The Creative Flight with Ivy Malik

This one’s different. I bring you into a thought experiment where I sit down with four cultural giants—David Hume, Pierre Bourdieu, Susan Sontag, and Dave Hickey—in a fictional panel, debating one question: What is taste, and does it still matter in a world of AI?

In this episode, I share how I gained my first 10,000 followers on Instagram, and what actually made it stick.
