S1E6
Season 1 - Episode 6 - The boron rods of the social media chain reaction
We explore the comparison between a nuclear reaction and social media. Through the great metaphor of HBO's documentary "Chernobyl", and its fifth episode, we learn about what happens in a nuclear reactor: uranium, boron rods, positive void coefficient, negative temperature coefficient, and the necessary balance between all elements. Have we reached a boiling point, in our practice of social media? Who will be the ways we can keep this new medium in check?
