Digital Poetry
Techno-Philosophy
In his Shots of Awe videos, Jason Silva chases his inspiration addiction as he explores the complex systems of society, technology and human existence and discusses the truth and beauty of science in a form of existential jazz. He’s been described as a techno-philosopher and a poet for the digital age.
This module explores the similarities between Jason and the 19th Century Romantic poets and also explores the nature of the poetic sublime.
