概要

What if there is no reality behind the images? What if the copy has replaced the original so completely that asking what's "real" has become meaningless?

In this episode, we explore Baudrillard's most famous work: the book Neo carries in The Matrix, hollowed out to hide contraband. Appropriate, since Baudrillard argues we're all living in something like the Matrix, except there's no outside to wake up to.

Simulation has replaced reality. Maps precede territories. Disneyland exists to make the rest of America seem real by comparison.

It's dense, playful, and infuriating. Baudrillard isn't entirely serious, but he's not joking either.
