Episode Two revolves around a question of what do you love when you love your machine? Joinedby an all-star cast of musicians and collaborators, hosts John and Libby Modern explore themechanics and metaphysics of technophilia in these viral times. All manner of machines are held upfor loving appreciation: Beautiful glitches and block chain deities. Social media embraces and thetingling textures of 16mm film. Fountain pens and the future of civilization. A child’s imagination ofthe iPad. The whip of the wind and its measurement. Insulin pumps. Automatic transmissions andcassette tapes that defy logic and entropy both. So put on your headphones on and you will hear alush array of samples, original beats, and immersive stories that address our frenzied infatuations andour nostalgia, our anxieties and our standing awestruck, and whether machines can ever truly lovethemselves. With appearances from Mark Taylor, Judith Weisenfeld, Elizabeth Wilson, Hillary Kaell,Sylvia Alajaji, Nathan Schneider, Tim Ingold, Maeva Kroll, and Holly Andrew, each episode ofMachines in Between beta tests a new application of the Rosary 1653, an experimental sonic-emotional-spiritual technology provided by series sponsor Infinity 88.It is a question that invites both pious longing and dark cosmic musing.‍
