been getting complaints that I've not been putting out podcasts quickly enough so I did one more recording for the day with the magnificent @sagar__dubey
we talked about India, which it turns out is as fractal a topic for conversion as it is a nationhttps://soundcloud.com/user-557955426/episode-11-eigenrobot-vs-sagar …

in particular we spent a lot of time on the topic of Sagar's journey from India through South America and New York to Helsinki, and what similar travels look like for other Indians of his generation, and what makes all of this possible

Sagar is an incredibly engaging storyteller and conversationalist, and I was particularly moved by his phlegmatic view of democratic chaos and his hope for the future of the United States. I think he is a better American than most people inside our borders (many such cases)

also uh turns out Indian GDP is probably massively lowballed, and did you know it's already higher than the UK's GDP even as measured? just something to keep in the back of your mind

overall, was just a blast talking with him, and I find myself leaning toward Indofuturism as a plausible and actually-pretty-good outcome of the 21st century and with that I'm going to sleep until noon, take care all :)
