Narrative and Experimentation
In collaboration with the Graphics team, I interviewed 5 AI practitioners — an industry godfather, an artist, an ethicist, a writer and a computer scientist — to share their thoughts and feelings about our AI moment and its future. With the help of Sagans, a European art collective specializing in AI-generated video, we fed the interviews into an AI-generated video and published the results here.
History This Week: The First Lady Who Tamed the Bull Moose
September 14, 1901. Midnight in the Adirondacks. A pounding knock at the door jolts Theodore and Edith Roosevelt awake. William McKinley is dead. Hours later, Theodore will be sworn in as the youngest president in U.S. history. But Edith barely flinches—her diary that day notes her children’s sniffles before her husband’s rise to power.
Who was this woman who grew up alongside Theodore, helped shape his presidency, reinvented the role of First Lady, and yet tried to erase her own story from the record?
History This Week: When Nazis Killed Nazis in the Middle of America
August 7, 1943. Off the coast of Venezuela, forty-three German sailors plunge from their sinking U-boat into shark-infested waters, and are pulled out by their enemy - the United States.
The Germans think the worst is behind them. Instead, they’re headed for a POW camp in the American heartland, where life will actually be pretty comfortable. They play soccer, harvest corn, eat well… until they turn on each other. How did Nazi prisoners of war end up murdering each other on U.S. soil? And what does American justice look like when applied to the enemy?
History This Week: Operation Mincemeat Revisited | Episode + Bonus Interview with Natasha Hodgson
When we first aired "Operation Mincemeat" back in 2020, it was a daring WWII thriller that felt almost too wild to be true. Now, it’s not just history — it’s a hit Broadway musical. This week, we're revisiting our original episode about the ingenious Allied ruse that helped turn the tide of the war. And we’re adding a twist: an interview with Natasha Hodgson, co-creator and star of Operation Mincemeat, the musical. She joins us to talk spies, songs, and how one of the strangest wartime plots ever ended up on stage.
