Resilience: Rebounds & Blocks

This week we deep dive into the world of resilience. From Francis Bacon’s musings of how sound bounces off walls, to the proposal that colouring can help block the nasty world around us: we explore the etymology, the history, and some implications of the resilience turn. Even our game of ‘What Do You Hate More’ was (unintentionally) inspired by the notions of risk, vulnerability, and recovery. So do what you do, ‘cuz we’re all just trying to cope. The book Phil mentioned is titled ‘The Resilience Divident: Being Strong in a World Where Things Go Wrong’ by Judith Rosin: We thank Bonjay for kindly allowing us to play their songs: Ingenue, Stumble, Creepin, Shotta.
