The Suffocating Void: The Flesh Machine, by Kevin Tucker

Описание: The second part of Kevin Tucker's "The Suffocating Void", this segment covers the rapid adoption of the Internet and cellular devices, shifting baselines for the normalization of these new technologies into every aspect of our lives, Lewis Mumford's views on "organic machines", and the desires of engineers and technocrats towards the creation of a "new flesh", completely separating the individual from their animality.

Lovingly narrated by Ryan Morgan of Misery Signals/Paper Crane Audio. All rights belong to Kevin Tucker and Black and Green Press.
