Description

Stuart and Andie talk with Jason Silva, philosopher, futurist, and host of National Geographic’s Brain Games, and the Shots of Awe video channel. Their talk is a wild ride through the nature of reality. It’s a mind-melting mind-meld of meanings as burners and as earthlings. It’s a hint on how to — as Danger Ranger says — “wash your own brain." They discuss life, death and how a bicycle can induce synchronicity. They explore how psychedelics cause pivotal mental states of suggestibility to brainwash ourselves for the better, or succumb to delusional thinking, or both.They schedule nowness and eternity. They try to control their ecstatic surrender. And if you listen closely, you may hear a love story hidden between all the philosophy quotations. Finally, they explore key ingredients to Burning Man’s secret sauce that doesn’t exist. But then again, does existence even exist? thisisjasonsilva.comJason Silva: Shots of Awe (youtube)Burning Man Synchronicities: What are "Playa Moments"? (youtube)LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
