Listen to an Experiment in Academic Innovation: Sonic Conclusion for the Essay Collection "Moral Dimensions of Humour"

"Why humour? Why AI? And what is a sonic conclusion?" (a sound alternative to written scholarship by Helen Wolfenden from Macquarie University, Jacob Craig and Benjamin Nickl from The University of Sydney & Mark Rolfe from The University of New South Wales)

A bit of context for the listener: We, the editors of "Moral Dimensions of Humour", present a unique audio experience instead of the traditional format most books offer for their concluding sections. Our decision for audio stems from its visceral impact, offering a sensory journey akin to humour itself. The conclusion's deliberate construction here as a mix between audio-play and podcast interview reflects humour's constructed nature and its intersection with morality, echoing throughout human culture. From political satire to online meme-activism, humour can be a potent tool for social commentary, revealing complexities in our world. Join us in this new experimental space and listen to uncover the multifaceted nature of humour and its profound impact on society!
