Up For It

02.06.26
Aired on 02.06.26, 7:00am

Unpacking the rise of "main character syndrome" and radical individualism in the age of social media. Prompted by a recent Mitski concert at the Sydney Opera House, we discuss what happens when everyone sees themselves as the protagonist, from filming entire gigs to calling strangers "NPCs" online. Is social media changing the way we behave in public, or are we just becoming more aware of tendencies that have always been there?

aja monet at Oxford Art Factory, October 25th - tickets here.
