Into the Metaverse

This week, Eric Kohn is joined by Dan Hugger and Dan Churchwell to discuss the theme of the Fall 2022 issue of Acton’s magazine, Religion & Liberty: What is the metaverse? What is its relationship to science fiction literature? And what is the impact of technology on society and culture, and how we should think through the consequences, intended and unintended, of technology and the metaverse on our lives?   Dan Hugger’s Fall 2022 R&L cover story is entitled, “The Metaverse Does Not Exist.”   Dan Churchwell’s review essay, which also appears in the issue, is entitled, “The Screen Is Not Your Master.” Subscribe to our podcasts    The Metaverse Does Not Exist | Dan Hugger, Religion & Liberty   The Screen Is Not Your Master | Dan Churchwell, Religion & Liberty (forthcoming)   Overload: Will any shows from the Golden Age of TV endure? | Sonny Bunch, The Weekly Standard   The changing face of social breakdown | Acton Line   The Changing Face of Social Breakdown | Yuval Levin, The Dispatch Hosted on Acast.
