This one was recorded back in 2012 on an iPhone in a room full of friends. After yelling over a coffee machine, eventually things calm down to a more sensible volume; and the issue of originality is explored with reference to Mark Twain, the book of Ecclesiastes, EverythingisaRemix, two kinds of time (chronos and kairos), two types of newness (neos and kainos), and a number of other things. Hopefully by the end of this thing, you'll have somewhat fresh perspective on how originality can function when plagiarism abounds and when there is "nothing new under the sun."
