Las manifestaciones estéticas que surgieron alrededor de la revolución rusa de 1917 obsesionan a Julia porque, si bien los proyectos fracasaron, las formas no nos abandonan. En esta conversación exploramos cómo el arte está implicado en imaginar futuros, y hasta qué punto eso es posible hoy en día. Hablamos de las paradojas de la (contra)cultura, sobre cómo esta puede ser al mismo tiempo transformadora y excluyente, y acerca de la circulación inesperada de ciertas estéticas. A Julia lo pueden encontrar como @sputnikon3 en Twitter. Pueden encontrarnos en su aplicación de podcasts favorita, o como @expertosdesillon en Instagram, @expertosillon en Twitter, o también pueden escribirnos a expertosdesillon@gmail.com REFERENCIAS: Vladimir Mayakovsky; proletkult o proletárskaya kultura; poesía autotélica; El acorazado Potemkin de Sergei Eisenstein; Realismo capitalista: ¿no hay otra alternativa? De Mark Fisher; Mi historia sin mí (I’m not there) dirigida por Todd Haynes; Christy Wampole; Capital is dead de McKenzie Wark; Homo sovieticus de Svetlana Aleksiévich; Bertold Brecht.

Christy Wampole is an assistant professor in the department of French and Italian at Princeton, and the author of “Rootedness: The Ramifications of a Metaphor” and “The Other Serious: Essays for the New American Generation.” She has also written for the New York Times and the New Yorker.

Back in 2013, in The New York Times, essayist Christy Wampole declared that we are in a moment of “the essayification of everything.” She noted how not only the genre, but also the genres inventor, Michel de Montaigne, seemed to be popping up everywhere and she saw the essay “a talisman of our times.” Why? What about the essay struck her as so current, so important? Wampole thought that “the genre and its spirit provide an alternative to the dogmatic thinking that dominates much of social and political life in contemporary America.” The essay is the opposite of the rant, the polemic, the click-bait, the crude headline, and the stupid sound-byte. The essay invites complexity, contradiction, nuance–all of those qualities that mark the real experience of our public and private lives. Essays want to reckon with the rich immensity that is in us and is us. Now, if you're like me and feel despair about the degree of dogmatic thinking that now dominates our social and political life in 2017, if you hate the fact that, say, a hastily composed tweet by a recently elected official can clog our public debate and prevent us from addressing issues that demand attention to complexity, contradiction, and nuance, then I encourage you to check out a new collection of essays edited by Marcia Aldrich. Its entitled Waveform: Twenty-First-Century Essays by Women (University of Georgia Press, 2016) and includes many of the best essayists in America. In essays by Cheryl Strayed, Roxanne Gay, Dana Tommasino, and Aldrich herself, the essay achieves its fullest potential as Wampole described it in 2013. The essay's spirit, she proclaimed, “resists closed-ended, hierarchical thinking and encourages both writer and reader to postpone their verdict on life. It is an invitation to maintain the elasticity of mind and to get comfortable with the worlds inherent ambivalence. And, most importantly, it is an imaginative rehearsal of what isn't but could be.”   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Em meados da década de 1990, David Foster Wallace já dizia que a ironia estava arruinando a nossa cultura. Uma discussão que, recentemente, voltou à tona com o texto “Como viver sem ironia”, da professora Christy Wampole no New York Times. No Braincast 116, debatemos a influência da ironia na sociedade atual, sua onipresença na internet e o modo como temos nos comportado em qualquer embate, principalmente se for online. Sobrou também, é claro, para os grandes baluartes do modo de vida irônico: os hipsters. > 02m10 Comentando os Comentários

Só que a tecnologia continua avançando, as pessoas mudam junto e as marcas ficam perdidas perseguindo a próxima grande novidade. Este workshop irá mostrar como usar redes sociais como plataforma para gerar resultados de negócio para marcas, sob uma nova lente que este mercado vive há poucos anos: as redes sociais agora são mídia de massa. Mais do que “falar com os influenciadores” vamos encarar cada pessoa como um influenciador para seu grupo de amigos, com as marcas contando as histórias certas para cada uma destas pessoas. >> INSCREVA-SE! ======== Críticas, elogios, sugestões para braincast@brainstorm9.com.br ou no facebook.com/brainstorm9.
