Fractal Radio | Episode 10 – World Wide Problem Domain

On August 23, 2018 By Alex V. WeirIn Philosophy, Technology, UncategorizedLeave a comment

I stall for time! In the coming days, I will post a fairly in-depth analysis of internet issues and the recent Vanity Fair Article about Tim Berners-Lee and his new project called ‘SOLID.’

For now, I just give a brief overview of the problem domain and my first impressions of the article.

Fractal Radio| Episode 9 – Jointly Venturing into Vanity Fair

On August 23, 2018August 23, 2018 By Alex V. WeirIn Philosophy, Psychology, Uncategorized1 Comment

I just received an issue of Vanity Fair as a free gift for my subscription to The New Yorker. I discuss some of the articles therein and do a series of riffs on various topics including those found in my most recent essay: Pop Psych Perils

Edit: Trink bis auf dem grund translates ‘to the bottom’ not without a reason. I’m pretty sure that’s correct. But I already messed up once so maybe better you don’t trust my attempts at worldliness.

Fractal Radio| Episode 7 – Caught in a Storm with Goethe and Bach (Music and Ideas)

On August 21, 2018 By Alex V. WeirIn Philosophy, UncategorizedLeave a comment

Lucky that I was close to a Gazebo when the downpour started. Gave me an opportunity for some nice atmospherics and I recorded a couple of musical bits for you. Which I used as a transition to talk about Goethe, Bach, enlightenment values, and make a brief critique of modern nostrums regarding prose.

Fractal Radio|Episode 6 – Prager U – Manly Man Reaction of Manliness

On August 19, 2018 By Alex V. WeirIn Philosophy, Psychology, UncategorizedLeave a comment

Came across an annoying Prager U clip oversimplifying the role of men in society.

Am I a triggered snowflake for reacting or am I manly manhood defined for standing up and voicing my opinion? You decide. No, screw that, I decide because

RAAAAAAAAAAAH! Look at my pecs. Yo.

Fractal Radio| Episode II – Friday Fuzz

“Yeah Laurie Anderson’s music is more coherent” -Moldovan Peasant-

There is music! If one can call it that.

My internet was being slow so I guess it’s more Saturday fuzz at this point.

Just a bit of fun where I discuss the woes of setting up a non-private domain and make a couple of jam tracks.

July 4th 2018 – Celebrating the Constitution (Vlog)

On July 4, 2018 By Alex V. WeirIn Philosophy, UncategorizedLeave a comment

This Independence Day finds me stumbling across a recounting of a letter Washington wrote home during the Revolutionary War. I use the content of that letter as a springboard to discuss the merits of the revolution, the value of the constitution, and what it means to truly esteem those things.

Celebrations and fireworks are great but true appreciation and real patriotism can only come from the daily informed participation of citizens.
