episode S3 E4 Media Theory: Thinking Through Algorithms cover

Description

In this episode, we explore how social media algorithms shape what we see, feel, and think online. Using Marshall McLuhan’s idea “The medium is the message,” we uncover how algorithms have become the most powerful influence of our time. From addictive feeds and reward loops to the Cambridge Analytica scandal, we reveal how these invisible systems influence attention, emotions, and even reality itself. Understanding algorithms is the first step toward using social media more consciously - instead of being shaped by it.
