APPLE PODCASTS | SOUNDCLOUD | SPOTIFY
We’re back with another previously unreleased (archived) episode, this time from Spring 2020… since March never ended, apparently.
Join us for a continuation of our ‘Women as Robots’ series, as we discuss the hit indie film Ex Machina. Topics include killer sex toys, adaptations of the bluebeard myth, Silicon Valley bros, and our dissatisfaction over the gendering/exploitation of AI in media.
