About this episode
In this episode of Commute and Compute, we unpack how memes act as cultural encryption—resisting surveillance, defying translation, and building tribe in a digital age of manipulation. From DARPA’s failed attempts to extract meaning to the meme-fueled rise of Bitcoin and Nostr, this is a deep dive into the power of compressed, coded laughter to expose lies, signal loyalty, and break the system.
