  • From Superman to Systems

    From Superman to Systems
    Apr 17 2026

    Superman gets a global “anniversary,” gamers are being recruited into real-world systems, and video games keep chasing a version of realism that doesn’t quite exist. This week, Media Mothership drifts through fandom rituals, game design oddities, and the strange ways fictional worlds start to feel real.
    Explore the craft behind Battlefield’s sound design, why pausing a game isn’t as simple as it seems, what Dune: Awakening is doing differently, and how actors like Peter Capaldi and Mark Hamill think about who really owns a character.
    This episode was recorded live at Edge Radio 99.3FM studios in Hobart Tasmania, and first aired on 17 April 2026.

    From research on “cognitive surrender” in AI use to failures with AI-written criticism, the discussion considers whether thinking itself is being outsourced.
