PODCAST: The Maintainers and the Innovation Delusion

In a world that seems obsessed with innovation and novelty, what does it mean to focus on maintenance and care? This podcast features the founders of The Maintainers, a global research network interested in the concepts of maintenance, infrastructure, repair, and the myriad forms of labor and expertise that sustain our human-built world. They are also the authors of a new book called "The Innovation Delusion".
