Minor Compositions Podcast Season 2 Episode 4 Wages Against Dreamwork<\/b><\/p>\n

In this episode of Minor Compositions, the usual format is playfully overturned as Richard Gilman-Opalsky stages a friendly \u201crevolt,\u201d taking over hosting duties to interview Stevphen Shukaitis about The Wages of Dreamwork<\/i><\/a>, co-written with Joanna Figiel. What unfolds is less a conventional author interview than a comradely and reflective exchange on the conditions, contradictions, and possibilities of creative labor under contemporary capitalism. Moving between humor and critical analysis, the conversation explores dreamwork as both exploitation and potential: tracing how imagination, desire, and affect are captured within systems of value, while also gesturing toward forms of refusal, collectivity, and insurgent creativity. The episode places the book in relation to broader traditions of radical thought and publishing, unfolding as an open and informal exchange moving easily between discussion and reflection, and between critique and lived comradery.<\/p>\n
