Show notes

This week on Side Story, Sylvi and Jack delve into the spooky, scary world of New York City in Control: Resonant. They dig into the paranatural mystery, float around in the shifting gravity, and spend some time talking about the joy of a human-made multimedia bonanza in a world drowning in AI assets.
