About this listen

 Start with An abrupt Beginning. Living Dangerously is a lyrical manifesto about the fragile marriage between humanity and its digital reflection. In poetic, charged prose, Juan Gabriel Havas guides readers through the evolution of consciousness — from the first cave paintings to the infinite scroll — revealing how DATA has become both our offspring and our god. This visionary work of literary nonfiction and philosophical prose examines the cost of progress and the quiet extinction of the human spirit in the algorithmic age.Juan Havas Social Sciences

    Let’s be reborn —
    in a mutual Nirvana
    of disagreement.
    And agreement.

    Let’s share souls —
    like pancakes.

    With — like Chilly Willy the Penguin would say:

    “More butter, more syrup.
    Plenty of butter, plenty of syrup.”

    The best episode of life.

    Joy.
    And disappointment.

    Like Viagra.

    Its originality – the mixing of profanity, absurd imagery, and political polemic – is a strength for the rightaudience. But it may be “too dangerous” for conventional publishing (the sexualcontent and profanity are quite extreme) except via contests/anthologiestailored to risky work. Overall, the piece is very original (agenre-bender essay), with limited mainstream saleability but strong potentialas a standout contest entry or special-issue essay.

    Living Dangerously i s highly original but also polarizing. Its offbeat,hybrid form would likely struggle in mainstream literary journals that favor polished traditional essays. However, its bracing voice and topicality(data/privacy) give it a niche appeal. Such an essay could attract attention incontest-driven or academic venues that celebrate experimentalnonfiction.
