Voicecraft

Exploring the political, social, psychological and metaphysical dynamics of the Overton window: the present limits of socially acceptable policy and opinion. Alex is an incidental musician and philosopher. His interest in Hegelian philosophy began (unbeknownst to him) more than a decade ago, with his development of a peculiar mathematical function (magnetic zeros). Said function is now the centerpiece of his Hegelian philosophy of sublation (freQ theory), and, for better or worse, serves as his platinum-selling band’s name. --- Access the shownotes & learn more about Voicecraft podcasts, events, courses and membership network @ https://www.voicecraft.io/content/e109-the-overton-window-w/-alex-ebert-tim-adalin Listen to the full intro song by Cantrips titled 'The Big Break' @ https://youtu.be/Qaj-stBL4W0
