Reviving Virtue: Pragmatism and Perspective in Modern Times
Society & Culture:Philosophy
IN this episode cross posted on Youtube, I share an article I recently published on Medium about the intersection of AI and music. I lay out the philosophical implications of generative AI and the disassembly of music into modular components for capital circulation and its implications on artistic expression and freedom. I argue for the importance of preserving authentic, embodied musical experiences and the role of genuine musical communities in safeguarding the transformative power of music. Drawing on the works of philosophers such as Peter Sloterdijk, Anna Kornbluh, Hartmut Rosa, and others, I explore the concept of primordial resonance and how nurturing contextualized, embodied musical spaces is crucial for maintaining the vital link between our primal musical enchantments and the public sphere. Join me as I delve into why these spaces, where freedom takes root, are essential for reclaiming the intimate, individualized experience of hearing that is so fundamental to our well-being and the future of music in the age of AI.
