The Pixel Box Podcast

The Pixel Box Podcast is nothing more than a conversation between friends. Yet, we discovered that our view of the world has evolved together, and as such, we look forward each and every week to the exploration of all things interesting and compelling; the intellectual, aesthetic, philosophical, political, economic, cultural. Each week, Matt and Tyler bring to you a conversation motivated by two fundamental axioms. First: the search for truth is an indefinite and ongoing process... a journey. Second: if and when either of us feels that we have stumbled upon the truth, or some certainty that resembles the truth, we find it necessary to zoom in and consider whether or not we should be so hubristic and arrogant to suggest that we have discovered such a thing in the first place. This show is an examination of ideas. Each idea is but a pixel amongst a tapestry of other pixels. Each pixel is it's own window into reality, and each window operates in connection with and independently of the overall. Explore with us the contents of The Pixel Box; a universe of interconnected realities. Chances are, you'll find something inspiring or compelling along the way.

Episode 4: What exactly is the point of all this?

Back again for another round. Matt and Tyler deviate slightly from the previous subject matter and spend time reflecting on some more fundamental existential questions. What is human purpose? Where are we headed as a species? Is this time any different, more spectacular than any other time? Are we in more peril now than we have been in the past given how much progress we have made as a species? These topics and more on PBP Episode 4!

Episode 2: Pulling Truth through the Pinhead of Propaganda

Episode 2: Pulling Truth through the Pinhead of Propaganda

Matt and Tyler return to discuss developments on the conflict in Ukraine. We touch on how our understanding of the situation has evolved and examine it against the ubiquitous problem of how propaganda encourages and influences perception of events. Has the mainstream media done a better job this time relative to its track record of bending truth in the favor of predominant narratives? How does the flow of information influence the broader picture of economic and political forces? Is there a relationship between economics and the culture war?

As always, we proceed with open minds and discuss in good faith, with willingness to be convinced otherwise.

Episode 1: Framing War Against the Background of the Human Condition

Episode 1: Framing War Against the Background of the Human Condition

There's no better time to start a podcast that has been in the making for at least the last five years. Recorded on February 25th, 2022 as the new world order shifts before our eyes. We are unfortunately obligated to discuss the conflict currently raging. A war in the Eastern Theater between potentially dubious enemies justified with ambiguous reasons. How does such a war start? What are the conditions that allow such a thing to sustain? What lessons does it teach us about the rest of the world, as examiners and interpreters through our various Pixel Boxes? Can we trust the information coming from our screens?

Join us on the inaugural episode of The Pixel Box Podcast.
