Mondo Reale: a Podcast by Tlon

What is the World? What appears to us and what eludes us? Can it be seen outside of a frame, that is, an instrument that both highlights the work and separates it from the rest? Mondo Reale is conceived as a landing place in our mysterious everyday, and explores the real as if it were a reverie. In this way, the contemplative and aesthetic experience around knowledge provokes a mesmerizing wonder towards reality. "The sciences make us acquire many certainties, but we have discovered during the 20th century countless domains of uncertainty," wrote Edgar Morin. Mondo Reale brings the archipelago of certainty into a new light, thus succeeding in revealing the ocean of uncertainty that we all inhabit.
