death mean? These are the questions. Part 2.
In this episode we start unpacking the strategy of making "work," strange. We start with the psychological weight carried by deeply held beliefs and why a sense of disruption may be necessary before any critical examination of concepts like work. We touch a bit on Freud, Heidegger, and the joys of German compound nouns.
