Not every conversation about internet culture has to be a warning. In this episode of Social Sleuth, we take a more reflective turn with Andy Sahlstrom, interactive technology engineer, inventor, and kinetic artist, who brings a genuinely personal lens to what the digital landscape does to us, and for us.
We talk through Andy's evolving project Shampoooty, how nostalgia functions in an age of infinite content, and what it looks like to engage with technology creatively rather than passively. The conversation covers both the personal impact of digital life and the broader social textures it's reshaping.
A warmer, more reflective episode, and a good reminder that the internet isn't only something that happens to us.
Topics: nostalgia and the internet, digital culture, creative technology, interactive art, kinetic art, technology and identity, internet and personal experience, social media and memory
