second episode of Visual Decay's podcast is out! i was interviewed. take a listen :)
The second episode of our podcast, hosted by @JustAKeever, is live. This time featuring @enemycharlie discussing the terror of being a twitter main character, gender expression online, parasociality, and what it means to be a poster. Give it a listen! open.substack.com/pub/visualdeca…
This week we will be posting a reflection on streaming and attention. Next week Jonas' next post on algorithms and gambling will be published.
If you've not yet listened to our first podcast episode, you should. visualdecay.substack.com/p/visual-decay…
Friendly reminder that this video essay by our contributor Justin rules and you should watch it because video games are cool (usually, sometimes). visualdecay.substack.com/p/choice-and-f…
Our contributor Jonas has written about Damien Chazelle's movie BABYLON, sobriety, and why movies are good. Movies Are Good, Actually open.substack.com/pub/visualdeca…
Give Justin's newest video essay a watch!
If you're looking for a distraction, I've got a new video essay out about character-driven storytelling, Choice and Forgiveness in, well, a shooter whose whole bit is being irreverent. I think this is a fun one! (link below)
Jonas just churned out some words on AI, Mission Impossible, and the dignity of creation. open.substack.com/pub/visualdeca…

Sam's essay goes a long way to clarifying what someone like me, Jonas, has come to appreciate about games as a non-gamer. I haven't played a game since Covid (Warzone) and before that I hadn't touched a game in a decade plus. Only in the last year have I begun to love games…

Video games are the dominant art-form of our time and they are basically impossible to describe to a normal person. That’s weird, right? substack-proxy.glitch.me/articles/open-…
Friendly reminder that @JustAKeever did this fantastic, interesting, and informative interview with @ckunzelman Give it a listen! visualdecay.substack.com/p/visual-decay…
Scout referenced this film in his prior Unloved on SHERLOCK HOLMES: A GAME OF SHADOWS, where he claimed 2011 is the best year in cinema, so it's super cool to see him devote direct attention to this movie. Also, Scout's video essays are some of the best out there.
