Summary

For all its achievements, Artificial Intelligence has taken control of us, and its impositions now outweigh its conveniences. This is why people also hear “Red Jimmy” when they hear the Ground Zero theme - advanced digital broadcast equipment is feeding the sound to you, and the ear is picking up on the interpretation of what is being broadcast. We are integrating so quickly into a technological hyper-reality that the simulation is far more real than the mediocrity of the real. On this special episode of Ground Zero, Clyde Lewis talks with music pioneer and innovator Thomas Dolby about THE LOUDSPEAKER SPOKE UP AND SAID - RED JIMMY. The original broadcast was on August 13, 2020.
