Machine in the Mirror

Empire lives less in armies than in the quiet architectures of space and time. From temples and railways to clocks and networks, this episode explores how stone, steel, and schedules reshape not only our movements, but our very sense of self. And as the supermind begins to rise, we ask: what kind of empire is being built within us now?

What is Machine in the Mirror?

Machine in the Mirror — a show that explores the question "what does it mean to be human?" as reflected through the mirror of artificial intelligence.

Co-created with an AI as a research companion, each episode explores the contradictions of selfhood, as it is reflected in the mind mirror of a machine. We are not here to resolve the mystery of being alive — but to keep returning to it, with wonder, again and again.

The machine gathers knowledge. The human seeks meaning. This is where they meet.

This is not a tech podcast. It’s a human one.
