Summary:
In this episode of the From 78 podcast, recorded on Thursday, December 4th, I discuss the subjective experience of time and how it intertwines with social spaces and technology. After a hectic Thanksgiving with my family, I delve into the significance of physical places in making meaningful human connections, contrasting them with today's digital interactions. I highlight a particular episode of Craig Mod's newsletter 'Ridgelines' that emphasizes the atmosphere of jazz kisaten in Japan and their unique social dynamics. I also share observations from my own life, pondering how modern technology and remote work have transformed communal spaces like cafes, affecting how people interact today. Suggestions and reflections on this transformation invite listeners to consider their own experiences and interactions in such spaces.
