The Human Voice with Bob Hutchins

What if we have been focusing on the wrong things to define what’s ‘human’ and ‘normal’?

What if a shift in the definition of healthy human behavior and how time is best spent can be realized through our technology?

This in no way minimizes or re-frames my concerns that I still have about AI or screen time in general. But several things can be true at the same time, and as a tech optimist, I am hopeful we can find our way forward in better and more beneficial ways.

This is an audio version ( Me Reading) of my recent Substack post.

My longtime friend Mike Monokian and I talk about the recent loss of his wife, Clairie. His life journey, the joy, the pain, and the hope in it all.

My favorite quote from Mike- "when I lose my sense of humor I lose my way."

This is a fascinating discussion with Paul Levinson, an American author, singer-songwriter, and professor of communications and media studies at Fordham University in New York City. His novels, short fiction, and non-fiction works have been translated into sixteen languages. We discuss his relationship with Marshall McLuhan, time travel, Media Ecology, and why understanding the effects and power of media is so important.
