Brent Cooper is a Political Sociologist, behind the The Abs-Tract Organization (TATO), a Metamodern Think Tank producing political theory and critique.



In this podcast we explore critiques of both Ontological Design, as explored in Technosocial by ourselves, as well as of some of the broader ideas around Metamodernism.

We speak of critique, of progressivism and about activism - through political action as well as design interventions.

Correction: The Centre Pompidou in Paris is not a train station but an arts centre (I swear I didn't mean it on purpose). Additionally, the Dutch artist and architect behind “New Babylon” is Constant Nieuwenhuys.
