Crisis in Perception · Apr 8, 2026 · 47m

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.

Author: Jaron Lanier

This episode explores Who Owns the Future? by Jaron Lanier as a systems-level analysis of how digital network architecture influences behavior, belief, and institutional outcomes.

By focusing on incentive architecture rather than personalities or events, the episode shows why these systems persist — and how they connect to larger economic, political, and cultural structures.
