Covington and the Emergent Collective Intelligence (PODCAST)

In the latest TEHNC Podcast, host Jonathan Steigman and I explore the recent incident where a 16-year-old kid from Covington Catholic School faced off with a Native American elder on the Mall in Washington and how it unfolded on social media with amazing speed. Jonathan and I were struck by how the many different perceptual layers were quickly peeled back, and we unpack the event and surrounding social media whirlwind exploring how we may be witnessing a new collective intelligence being birthed, one that transcends centralized legacy media.
