E109| The Overton Window w/ Alex Ebert & Tim Adalin
Alex Ebert joins Tim Adalin for a dialogue exploring the political, social, psychological and metaphysical dynamics of the Overton window: the present limits of socially acceptable policy and opinion. Alex is an incidental musician and philosopher. His interest in Hegelian philosophy began (unbeknownst to him) more than a decade ago, with his development of a peculiar mathematical function (magnetic zeros). Said function is now the centerpiece of his Hegelian philosophy of sublation (freQ theory), and, for better or worse, serves as his platinum-selling band’s name.
