Techtonic with Mark Hurst | WFMU

Mark Hurst

Booking Overview

This is an interview-focused technology and digital-culture show featuring creators, authors, thinkers, and community or labor organizers rather than celebrity personalities. Agencies could credibly pitch technology ethicists, digital-rights advocates, videogame creators, authors, and organizers with distinctive perspectives on how technology affects society; booking difficulty is likely medium because the show is editorially selective but not centered on high-profile celebrities.
