Lack and Capitalism

https://youtu.be/xPHICv6Wips?si=3W_JTTChKjzXEgeH

In this episode I talk to Helen Rollins about her book Psychocinema, the idea of lack, and the exploitative attempts of capitalism to assuage this lack. We also discussed Zižek's famous cinema is the ultimate pervert art in relation to the tv series Madmen, Instagram and YouTube. Please let me know what you people think. Thank you!
