On this weeks podcast we are joined by writer, performer and futurist Amelia Kallman to discuss her autobiographical book “Diary of a Shanghai Showgirl” and her work in the tech industry. The discussion begins with social media and the often-detrimental effects of the internet on our collective mental health. Theo and Charles learn about some very exciting new tech on the horizon and the resurgence of an older, perhaps slightly misunderstood, one with the return of the smart glass.Amelia then talks of her experience opening the first burlesque club in China, getting to grips with Chinese culture, the obstacles she encountered starting a business in a country emerging from communism and giving us a peek behind the scenes of the world of burlesque.Recorded in London's Camden Town.You can now get in touch with the [email protected]@vialuccimediaAudio & Visual Production by Kerem Isik.This show is Part of the PodcastWorld.org network Hosted on Acast.
