In this 5 part miniseries Tom Amarque interviews the swedish philosopher Alexander Bard on his worldview in general, and his book 'Digital Libido' in particular. Alexander Bard is a colourful character, being a proper philosopher, shaman, popstar and entrepeneur. But as a shaman-philosopher he looks deeply into our past, present and future, laying out new narratives on the digital era, which is just now unrfolding.
