I, Stewart Alsop, welcomed Ben Roper, CEO and founder of Play Culture, to this episode of Crazy Wisdom for a fascinating discussion. We kicked things off by diving into Ben's reservations about AI, particularly its impact on creative authenticity, before exploring his innovative project, Play Culture, which aims to bring tactical outdoor games to adults. Ben also shared his journey of teaching himself to code and his philosophy on building experiences centered on human connection rather than pure profit.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:55 Ben Roper on AI's impact on creative authenticity and the dilution of the author's experience.03:05 The discussion on AI leading to a "simulation of experience" versus genuine, embodied experiences.08:40 Stewart Alsop explores the nuances of authenticity, honesty, and trust in media and personal interactions.17:53 Ben discusses how trust is invaluable and often broken by corporate attempts to feign it.20:22 Ben begins to explain the Play Culture project, discussing the community's confusion about its non-monetized approach, leading into his philosophy of "designing for people, not money."37:08 Ben elaborates on the Play Culture experience: creating tactical outdoor games designed specifically for adults.45:46 A comparison of Play Culture's approach with games like Pokémon GO, emphasizing "gentle technology."58:48 Ben shares his thoughts on the future of augmented reality and designing humanistic experiences.1:02:15 Ben describes "Pirate Gold," a real-world role-playing pirate simulator, as an example of Play Culture's innovative games.1:06:30 How to find Play Culture and get involved in their events worldwide.Key InsightsAI and Creative Authenticity: Ben, coming from a filmmaking background, views generative AI as a collaborator without a mind, which disassociates work from the author's unique experience. He believes art's value lies in being a window into an individual's life, a quality diluted by AI's averaged output.Simulation vs. Real Experience: We discussed how AI and even some modern technologies offer simulations of experiences (like VR travel or social media connections) that lack the depth and richness of real-world engagement. These simulations can be easier to access but may leave individuals unfulfilled and unaware of what they're missing.The Quest for Honesty Over Authenticity: I posited that while people claim to want authenticity, they might actually desire honesty more. Raw, unfiltered authenticity can be confronting, whereas honesty within a framework of trust allows for genuine connection without necessarily exposing every raw emotion.Trust as Unpurchasable Value: Ben emphasized that trust is one of the few things that cannot be bought; it must be earned and is easily broken. This makes genuine trust incredibly valuable, especially in a world where corporate entities often feign trustworthiness for transactional purposes.Designing for People, Not Money: Ben shared his philosophy behind Play Culture, which is to "design for people, not money." This means prioritizing genuine human experience, joy, and connection over optimizing for profit, believing that true value, including financial sustainability, can arise as a byproduct of creating something meaningful.The Need for Adult Play: Play Culture aims to fill a void by creating tactical outdoor games specifically designed for adult minds and social dynamics. This goes beyond childlike play or existing adult games like video games and sports, focusing on socially driven gameplay, strategy, and unique adult experiences.Gentle Technology in Gaming: Contrasting with AR-heavy games like Pokémon GO, Play Culture advocates for "gentle technology." The tech (like a mobile app) supports gameplay by providing information or connecting players, but the core interaction happens through players' senses and real-world engagement, not primarily through a screen.Real-World Game Streaming as the Future: Ben's vision for Play Culture includes moving towards real-world game streaming, akin to video game streaming on Twitch, but featuring live-action tactical games played in real cities. This aims to create a new genre of entertainment showcasing genuine human interaction and strategy.Contact Information* Ben Roper's Instagram* Website: playculture.com

In response to overwhelm, the body tries to keep one safe in different ways. Sometimes our body feels so shaken and shocked that it makes our mind need to disconnect from the pain of it. This is called dissociating. Yet, the body still remembers what happened. The impact to our biology doesn't go away just because we don't understand or remember something. The impact is how the body keeps track of everything from out past. When we understand that our body is reacting because it is still holding onto something from the past, it can help us uncover what needs to be healed. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk joins Dr. Aimie in this episode to explore the profound nature of trauma - how it affects the body in ways that make it keep score. He explains why trauma is not just about the events but about how those experiences become engrained in our biology, creating patterns that persist long after the danger has passed. This in turn can make trauma something that is truly "unbelievable, unbearable, and overwhelming." Our bodies are built to move when we're in danger. When we can't move during traumatic events, it changes how our brain works. This conversation looks at why this happens. It also explains how difficult experiences in childhood create patterns in our minds - like an inner roadmap - that shape how we see the world and connect with people as adults. They'll talk more on: Why trauma leaves people unable to articulate their experiences How dissociation works as a way to survive during overwhelming events Why the lack of movement during an event is what makes it traumatic The physical toll of living with a dysregulated nervous system Why healing must address the basic housekeeping functions of the body How trauma blocks our capacity to experience pleasure and worthiness And more! If you're working with trauma professionally, supporting someone on their healing journey, or navigating your own recovery, this episode is excellent for understanding how the body keeps score while offering practical actions to reclaim agency, embody healing, and create a life worth living through curiosity and collaboration.

CW: Includes references to drug use and racialized violence discourse.King Ketamine: https://www.parapraxismagazine.com/articles/king-ketamineAcid Horizon welcomes back Taija Mars McDougall to discuss her latest essay “King Ketamine,” published in Parapraxis Magazine. Together, we examine how ketamine—favored by Silicon Valley elites like Elon Musk—has become the drug of the techno-fascist sacrament, fueling disassociation and delusions of divine-like Promethean capitalism. Drawing on personal encounters and haunting hallucinations, Taija explores how the drug mirrors and intensifies a chimerical ruling-class subjectivity in which power is sanctified through suffering and algorithmic detachment. The conversation charts a chilling terrain: from the political theology of tech billionaires and the racial substrate of “techno-optimism” to the convergence of AI, surveillance, and “libertarian” psychoanalysis.Support the showSupport the podcast:https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcast Boycott Watkins Media: https://xenogothic.com/2025/03/17/boycott-watkins-statement/ Join The Schizoanalysis Project: https://discord.gg/4WtaXG3QxnSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438 LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.comRevolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.comSplit Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/

In this episode of The Pleasure Priority Podcast, Amber discusses the current FAFO (Fuck Around and Find Out) movement, emphasizing its relevance to Black women resting and self-care. The conversation reflects on the critical role black women have played in pushing social movements forward and the need for us to rest following the 92% turnout in recent U.S. elections that still didn't produce favorable results. The FAFO movement encourages black women to focus on self-care and allow others to take up the mantle of activism while we take the next four years to rest. Amber highlights various forms of rest, including physical, creative, mental, social, emotional, and sensory rest, as essential practices for resting intentionally ad sustaining well-being. In addition, the episode promotes National Day of Rest for Black Women on March 10th, honoring the legacy of Harriet Tubman, and invites listeners to join her for the Black Girl Burnout Society's virtual event celebrating and discussing the National Day of Rest for Black Women on March 9th. Black women resting and prioritizing personal well-being are revolutionary acts that deserve to be honored and recognized.

In this week's episode of Outspoken Mental Health I'm talking about disassociation, a lesser known symptom of anxiety that can feel very scary but will never harm you.This is the symptom that has always scared me the most but as I've learnt more about what it is I've become less freaked out by it.During the episode I talk about why it happens, what it feels like and how slowly and surely you can learn to live with it until you get to a point where it all but disappears.Remember I'm not a professional and am speaking from my own experience.Joshua Fletcher aka @anxietyjosh experienced and talks about both derealisation and depersonalisation from the point of view of a professional with real life experience and I thoroughly recommend seeking him out if you would like more information.

We're talking spiritual psychosis, disassociation, and other red flags on your healing journey. We're kinda talking about a sensitive subject. There's a very common occurrence that happens on the spiritual, self-exploration, healing, personal development journey that not a lot of people know about and these are definitely red flags you need to look out for on your own spiritual journey. Especially if you are prone to addiction, additive thinking, are neurodivergent, or have a history of complex trauma many of these signs are often missed or ignored. ⭐ ⭐ Free community for healing arts practitioners: https://tinyurl.com/playground222 __________ ⭐ Breathwork Facilitator Certification: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com ⭐ Discover your healer archetype: https://www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype ⭐ Free download: Somatic Flow Breathwork Techniques for Coaches and Healers: https://flowbreathwork.lpages.co/somatic-flow-breathwork-techniques-freebie-download __________
A conditional "love" story... Disclaimer: Since this happened I have felt like a darkish cloud has lifted and if I am being honest life feels really good since a specific person was removed from my life. Sometimes when we are in situations ourselves we can't see the red flags, and we doubt our own internal guiding system. Your GUT/your intuition is your guiding system. When you start to ignore it then there will be other signs as it starts to find other ways to make you see that something, or someone is NOT for you. Disassociation, fatigue, brain fog, poor immune system and getting colds often, anxiety and whatever else it feels is necessary. You cant be tapped into a high vibrations with a constant low vibration around you... Do you have someone in your life like this?

“Seeing Sita, like trying to decipher knowledge from the Vedas which has become barely perceptible after lack of use, his mind became doubtful. As Sita was not decorated, with difficulty Hanuman could recognize her, like understanding a text which has gotten a different meaning due to a lack of purity.” (Valmiki Ramayana, Sundara Kand, 15.38-39)

Attachment styles are deeply rooted in our early childhood experiences and shape how we interact with others. In today's episode, we discuss the avoidant attachment style and how it stands out for its impact on relationships and the personal emotional landscape. The most common manifestation of avoidant attachment is a deep-seated fear of abandonment. People with this attachment style often struggle with emotional vocabulary, hindering their ability to express their feelings. They might feel haunted by a constant fear of being left alone, leading to a strong desire to maintain emotional distance in relationships. We share steps to deal with this challenging behavior to help navigate emotions, communicate feelings more effectively, and foster healthier relationships.Digital Asset: Attachment Styles: https://bit.ly/40C2t7T Here's the list of episodes related to today's discussion, and we highly recommend listening to them as well:#224 | Is Your Attachment Style Hurting You? - https://apple.co/3rOchi9 #122 | Why Do I Feel So Insecure? - https://apple.co/3JNR52o _______________Connect with Emilia, Bianca & the EVOLVE VENTURES Community:Website: www.evolveventurestech.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/evolveventures/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/EvolveVenturesTech (Public Page)Evolve Ventures Society (Private Facebook Group) - https://www.facebook.com/groups/457130589193794 Emilia's IG - https://www.instagram.com/evolvewithemilia/ Emilia's TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@evolvewithemilia Bianca's IG - https://www.instagram.com/evolvewithbianca/ Bianca's Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@evolvewithbianca?_t=8gq3wqu4fAx&_r=1 Connect with Emilia & Bianca from Evolve Ventures for FREE: https://bit.ly/3THiEN4Show notes:[4:00] The avoidant attachment style[6:25] Fear of abandonment[9:21] Self-soothing[13:31] Julie gives a shoutout to Evolve Ventures and Bianca for the transformative coaching she received that made a huge impact on her life[14:23] Each attachment style has its struggles[18:10] Disassociation[23:55] Outro***Leave them a 5-star review if you felt their energy, became inspired, or felt as though value was added to your life in your EVOLUTION.(Stay tuned for this coming Monday's episode!)

The way we react under stress or when feeling threatened is often due to our unconscious trauma responses. In our latest podcast episode, we delve into understanding and managing these responses, focusing on the four critical trauma responses — fight, flight, freeze, and fawn. These trauma responses are reactions to perceived threats and influence our mental health and relationships. An essential aspect of managing trauma responses is recognizing and identifying our triggers. Remember, when we understand and adapt our trauma responses, we become living examples of growth and resilience. So, let's make a positive difference—one response at a time.Digital Asset: Trauma Responses - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1S9xZqaKBVmzZeI4sHCbaDENrx8IdtRmA/view?usp=drive_link Here's the list of episodes related to today's discussion, and we highly recommend listening to them as well:#209 | Motivation Monday: How To Stop Hiding Who You Are - https://apple.co/451M90K#140 | You Are Not Defined By Your Trauma - https://apple.co/46jFDDr _________________Connect with Emilia, Bianca & the EVOLVE VENTURES Community:Website: www.evolveventurestech.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/evolveventures/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/EvolveVenturesTech (Public Page)Private Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/457130589193794 Emilia's IG - https://www.instagram.com/evolvewithemilia/ Emilia's TikTok - https://vm.tiktok.com/TTPdkYujDR/ Bianca's IG - https://www.instagram.com/evolvewithbianca/ Connect with Emilia & Bianca from Evolve Ventures for FREE: https://bit.ly/3THiEN4Show notes:[2:10] Trauma responses[5:40] Stress responses[6:54] Fight response[9:04] Fawning[13:41] Flight[17:01] Freeze[20:54] Disassociation[22:43] Kayleigh talks about the supportive and caring environment within the Evolve Ventures team[23:52] Performance response[26:21] Impact and transformation[31:35] Thinking ahead[34:54] Caring about our trauma response[38:36] How to start working on yourself[45:28] Outro***Leave them a 5-star review if you felt their energy, became inspired, or felt as though value was added to your life in your EVOLUTION.(Stay tuned for this coming Monday's episode!)
I know, you can't actually hold your breath for six years. But metaphorically, apparently you can and not even know it. That is exactly my felt experience these past 6 to 8 weeks. And I didn't realize that I'd been holding my breath until I exhaled.What did “holding my breath” actually look like? Disassociation - an involuntary survival instinct that helps protect us from mental and physical pain. The brain and body cannot handle processing all that needs to be processed when you've experienced trauma. So, it waits until it's safe enough to do so. And it “exhales.” And when it decides to exhale, the processing begins. But you may not even be consciously aware of what's going on. The subconscious is driving all of it. This episode focuses on the continuation of healing after trauma. Are you wondering how Life Coaching works? Would you like a free, 30-minute session?
