EP227 Death of the Author

Scarif Scuttlebutt Podcast

Check out this week's discussion with Brad and Ro and thanks to follower Loki Jarson for suggesting the topic. We explore the concept of 'Death of the Author' in this deep dive where it's postulated once a work of art is out, it no longer belongs to the author. We explore the idea that the consumer attaches meaning to said project and that the author's original intent is no longer valid. Does it apply to long standing franchises like Star Wars where the original author is no longer in charge of the message? Do new authors need to refer back to the original text to formulate new stories? If they don't what may or may not be missing? We get into the weeds on this. Another Scarif deep dive. We hope you enjoy it. Got any thoughts on this episode? Reach us at [email protected] and tell us what you think.
