💻🍄🧙🏼♂️ 211 - Adam Aronovich on A Cultural Anthropology for The Psychedelic Internet
Subscribe and review at Apple Podcasts and/or Spotify. Or wherever!
This week on Future Fossils we pierce the veil with Adam Aronovich, cultural anthropologist and psychedelic integration therapist, to talk about the strange brew of web-connected healing and web-inflicted paranoia and delusions of grandeur, conspiracy epistemics, how people are being treated as robots, and robots are being treated as people, and engaging reality directly versus engaging through the manipulation of symbols. Among other things! It’s a perfect treat for tricky times…
