New Substack essay: "Losing Face in the Global Village: Why Kanye West masks his face (it's not out of shame)."

I have posted a new essay on Substack, with the title:
"Losing Face in the Global Village: Why Kanye West masks his face (it's not out of shame)."

Read it here:

I'm fascinated by masks, and in various forms they are all the rage now.
In this essay I probe why and how masks are used to protect a sense of self in today's digitally interconnected world.


So why is Kanye West wearing a balaclava in concert? Read my essay and start thinking.
