In this episode we explore how dystopian stories share the structure of Plato's famous "allegory of the Cave," and we look into various possible meanings and warnings to be learned from that story.
Original art and music.
Includes snippets of "Gestation" from the game "Cave Story" ("Doukutsu Monogatari"). It has no relation to Plato's cave, but it is a beautiful game released for free by its creator. This is our little homage.. Thanks to cavestory.org. (You can download the music and the game.)
