Crisis in Perception · Apr 2, 2026 · 41m

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

Author: Philip Ball

This episode explores The Beauty of Chemistry: Art, Wonder, and Science by Philip Ball as a systems-level analysis of how chemical order 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.
