Guy Debord called it the spectacle: a life no longer lived, only represented. This episode of Radio Culture reads Sky Volnova's "Digital Dust" through that lens — a world where the simulacrum has quietly replaced lived reality. We trace the snow of likes as it settles over the city's dreams, and set the smile-mask against the emptiness it's built to hide. The conversation follows what we're calling the necropathy of the cliché: not death exactly, but a slow embalming — the image outliving the moment it claims to preserve. Behind the permanent staging of the self lies a narcissism that reads less as vanity than as fear, and a real question about what it costs the modern mind to be endlessly visible and never truly seen. Against that sterile visibility, the episode makes its case for opacity — the right to remain, occasionally, unphotographed.
