About This Podcast

Hey there, I'm Giacomo, and I'm fascinated by how the digital world is shaping our minds and our lives. That's why I created Ctrl+Attn, a podcast where I explore the ins and outs of the Digital Attention Economy. It's a personal journey for me, and I want to invite you to come along. Together, we'll delve into the psychology, the technology, and the business strategies that are constantly vying for our attention. Oh, and one more thing: the voices you'll hear in this podcast are generated using NotebookLM, an AI-powered tool that's helping me bring my ideas to life. It's a bit experimental, but I think you'll find it adds a unique touch to the show. So, if you're curious about the Digital Attention Economy and want to join me on this exploration, hit that subscribe button.
