Specific Knowledge: Philosophy for the New Wave

Hosted by Devin Marty, Specific Knowledge: Philosophy for the New Wave is a podcast that digs into the messy, fascinating process of how we get things done together when the ground is constantly shifting. It’s built on the idea that the most valuable knowledge is often scattered, temporary, and deeply personal. This show moves beyond simple tech hype to examine the underlying philosophies of coordination and creation in our digital age. You’ll hear conversations that connect the dots between technological shifts, market forces, and social change, with a particular lens on concepts like creative destruction. The role of blockchain and other decentralizing tools comes up not as a panacea, but as a concrete example of how we might architect new systems for trust and collaboration. Each episode is an exploration of the mental models and practical frameworks needed to navigate and, more importantly, to help build what comes next. It’s for anyone who feels that the old playbooks are breaking down and is curious about the emerging blueprints for a different kind of economy and society. This isn't about predictions; it's about understanding the principles that will shape the next wave of innovation and social organization. Tune in for a thoughtful, often challenging, look at the ideas that will define our collective future.
