A podcast deep-scrolling into XR, AI, and the future of hanging out in the spatial internet
WebRTC BackRooms Podcast
In the podcast, we slip behind the polished interfaces of contemporary tech and AI to uncover the disquieting depths beneath. Wandering through online spaces and digital cultures, we turn WebRTC protocols into peer-to-peer spaces of gathering — an alternative beyond mainstream platforms. The virtual space where we meet favors opacity over exposure and rejects the logic of the clearnet, data extraction, and the surveillance systems shaping today’s major corporate platforms. The format unfolds as a series of virtual rooms, or backrooms, created for each guest. Here, we meet investigative artists, researchers, writers, and architects, and together we attempt to trace the uncanny ways in which we inhabit an increasingly tangled world.
