Episode 4 of Strange Playgrounds, in which I ramble on about (amongst other subjects):

- Body horror and its relation to transhumanist science fiction.
- How horror fiction and media serves to express pervasive neuroses concerning our own bodies.
- General concerns regarding the current pervasion of a specifically poisonous form of nostalgia in culture and media.
- The artwork of H.R. Giger.
