SUMMARY:The Serious Side of Internet Absurdity
DESCRIPTION:Strange. Cringe. Viral. \nThe memers\, content creators\, livestreamers\, conspiracy theorists\, and influencers we are taught not to take seriously\, but somehow cannot peel our eyes away. These so-called unserious corners of the internet may understand contemporary India better than the people we are told to listen to: its aspirations\, anxieties\, and caste and class contradictions\, refracted through the internet’s strangest corners. \nWriter and filmmaker Anurag Minus Verma writes about it all in his new book\, The Great Indian Brainrot. In this session\, he is joined by journalist Priya Ramani. Together\, they navigate some of the most absurd and political corners of the internet. Though many of his examples arise from North India\, the questions they raise are relevant far beyond any one region.  \n
