If you have been enjoying Mimeographzine AF...

And I hope you have, I want to invite you to check out my new Podcast "Stuff is Contingent With Andy and Matt." Every two weeks me and my buddy Matt Brown will share about an hour of conversation digging into the gritty details and forgotten possibilities of technology, media and culture. We try to be relevant to the moment, but not too laser-focused on the last 30 seconds of The Discourse, taking a broader view of history and engaging with literature and ideas that might be otherwise left behind.

This week we talk about AI, something we will probably come back to. I cut my teeth on Copyright Law and Remix Culture and Matt studied under Paul Churchland, the guy who literally wrote the book on theory of mind and the kind of neural network models of the brain that power LLMs and their kin, so we have a bunch to say about this.

You can check out our conversation about AI, remix, creativity, Zazzles the chicken and famines of song below and subscribe to "Stuff is Contingent with Andy and Matt" where ever you get your podcasts!

Tune in again in two weeks for a conversation about AI and education and two weeks after that for "Capitalism is Contingent" a discussion of Red Plenty.

We're getting ready to have guests later in the year! I may be hassling some of you about that!
