Marty Leeds (Gnostic Academy) and Steven Young (Hedflux) have something in common: they're both fascinated and inspired by the 16th-17th century Alchemist, Robert Fludd. In this episode, we explore the natural philosophy, musical cosmology, and metaphysics and divine sciences of one of history's greatest minds. Some topics include the infinite and indivisible God, Jesus: the light of the mind, Fludd's beef with Johannes Kepler, and the History of the Macrocosm. In the Plus+ Extension we discuss action-at-a-distance healing and the intriguing "weapon salve," how and why "like affects like," Fludd the Kabbalist, defensive esoteric writing and the Devil, the Esoteric Christ, the Sun and the Mind, and the possibilities of a physical Philosopher's Stone, and much more.

After 2024's year of mostly bummer, sad-time shows, Colin suggested 2025 take a bit of a tonal shift. This year we aim to enjoy happier anime, starting the utterly insane Excel Saga! Join us this week as we ask what this show is about, what IS this show about, and WHAT IS THIS SHOW ABOUT!? [Episode 1] The Koshi Rikdo Assassination Plot: Ilpalazzo desires to exterminate the world's manga artists, ordering Excel to start with Rikdo Koshi, but she is thwarted by the intervention of the Great Will of the Macrocosm and her own conscience. After chatting with Pedro, the immigrant worker, and chasing down dinner, Excel makes a second attempt on Rikdo's life. [Episode 2] The Woman from Mars: In the fashion of sci-fi movies. Reinforcements from ACROSS Headquarters turn out to be an invasion by the incredibly cute but deceptively tyrannic Puchuu Imperium, and Excel stages a brave, if somewhat misguided, raid on their Mothership. Meanwhile, Nabeshin is also aboard in order to help an old friend escape the clutches of the Puchuus. At the end, the aerial alien invasion force is destroyed, Excel is being held as a prisoner of war, and Ilpalazzo admits Hyatt to ACROSS' ranks.

Farmer is the Baillie Gifford Professor of Complex Systems at Oxford's Institute for New Economic Thinking. Before joining Oxford in 2012, he worked at Los Alamos National Laboratory and the Santa Fe Institute, where he studied complex systems and economic dynamics. During the 1990s, he took a break from academia to run a successful quantitative trading firm using statistical arbitrage strategies.Farmer has been a pioneer in chaos theory and complexity economics, including the development of agent-based models to understand economic phenomena. His work spans from housing markets to climate change, and he recently authored Making Sense of Chaos exploring complexity science and economic modeling.In This Episode* What is complexity economics? (1:23)* Compliment or replacement for traditional economics (6:55)* Modeling Covid-19 (11:12)* The state of the science (15:06)* How to approach economic growth (20:44)Below is a lightly edited transcript of our conversation. What is complexity economics? (1:23)We really can model the economy as something dynamic that can have its own business cycles that come from within the economy, rather than having the economy just settle down to doing something static unless it's hit by shocks all the time, as is the case in mainstream models.Pethokoukis: What does the sort of economics that people would learn, let's say, in the first year of college, they might learn about labor and capital, supply-demand equilibrium, rational expectations, maybe the importance of ideas. How does that differ from the kind of economics you are talking about? Are you looking at different factors?Farmer: We're really looking at a completely different way of doing economics. Rather than maximizing utility, which is really the central conceptual piece of any standard economic model, and writing down equations, and deducing the decision that does that, we simulate the economy.We assume that we identify who the agents in the and economy are, who's making the decisions, what information do they have available, we give them methods of making the decisions — decision-making rules or learning algorithms — and then they make decisions, those decisions have economic impact, that generates new information, other information may enter from the outside, they make decisions, and we just go around and around that loop in a computer simulation that tries to simulate what the economy does and how it works.You've been writing about this for some time. I would guess — perhaps I'm wrong — that just having more data and more computer power has been super helpful over the past 10 years, 20 years.It's been super helpful for us. We take much more advantage of that than the mainstream does. But yes, computers are a billion times more powerful now than they were when Herb Simon first suggested this way of doing things, and that means the time is ripe now because that's not a limiting factor anymore, as it was in the past.So if you're not looking at capital and labor per se, then what are the factors you're looking at?Well, we do look at capital and labor, we just look at them in a different way. Our models are concerned about how much capital is there to invest, what labor is available. We do have to assign firms production functions that tells, given an amount of capital and labor and all their other inputs, how much can the firms produce? That part of the idea is similar. It's a question of the way the decision about how much to produce is made, or the way consumers decide how much to consume, or laborers decide at what price to provide their labor. All those parts are different.Another difference — if I'm understanding it correctly — is, rather than thinking about economies that tend toward equilibrium and focusing how outside shocks may put an economy in disequilibrium, you're looking a lot more at what happens internally. Am I correct?We don't assume equilibrium. Equilibrium, it has two senses in economics: One is supply equals demand. We might or might not run a model where we assume that. In many models we don't, and if that happens, that's great, but it's an outcome of the model rather than an assumption we put in at the beginning.There's another sense of equilibrium, which is that everybody's strategy is lined up. You've had time to think about what you're doing, I've had time to think about what I'm doing, we've both come to the optimal decision for each of us to make, taking the other one into account. We don't assume that, as standard models typically do. We really can model the economy as something dynamic that can have its own business cycles that come from within the economy, rather than having the economy just settle down to doing something static unless it's hit by shocks all the time, as is the case in mainstream models. We still allow shocks to hit our models, but the economy can generate dynamics even without those shocks.This just popped in my head: To whom would this model make more intuitive sense, Karl Marx or Adam Smith?Adam Smith would like these models because they really allow for emergent behavior. That is, Smith's whole point was that the economy is more than the sum of its parts, that we get far more out of specializing than we do out of each acting like Robinson Crusoes. Our way of thinking about this gets at that very directly.Marx might actually like it too, perhaps for a different reason. Marx was insightful in understanding the economy as being like, what I call in the book, the “metabolism of civilization.” That is, he really did recognize the analogy between the economy and the metabolism, and viewed labor as what we put together with natural resources to make goods and services. So those aspects of the economy are also embodied in the kind of models we're making.I think they both like it, but for different reasons.Compliment or replacement for traditional economics (6:55)There are many problems where we can answer questions traditional methods can't even really ask.The way I may have framed my questions so far is that you are suggesting a replacement or alternative. Is what you're suggesting, is it one of those things, or is it a compliment, or is it just a way of looking at the world that's better at answering certain kinds of questions?I think the jury is out to find the answer to that. I think it is certainly a compliment, and that we're doing things very differently, and there are some problems where this method is particularly well-suited. There are many problems where we can answer questions traditional methods can't even really ask.That said, I think time will tell to what extent this replaces the traditional way of doing economics. I don't think it's going to replace everything that's done in traditional economics. I think it could replace 75 percent of it — but let me put an asterisk by that and say 75 percent of theory. Economists do many different things. One thing economists do is called econometrics, where they take data and they build models just based on the data to infer things that the data is telling them. We're not talking about that here. We're talking about theories where economists attempt to derive the decisions and economic outcomes from first principles based on utility maximization. That's what we're talking about providing an alternative to. The extent to which it replaces that will be seen as time will tell.When a big Wall Street bank wants to make a forecast, they're constantly incorporating the latest jobless claims numbers, industrial production numbers, and as those numbers get updated, they change their forecasts. You're not using any of that stuff?Well, no. We can potentially could ingest any kind of data about what's going on.But they're looking at big, top-down data while you're bottom-up, you're sort of trying to duplicate the actual actors in the economy.That is true, but we can adjust what's at the bottom to make sure we're matching initial conditions. So if somebody tells us, “This is the current value of unemployment,” we want to make sure that we're starting our model out, as we go forward, with the right level of unemployment. So we will unemploy some of the households in our model in order to make sure we're matching the state of unemployment right now and then we start our simulation running forward to see where the economy goes from here.I would think that the advent of these large language models would really take this kind of modeling to another level, because already I'm seeing lots of papers on their ability to . . . where people are trying to run experiments and, rather than using real people, they're just trying to use AI people, and the ability to create AI consumers, and AI in businesses — it would have to be a huge advance.Yes. This is starting to be experimented with for what we do. People are trying to use large language models to model how people actually make decisions, or let's say, to simulate the way people make decisions, as opposed to an idealized person that makes perfect decisions. That's a very promising line of attack to doing this kind of modeling.Large language models also can tell us about other things that allow us to match data. For example, if we want to use patents as an input in our modeling — not something we're doing yet, but we've done a lot of studies with patents — one can use large language models to match patents to firms to understand which firms will benefit from the patents and which firms won't. So there are many different ways that large language models are likely to enter going forward, and we're quite keen to take advantage of those.Modeling Covid-19 (11:12)We predicted a 21.5 percent hit to UK GDP in the second quarter of 2020. When the dust settled a year later, the right answer was 22.1. So we got very close.Tell me, briefly, about your work with the Covid outbreak back in 2020 and what your modeling said back then and how well it worked.When the pandemic broke out, we realized right away that this was a great opportunity to show the power of the kind of economic modeling that we do, because Covid was a very strong and very sudden shock. So it drove the economy far out of equilibrium. We were able to predict what Covid would do to the UK economy using two basic ideas: One is, we predicted the shock. We did that based on things like understanding a lot about occupational labor. The Bureau of Labor Statistics compiles tables about things like, in a given occupation, how close together do people typically work? And so we assumed if they worked closer together than two meters, they weren't going to be able to go to their job. That combined with several other things allowed us to predict how big the shock would be.Our model predicted how that shock would be amplified through time by the action of the economy. So in the model we built, we put a representative firm in every sector of the economy and we assumed that if that firm didn't have the labor it needed, or if it didn't have the demand for its product, or if it didn't have the inputs it needed, it wouldn't be able to produce its product and the output would be reduced proportional to any of those three limiting factors.And so we started the model off on Day One with an inventory of inputs that we read out of a table that government statistical agencies had prepared for each sector of the economy. And we then just looked, “Well, does it have the labor? Does it have demand? Does it have the goods?” If yes, it can produce at its normal level. If it's lacking any of those, it's going to produce at a lower level. And our model knew the map of the economy, so it knew which industries are inputs to which other industries. So as the pandemic evolved day by day, we saw that some industries started to run out of inputs and that would reduce their output, which, in turn, could cause other industries to run out of their inputs, and so on.That produced quite a good prediction. We predicted a 21.5 percent hit to UK GDP in the second quarter of 2020. When the dust settled a year later, the right answer was 22.1. So we got very close. We predicted things pretty well, industry by industry. We didn't get them all exactly right, but the mistakes we made averaged out so that we got the overall output right, and we got it right through time.We ran the model on several different scenarios. At the time, this was in April of 2020, the United Kingdom was in a lockdown and they were trying to decide what to do next, and we tested several different scenarios for what they might do when they emerged from the full lockdown. The one that we thought was the least bad was keeping all the upstream industries like mining, and forestry, and so on open, but closing the downstream, customer-facing industries like retail businesses that have customers coming into their shop, or making them operate remotely. That was the one they picked. Already when they picked it, we predicted what would happen, and things unfolded roughly as we suggested they would.The state of the science (15:06)Mainstream models can only model shocks that come from outside the economy and how the economy responds to those shocks. But if you just let the model sit there and nothing changes, it will just settle down and the economy will never change.I'm old enough to remember the 1990s and remember a lot of talk about chaos and complexity, some of which even made it into the mainstream, and Jurassic Park, which may be the way most people heard a little bit about it. It's been 30 years. To what extent has it made inroads into economic modeling at central banks or Wall Street banks? Where's the state of the science? Though it sounds like you're really taking another step forward here with the book and some of your latest research.Maybe I could first begin just by saying that before Jurassic Park was made, I got a phone call and picked up the phone, and the other end of the line said, “Hi, this is Jeff Goldblum, have you ever heard of me?” I said, “Yeah.” And he said, “Well, we're making this movie about dinosaurs and stuff, and I'm going to play a chaos scientist, and I'm calling up some chaos scientists to see how they talk.” And so I talked to Jeff Goldblum for about a half an hour. A few of my other friends did too. So anyway, I like to think I had a tiny little bit of impact on the way he behaved in the movie. There were some parallels that it seemed like he had lifted.Chaos, it's an important underlying concept in explaining why the weather is hard to predict, it can explain some forms of heart arrhythmias, we use it to explain some of the irregular behavior of ice ages. In economics, it was tossed around in the '90s as something that might be important and rejected. As I described in the book, I think it was rejected for the wrong reasons.I'm proposing chaos, the role it plays in here is that, there's a debate about business cycles. Do they come from outside? The Covid pandemic was clearly a business cycle that came from outside. Or do they come from inside the economy? The 2008 financial crisis, I would say, is clearly one that came from inside the economy. Mainstream models can only model shocks that come from outside the economy and how the economy responds to those shocks. But if you just let the model sit there and nothing changes, it will just settle down and the economy will never change.In contrast, the kinds of models we build often show what we call endogenous business cycles, meaning business cycles that the model generates all on its own. Now then, you can ask, “Well, how could it do that?” Well, basically the only plausible way it can do that is through chaos. Because chaos has two properties: One is called sensitive dependence on initial conditions, meaning tiny changes in the present can cause large changes in the future; but the other is endogenous motion, meaning motion that comes from within the system itself, that happens spontaneously, even in very simple systems of equations.Would something like consumer pessimism, would that be an external shock or would something more internal where everybody, they're worried about the futures, then they stop spending as much money? How would that fit in?If the consumer pessimism is due to the fear of a nuclear war, I would say it's outside the economy, and so that's an external shock. But if it's caused by the fact that the economy just took a big nose dive for an internal reason, then it's part of the endogenous dynamicsI spent many years as a journalist writing about why the market's going up, the market's going down, and by the end of the day, I had to come up with a reason why the market moved, and I could — I wasn't always quite confident, because sometimes it wasn't because of a new piece of data, or an earnings report, they just kind of moved, and I had no real reason why, even though I had to come up . . . and of course it was when I was doing that was when people started talking about chaos, and it made a lot of intuitive sense to me that things seem to happen internally in ways that, at least at the time, were utterly unpredictable.Yeah, and in fact, one of the studies I discuss in the book is by Cutler, Poterba, and Summers — the Summers would be Larry Summers — where they did something very simple, they just got the 100 largest moves of the S&P index, they looked up what the news was the next day about why they occurred in the New York Times, and they subjectively marked the ones that they thought were internally driven, versus the ones that were real news, and they concluded they could only find news causes for about a third of them.There is always an explanation in the paper; actually, there is one day on the top 12 list where the New York Times simply said, “There appears to be no cause.” That was back in the '40s, I don't think journalists ever say that anymore. I don't think their paper allows them to do it, but that's probably the right answer about two-thirds of the time, unless you count things like “investors are worried,” and, as I point out in the book, if the person who invests your money isn't worried all the time, then you should fire them because investors should worry.There are internal dynamics to markets, I actually show some examples in the book of simple models that generate that kind of internal dynamics so that things change spontaneously.How to approach economic growth (20:44)I'm not saying something controversial when I say that technological change is the dominant driver of economic growth, at least for the economy as a whole. You recently founded a company, Macrocosm, trying to put some of these ideas to work to address climate change, which would seem to be a very natural use for this kind of thinking. What do you hope to achieve there?We hope to provide better guidance through the transition. We're trying to take the kind of things we've been doing as academics, but scale them up and reduce them to practice so they can be used day-in and day-out to make the decisions that policymakers and businesspeople need to make as the transition is unfolding. We hope to be able to guide policymakers about how effective their policies will be in reducing emissions, but also in keeping the economy going and in good shape. We hope to be able to advise businesses and investors about what investments to make to make a profit while we reduce emissions. And we think that things have changed so that climate change has really become an opportunity rather than a liability.I write a lot about economic growth and try to figure out how it works, what are the key factors. . . What insights can you give me, either on how you think about growth and, since I work at a think tank, the kind of policies you think policy makers should be thinking about, or how should they think about economic growth, since that seems to be on top-of-mind in every rich country in the world right now?I'm not saying something controversial when I say that technological change is the dominant driver of economic growth, at least for the economy as a whole. And we've spent a lot of time studying technological change by just collecting data and looking for the patterns in that data: What does the technology cost through time and how rapidly is it deployed? We've done this for 50 or 60 technologies where we look at past technological transitions, because typically, as a technology is coming in, it's replacing something else that's going out, and what we've seen are a couple of striking things:One is, many technologies don't really improve very much over time, at least in terms of cost. Fossil fuels cost about the same as they did 140 years ago once you adjust for inflation. In fact, anything we mine out of the ground costs about the same as it did a hundred years ago.In contrast, solar energy from solar photovoltaic panels costs 1/10,000th what it did when it was introduced in the Vanguard satellite in 1958. Transistors have been going down at 40 percent per year, so they cost about a billionth of what they did back in 1960. So some technologies really make rapid progress, and the economy evolves by reorganizing itself around the technologies that are making progress. So for example, photography used to be about chemistry and film. Photography now is about solid-state physics because it just unhitched from one wagon and hitched itself to another wagon, and that's what's happening through the energy transition. We're in the process of hitching our wagon to the technologies that have been making rapid progress, like solar energy, and wind energy, and lithium ion batteries, and hydrogen catalyzers based on green energy.I think we can learn a lot about the past, and I think that when we look at what the ride should be like, based on what we understand, we think the transition is going to happen faster than most people think, and we think it will be a net saving of moneySo then how do you deal with a wild card, which I think if you look at the past, nuclear power seems like it's super expensive, no progress being made, but, theoretically, there could be — at least in the United States — there could be lots of regulatory changes that make it easier to build. You have all these venture capital firms pouring money into these nuclear startups with small reactors, or even nuclear fusion. So a technology that seems like it's a mature technology, it might be easy to chart its future, all of a sudden maybe it's very different.I'm not arguing we should get rid of nuclear reactors until they run their normal lifetime and need to be gotten rid of, but I think we will see that that is not going to be the winning technology in the long run, just because it's going to remain expensive while solar energy is going to become dirt cheap.In the early days, nuclear power had faced a very favorable regulatory environment. The first nuclear reactors were built in the '50s. Until Three Mile Island and Chernobyl happened, it was a very regulatorily friendly environment and they didn't come down in cost. Other countries like France have been very pro-nuclear. They have very expensive electricity and will continue to do so.I think the key thing we need to do is focus on storage technologies like green hydrogen. Long-term storage batteries have already come down to a point where they're beginning to be competitive; they will continue to do so. And in the future, I think we'll get solid-state storage that will make things quite cheap and efficient, but I don't think small modular reactors are going to ever be able to catch up with solar and wind at this point.On sale everywhere The Conservative Futurist: How To Create the Sci-Fi World We Were PromisedMicro Reads▶ Economics* United States Economic Forecast - Deloitte* The Hidden Threat to National Security Is Not Enough Workers - WSJ▶ Business* DOGE Can't Do It All.

Hear from Prof. J. Doyne Farmer, Professor of Complex Systems Science at the University of Oxford, as we explore new modelling approaches designed to better capture the complex and chaotic nature of our climate and economy. We spend a lot of time on this podcast covering the transition to a low carbon economy, which will be driven largely by policies and technological innovation. These policies tend to be based on insights from economics. And our view on the pace of innovation is often informed by expert judgement. But traditional economic models often oversimplify the world, leading to poor policy design. And we tend to underestimate the exponential rate of technological change, making us unduly pessimistic about the transition. Today's guest has thought a great deal about both these issues. That's why in today's episode we'll be diving into the world of complexity economics and agent-based modelling, which can help us better navigate the risks and opportunities associated with the transition. We'll discuss: How agent-based models are very well suited to modelling complex, non-linear systems, such as the economy; How past innovation cycles can provide invaluable insights on what we might expect to see in the transition; and What the models tell us about the appropriate speed of the transition to a net zero world.

Doyne Farmer, Professor of Complex Systems Science, University of Oxford J. Doyne Farmer is Baillie Gifford Professor of Complex Systems Science at the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment and Director of the Complexity Economics programme at the Institute for New Economic Thinking University of Oxford. He is also External Professor at the Santa Fe Institute and Chief Scientist at Macrocosm. His current research is in economics, including agent-based modelling, financial instability and technological progress. He was a founder of Prediction Company, a quantitative automated trading firm that was sold to UBS in 2006. His past research includes complex systems, dynamical systems theory, time series analysis and theoretical biology. His book, Making Sense of Chaos: A Better Economics for a Better World, was published in 2024. During the 1980s he was an Oppenheimer Fellow and the founder of the Complex Systems Group at Los Alamos National Laboratory. While a graduate student in the 1970s he built the first wearable digital computer, which was successfully used to predict the game of roulette.
We're excited to welcome Doyne Farmer to the podcast. Doyne is a pioneering complexity scientist and a leading thinker on economic systems, technological change, and the future of society. Doyne is a Professor of Complex Systems at the University of Oxford, an external professor at the Santa Fe Institute, and Chief Scientist at Macrocosm. Doyne's work spans an extraordinary range of topics, from agent-based modeling of financial markets to exploring how innovation shapes the long-term trajectory of human progress. At the heart of Doyne's thinking is a focus on prediction—not in the narrow sense of forecasting next week's market trends, but in understanding the deep, generative forces that shape the evolution of technology and society. His new book, Making Sense of Chaos: A Better Economics for a Better World, is a reflection on the limitations of traditional economics and a call to embrace the tools of complexity science. In it, Doyne argues that today's economic models often fall short because they assume simplicity where there is none. What's especially compelling about Doyne's perspective is how he uses complexity science to challenge conventional economic assumptions. While traditional economics often treats markets as rational and efficient, Doyne reveals the messy, adaptive, and unpredictable nature of real-world economies. His ideas offer a powerful framework for rethinking how we approach systemic risk, innovation policy, and the role of AI-driven technologies in shaping our future. We believe Doyne's ideas are essential for anyone trying to understand the uncertainties we face today. He doesn't just highlight the complexity—he shows how to navigate it. By tracking the hidden currents that drive change, he helps us see the bigger picture of where we might be headed.

Sean Carroll's Mindscape: Science, Society, Philosophy, Culture, Arts, and Ideas
A large economy is one of the best examples we have of complex dynamics. There are multiple components arranged in complicated overlapping hierarchies, out-of-equilibrium dynamics, nonlinear coupling and feedback between different levels, and ubiquitous unpredictable and chaotic behavior. Nevertheless, many economic models are based on relatively simple equilibrium principles. Doyne Farmer is among a group who think that economists need to start taking the tools of complexity theory seriously, as he argues in his recent book Making Sense of Chaos: A Better Economics for a Better World.Support Mindscape on Patreon.Blog post with transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2024/10/21/293-doyne-farmer-on-chaos-crashes-and-economic-complexity/J.

Macrocosm (Star Trek: Voyager, S3 E12) was recommended by Alex Russet (He/Him), who said: I have a soft spot for this episode. It's a wonderfully bonkers off the wall concept pulled off in a fun way. Flying viruses as big as you head? Why not? Trek's done crazier. And plus it features Janeway going full Ellen Ripley. What's not to love?Macrocosm first aired on December 11, 1996, written by Brannon Braga, and directed by Alexander SingerGreg's Charity Stream information. https://tilt.fyi/cfN1BNS95SThe Joy of Trek is hosted by Khaki & Kay, with editing & production by Chief Engineer Greg and music by Fox Amoore (Bandcamp | Bluesky)Send us your recommendations, or support us on Patreon.Find us at joyoftrek.com · Twitter · Facebook

In the 1970's, J. Doyne Farmer built the first wearable computer which he used to predict the game of roulette. While this didn't make him particularly popular in casinos, it did mark the beginning of a glittering scientific career in complexity and systems theory, as well as in theoretical physics and biology. And, along the way, Farmer founded a quantitative automated trading firm that was sold to UBS in 2006 as well as working for a while as an Oppenheimer Fellow at Los Alamos Labs. So when a guy as smart as Farmer - who now teaches both at Oxford and at the Santa Fe Institute — turns his big brain to economics, we should take note. In his new book, Making Sense of Chaos, Farmer explains how we can get to a “better economics for a better world” through what he calls complex economics. As a fusion of big data analysis and behavioral economics, Farmer is navigating a third economic way between the scylla of traditional free market economics and the charybdis of de-growth economics. Seriously smart stuff from one the world's brainiest men. J. Doyne Farmer is Director of the Complexity Economics programme at the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the Oxford Martin School, Baillie Gifford Professor of Complex Systems Science at the Smith School for Enterprise and the Environment, University of Oxford, External Professor at the Santa Fe Institute, and Chief Scientist at Macrocosm. His current research is in economics, including agent-based modeling, financial instability and technological progress. He was a founder of Prediction Company, a quantitative automated trading firm that was sold to UBS in 2006. His past research includes complex systems, dynamical systems theory, time series analysis and theoretical biology.

Cosm is a front-facing, 180-degree, 87-foot diameter, 8K+ LED dome screen that can seat up to 1500 people. Their first location is opening in Los Angeles this weekend showing UFC 303, which is produced by their Cosm Immersive division (formerly LiveLikeVR) focusing on live sporting events, music, entertainment. They also have a Cosm Studios division that will continue to produce educational content for their network of planetariums, but also developing new forms of immersive art and immersive stories. Cosm Studios has been working with different XR artists over the past number of years in order to translate their work into either full dome planetariums or front-facing dome venues (with a second location opening in the future outside of Dallas, Texas). The Madison Square Garden Sphere opened up in Las Vegas on September 29, 2023 and has a seating capacity of around 18,600 people. Cosm is on a much smaller scale of a venue at 1500 people that allows them to be a bit more experimental with the types of immersive art, immersive stories, and immersive content as well as live sporting events to fill up their venue. Cosm listed a number of their content partnerships in a LinkedIn post from a couple of months ago where they said, "Transforming live sports and entertainment, Cosm LA invites you to experience the biggest and best live sports from ESPN, the National Basketball Association (NBA), Ultimate Fighting Championship, TNT Sports U.S., and NBC Sports in immersive 8K+. In addition to live sports, Cosm LA will showcase music, entertainment such as Cirque du Soleil Entertainment Group, and immersive art experiences from our Cosm Studios Creators Nancy Baker Cahill, Chris Holmes, Ricardo Romaneiro, and Guy Reid of PLANETARY COLLECTIVE." I had a chance to catch up with the head of Cosm Studios Neil Carty as well as the Senior Director of Studio Development for Cosm Studios Katy Yudin last year at Tribeca Immersive 2023 in order to get the backstory for how Cosm came about as well as how they've been working with immersive artists and immersive storytellers over the past couple of years to translate their XR projects to work in these different dome formats. You can check out Cosm's upcoming events that includes sporting events and world premieres of immersive content like "O" by Cirque du Soleil on July 11, LIQUIDVERSE: Microcosm & Macrocosm on July 12, Orbital on July 17, and SEEK on July 18.

Society whispers expectations, paints a picture of success, and defines happiness within its neat lines. But what if there's more? What if the truest joy lies in peeling back the layers and discovering the vibrant tapestry of humanity beneath? This journey isn't about rejecting societal norms, but about seeing through them. It's about recognizing the […]
Faust has mastered all conventional knowledge and finds it worthless, so he turns to “forbidden knowledge,” a book of magic. He sees a vision of celestial harmony, the Macrocosm, but it is transcendent and beyond him. So he conjures the Earth Spirit, but is terrified. The Earth Spirit dismisses him with contempt. Faust is about to drink poison in despair, but is distracted by Easter celebrations outside his study. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michael-dolzani/support
We look at this thoughtful attempt to dig into the complexity of real world situations and the attempts to make better models to understand what is happening around us and why. See more about the author Doyne Farmer here. Making Sense of Chaos: A Better Economics for a Better World, reviewed This is a challenging topic to do well. Models are always limited by their inherent nature, how many factors do you incorporate? How much data do you need, over how long a time period? How do you factor in the slightly to very unpredictable behaviour of humans themselves, and their inclination towards capricious behaviour sometimes? The author does a good job of explaining these challenges, while offering some small hope with positive and interesting examples. The ability to predict the weather is one example that the author refers to. Citing the observation, that, with each decade that passes, humanity seems able to predict one more day further into the future. For sure we can't yet say what the weather will be one month from now, but one to three day forecasts are pretty reliable, and even four to six days out, we are now able to have a pretty good idea of what is coming down the line. Of course human's impact on global warming, and more unstable weather systems does then counter impact on these improvements. Farmer also discusses the solar industry with interesting, and potentially hopeful and positive predications about the continued fall in the price of solar generated energy units, relative to those generated from fossil fuels. We found this book to be well written, self critical, and aiming to tackle something which, by it's vary nature is extremely difficult to do really well. If you are looking to get up to speed in any of the topics tackled then we would recommend it. More about the book In Making Sense of Chaos one of our most influential scientists, J Doyne Famer, tackles these questions and more. Introducing the new field of complexity economics, he describes how rebellious economists and other scientists are revolutionising our ability to predict the economy, developing new approaches to global problems - like climate change, inequality, and the devastating impact of financial crises, which hit the poorest hardest. These issues are all rooted in the economy, yet mainstream economics isn't helping to solve our most pressing problems. Farmer explains why it can't do the job, and suggests a better alternative, called complexity economics. Complex systems are characterized by emergent phenomena - creating a whole that is qualitatively different from the sum of its parts. Examples are the human brain, the weather system, and of course, the economy. The ideas behind complexity economics have been around for many years, but enabled by enormous improvements in computing power and big data, its time has come. We can now build real-world computer simulations of the economy that track its emergent behaviour in detail. For instance, it is possible to simulate how the occupational labour force changes through time, how economic policies affect rich or poor households, or how the economy will evolve during the energy transition. This new science, Farmer shows, will allow us to test ideas and make better economic predictions, enabling us to better tackle global problems like inequality and climate change, creating sustainable growth, and more. And, ultimately, create a better world. More about the author Doyne Farmer is an American complex systems scientist and entrepreneur who pioneered many of the fields that define the scientific agenda of our times: chaos, complex systems, artificial life, wearable computing, and more. Currently he is Director of the Complexity Economics programme at the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the Oxford Martin School, Baillie Gifford Professor of Complex Systems Science at the University of Oxford, Chief Scientist at Macrocosm, and an External Professor at the Santa Fe Institute.

On Thursday January 21st, 2021 the Hermetic Hour with host Poke Runyon, Frater Thabion, will present a discussion on The Outer Planets in astrology and magick, joined by astrologer and occult author Ann Finnin, V.H. Soror Urania. As most of us known astrology, Hermetic Magick and Alchemy arose and flourished in the years before the modern trans Saturnian planets were discovered. In ancient times it was believed that Saturn was the outer limit of the Solar System and Astrology and its dependent sciences: magick and alchemy factored celestial influences based on what could be observed with the naked eye. According to Hermetic philosophy the Macrocosm of the heavens was reflected in the human Microcosm. We all behaved prospered or failed on the whim of the planets within and the surrounding signs of the zodiac. In magick we all had seven planets in our horoscopes to contend with and we created talismans and rituals to deal with them. In the middle ages and the Renaissance this astrological magick grew into an elaborate system. Which has continued into modern times but since 1791 when Herschel discovered Uranus beyond Saturn followed by the discovery of Neptune in 1846 and Pluto in 1030,the Hermetic Microcosm had to be extended. Astrologers managed to factor in the newly discovered heavenly bodies but magicians and alchemists were slow to adapt. These slow moving long term bodies have profound effects on individuals and societies. We will discuss the creation of talismans (kameas) and mythological applications to the outer planets. So if you would like to know what lies beyond the abyss, tune in and we'll take you to the Outer Limits.
The Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Carl Jung studied astrology for over 40 years, and was primarily interested in the way astrology could help to explore the psyche. For Jung, astrology represents the sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity. The notion of seeing mythic narratives through patterns in the heavens is one of the earliest attempts to link the outer world with the inner world. The well-known Hermetic dictum, “As above, so below,” is key to astrology. It is the idea that man (the microcosm), is influenced by the universe (the macrocosm). That is to say, truths about the nature of the cosmos may be inferred from truths about human nature, and vice versa. At the exact moment of birth, each person receives the typical qualities of the libido or energy which is characteristic of him or her. Time, or the moment understood as a peculiar form of energy, seems to coincide with our psychological condition. For Jung, this leads to a peculiar hypothesis, that our personality does not have to do with the position of the stars, but rather with the qualitative effect of time, also called synchronicity, based on the ancient Stoic concept of cosmic sympathy. ☕ Donate a coffee ⭐ Support on Patreon ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps (0:00) Introduction (3:54) The Zodiac: Wheel of Life (5:06) The Basics of Astrology (9:37) Microcosm and Macrocosm (10:44) Astrology becomes Astronomy (11:48) Astrology and Carl Jung (17:12) Astrology as Ancient Psychology (20:02) Astrological Age and Precession of the Equinoxes (23:12) Qualitative Time (27:02) Astrology and Synchronicity (28:23) Sympatheia: Cosmic Sympathy (29:00) Psychoid and Unus Mundus, Pleroma, Anima Mundi (30:00) Planets as Archons (Gnosticism) (30:50) Spirit of the Depths and Spirit of the Times (32:28) Jung's Thoughts on Astrology Before Death (33:15) Fate and Free Will (36:13) Individuation and Daimon (Soul-Image) (38:20) Exoteric and Esoteric Astrology (39:25) Aquarius: The Coming New Aeon (43:31) Conclusion

This is my favorite episode I ever recorded, it was so much fun to record this. I cannot wait for you to fully experience it. He Who Shrank is a science fiction novella by Henry Hasse, printed as the featured story in the August 1936 issue of Amazing Stories magazine. It is about a man who is forever shrinking through worlds nested within a universe with apparently endless levels of scale. The greatest scientist the world has ever had has invented an extraordinary new means of exploring the world of the infinitely small, and sends his devoted assistant on a mind-boggling series of adventures exploring the infinite series of concentric universes contained within the most minute particle, thus providing the scope and scale of one of the most ambitious and wide-ranging and thought-provoking science-fiction stories ever. Carl Sagan in 1978 wrote that the story "presents an entrancing cosmological speculation which is being seriously revived today" We have often discussed the concept of a fractal universe, with atoms or subatomic particles of one scale corresponding to the stars of another scale. But often times this idea gets lost in its complexity. Do we exist as a microcosm of something greater? What exists within the microcosm from us? Let me take you on a fantastic journey into the quantum realm.

In this episode of Displaced in Space, Angelina and Sam discuss "Macrocosm" Season 3, episode 12 of Star Trek: Voyager! This week, Janeway stalks the corridors of the ship with nothing but a tiny tank top and a giant phaser. Channeling John McClane, Ellen Ripley, and Sarah Connor, she is out to destroy the monster viruses that have taken over Voyager. She's here to kill bugs and drink coffee, and she's all out of coffee.
Albie Selznick Unmasked His face was covered in loads of makeup each time you saw him on Star Trek, but Albie Selznick is taking the mask off for this episode of Trek Untold. Albie was seen three times in Star Trek history, first in the TNG episode "The Cost of Living" as The Juggler, then returned two more times in Voyager, first in "Macrocosm" as the Tak Tak Consul and again as Tash in "The Voyager Conspiracy." We learn about his traumatic childhood that put him on the path of performing as a magician and actor, working as part of the musical & dance act The Mums, what he learned from his first acting teacher John De Lancie AKA Q, a fun story about another Star Trek alumni in Jason Alexander, working on "Freddy's Nightmares," Doug Jones in "Batman Returns," "Columbo" with Peter Falk, "Murder, She Wrote" with Angela Lansbury, and John Lithgow in "Ricochet." From there, it's onto Trek talk, as we learn what it's like juggling for hours in alien makeup and taking a mud bath with Majel Barrett, working with Ethan Phillips as the Tak Tak Consul, and his secret FOURTH Star Trek off-screen appearance that was a crucial element for the VOY episode "Natural Now."

We're into the 2nd episode of Horrortober, the month where we are only covering horror movies that takes place around the time of Halloween. Well Rocktober Bloody does reference the fact that the upcoming concert takes place on Halloween at least, once so that fits the bill. But this is a heavy metal horror film and Josh and Jesse don't play an instruments, so they needed to call in some help of heavy metal super star JC De Alba of the bands, Macrocosm, Agonxia, Decieve, and a few others that shred harder than cheese.Before we get into the nity gritty of this movie we have to gauge where JC falls as a horror fan and get some updates on his various upcoming projects including a brand new band he's in called Epicaricacy (say that 3 times fast... or even once slowly)Then after we talk Rocktober Blood you'll be treated to a brand new song by JC's badass band Macrocosm (you'll hear it here first folks!).But most importantly (well second most important on an episode with an awesome new song on it) we'll answer the question... is ROCKTOBER BLOOD a BLOODY GOOD FILM?And remember... KEEP IT BLOODY BUDDIES.......#heavymetal #rocktoberblood #macrocosm #agnoxia #Epicaricacy #deaththrash #deathmetal #thrashmetal #rainboweyes #heavymetal #halloween #ActionMovie #ActionMovies #HorrorFilm #HorrorFilms #HorrorMovie #HorrorMovies #ActionPodcast #HorrorPodcast #Slasher #80s #80sHorror #NewPodcast
This amazing channeling tells the complete story of creation, heaven, eden, the earth. An account of origins channeled by Marjorie Livingston “The First Creation radiated from God as an Aura of Magnetism, Energy, and Thought, and became the First Cosmic Radix and the Primordial Orbit of Created Life. . . The First Creation was possessed of cosmic consciousness. Its mind was One with the Parent Mind of the Father-Mother God. It was the issue of the First Act of Creation, which was Emanation. It now underwent the processes of individualisation and of expansion. Out of this sublime Reservoir of Pure Spirit . . there began to form individual nuclei. Light begat darkness, that the Positive gave rise to the Negative Principle, in order that, by co-ordination, they should produce experience, which is the foundation of Ecstasy. Absolute Light . . could have had no conscious existence. Only the comparison of darkness could have made it comprehensible to the mind. Absolute Good would have produced inertia within the evolving fœtus of the primal ego. God . . is the Supreme Macrocosm, the Positive Principle. Emanating from this . . the . . Negative Principle. In this Aspect is embodied the Macrocosm. In the beginning, God. All Life is invested in Him, all knowledge, all intelligence, all consciousness. This is the Supreme Macrocosm, the Father-God, the Positive Principle. Emanating from this Aspect of the Being of all Life, is the Negative Aspect, the source of all Life, the Mother-God, or Negative Principle. In this Aspect is embodied the Microcosm, which contains within itself the potential faculties of the Parental Macrocosm. All Spirit, then, is of God, and is Immaculate. . . . Creation occurs where the great Principle of Life . . acquires . . individual consciousness.

While astrology is a deep topic with thousands of years of study and research behind it, newbies like you and me can still dabble in it to understand ourselves.Beth and Alissa share ideas on why astrology is compelling to people in this generation, and why it can help you understand yourself. Basics of astrology, such as houses, zodiac signs and planets are touched on, as well as how to obtain different charts (for FREE from the interwebs), all to assist you in accepting, loving, and validating yo'self.We hope you'll enjoy the discussion, in all the ways we see eye-to-eye, and in the ways we differ in perspective.Show Notes/Resources: astro.comcafeastrology.com
In this week's episode, we continue our emphasis on “God of the Macrocosm”. He is God of the Big Picture: it means that all things in their purity belong to Him. The false dichotomy, the false antipathy between sacred and secular, and between spiritual and natural is a religious construct that has done much damage. In particular, it has hindered the embrace of Kingdom perspective and perception. This is one of the most vital principles for a Kingdom person to embrace. This episode features an interview with Bishop Noah Rocker, Jr. of Bessemer (greater Birmingham), AL who shares a powerful testimony of the dynamic of Kingdom partnership. Bishop Rocker and his congregation acquired a worship and ministry facility that seemed to be incompatible with their status at the time: providentially, it turns out to have been perfectly appropriate for housing what is becoming a cutting-edge academy specializing in aviation, aeronautics, and other related technological training for young people. What this exciting development in one region in Alabama illustrates for Kingdom people in every region. We are consistently given the opportunity to do what we are called by God to do: to raise up leaders in every sector and every industry of our culture. This is for the glory of God and for the good of people. New podcast episodes are available on Fridays everywhere you listen to podcasts.

It's annoying bugs and annoying old friends this week on "Voyager"! First up: the ship has fallen prey to a swarm of bad CGI super-viruses in "Macrocosm"! After that, Neelix's knowledge runs out just as he runs into a shady old friend who claims he can help in "Fair Trade"! Also this week: kitbashed aliens, leftover episode, and artificial life forms! SPOILER WARNING: major "Picard" season detail discussed in final segment! [timestamps: "Macrocosm": 01:24; "Fair Trade": 23:19; Artificial Life: 44:16] [tumbl along with us! : https://sshbpodcast.tumblr.com/post/684614157365100544/hello-computer-the-best-artificial-lifeforms-in]
Season four begins with a DWO monologue on ego, cognitive bias, the parody of Earth, fake people, and much more. Integrate the lessons of failure to separate yourself from the turkey buzzards by emulating the mentality of an eagle. The eagle is the only bird that charges approaching storms by flying over the chaos while all other birds flee. Yield not to the chaos.
God is God of the Macrocosm – He is the Artist of the “Big Picture”! There have been instances in which believers have departed from the faith because they have been led to believe that the faith of Christ is too narrow – provincial, primitive – to encompass that which is contemporary or modern. However, the “narrow-ness” of which Jesus spoke as the way to eternal life is a narrowness of focus and priority, not a narrowness of mind. All truth is God's truth and is therefore universal, macrocosmic. In the conclusive, powerful interview with Mr. Daniel James II, we are presented with a practical “picture” of how Kingdom principles can impact young lives. In this instance, the God-lens has propelled the young man through an Ivy League education (Cornell University) and has prepared him for world-class graduate work (the prestigious Schwarzman Scholars Program, pursuing studies in Mainland China). This is particularly striking when juxtaposed with the fact that Mr. James originates from within a context that is rural, Southern, impoverished, and African American. Contrary to toxic misconceptions held by far too many people within the Church and outside, a Christian worldview does not “narrow” his aspirations away from greatness: it fuels them! These principles are shown to work favorably, not only for Baby Boomers and Busters, but Millennials and Gen Zs can also find substance for purposeful living within the teachings of the Kingdom of God. Mr. James demonstrates that, rather than rambling around trying to “find oneself,” through the light of Kingdom perspective a person may locate his or her true identity as a world changer --- in Christ. God is not only the Supreme Aesthete in the physical world – He imparts the greater beauty of life-enhancing character and competence from within. With this greater beauty, the Kingdom professional is armed to go forth as a portrait of hope, into all the world. New podcast episodes are available on Fridays everywhere you listen to podcasts.

In a dynamic interview with Mrs. Launa Brown, the proprietor of a well-respected cosmetology business and an events decoration company, “A Beautiful Experience,” she expounds upon how Kingdom principles are the origin and energy of her expanding enterprises. Listen as she explains how she has come to understand that she is “laboring together with God,” I Corinthians 3:9, and that the Kingdom principles, e.g., Genesis 1:26-28, taught in her local church and The Fellowship of Kingdom Professionals (FKP) have become foundational to her success. Despite the fact that she met with detractors and naysayers incredibly early in life, she was able to triumph through the faith instilled by her mother and through applying Biblical precepts. She has embraced a BIG view of God and it has created a BIG view, and manifestation, of His possibility in her. And she is not done because He is not done: she is overcoming by BE-coming, walking out the truth that He is God of the Macrocosm. He's BIG. And the more we can help people to view Him accurately - BIGGER, (“Oh magnify the Lord with me…” Psalm 34:3), the BETTER all of us will be.

Conflict can manifest on a microcosmic or macrocosmic level. There is one solution, no matter the level. And how does this apply to our every day lives? In every single way. There is always some sort of conflict or suffering happening, whether it's a stand off with our kids over chores or stepping back from a work project no longer filling our hearts. Either way, the miracle lies in having a perspective shift.
The Chidambaram Temple dedicated to Lord Nataraja, has a an enclosure , which contains nothing to indicate Akasa Roopa of Shiva, It is considered a Secret which many have tried tom unravel. The Nataraja temple, Chidambaram,Tamil Nadu,India is a representation of the Microcosm and Macrocosm and the temple architecture is designed to resemble Human activities including the number of Breaths taken in a day and the number of Nerve endings in Human Body.There is a Temple near Kottayam in Kerala, India. Dedicated to Lord Shiva as Mahadeva, there is a secret room which is believed to be a powerhouse, is kept locked most of the times, while a lamp is lit. A serpent is reported to be guarding it. The temple houses a Rahasya Ara (secret cabin) where the divine power is located. This is considered a reservoir for the power of the idol. The cabin is well protected with granite stones. A lamp is lighted every day in front of it, before the other main lamps are lighted. A serpent is believed to be sitting in front of this to safeguard the place. There is also a water well, with a perennial spring of cool water. This believed to have a connection with the Ganges, originating from the divine head of Lord Shiva. Although the well is in the uppermost part of the village, its water has never gone below a certain level, even when most of the wells in the village have dried up. How to reach. Ayamkudy is only slightly off from the road linking Kottayam and Ernakulam. Public buses are the best way to access Ayamkudy. There are few dozen buses plying between Kottayam and Vaikom, many of which have stops in Ayamkudy. Alternatively, one can hire a taxi/auto rickshaw from the nearby town of Kaduthuruthy, which is well connected to other cities and towns in the state. Kottayam and Ernakulam are the nearest major railroad stations; Cochin International Airport (IATA: COK) is the nearest airport. The major place near Ayamkudy is Jeriyappan Kavala. The history of the temple or its origin could be dated back as early as 1000 AD. The main idol is a Shivalingam, supposed to have appeared on its own in the homagni (sacred fire) in a Brahmin's house at Ayamkudy. This Brahmin, Namboothiri, was an ardent devotee of Vaikathappan, a temple 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) away. According to legend, he was unable to get to the temple for worship due to his old age, so the deity of that temple (Vaikathappan) appeared in his Upasana Homagni. The temple was constructed later and it stands presently as the top center of the village. There seem to have been seven Ooranma families (owners) of the temple; however, only five still have living members. The present Ooranma Families include Pattamana Illam, Ettikkada Mana, Irishi Illam, Marangatta Mana and Neithasseri Mana.https://ramanisblog.in/2015/04/05/shiva-temple-with-a-secret-powerhouse-thiruvayamkudi/ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ramanispodcast/message
We are back in the final frontier our latest episode talking about Janeway being a badass and viruses (I know, you just cant get enough)-its Macrocosom Show Notes -The World of Viruses: https://hmsc.harvard.edu/world-viruses
The life you desire, the world doesn't give it to you and the world can't take it away! You are the Metaphysical Master of your life experience regardless of what a spiritually desolate society is collectively creating around you. After all, you are a microcosm of the Macrocosm - a little God - lacking in nothing! On this episode, I dive into the meaning behind my song No Apologies from the album Where I Belong and come out with pure conviction about creating our own freedom in the face of hate. Remember, darkness is not a spiritual entity. Only Light, only goodness, is a spiritual entity and all that doesn't reflect this light is merely the absence of light. The darkness can never withstand the light. Be the light. Support the show (http://Patreon.com/LeviKreis)
In this episode, the boys are joined with Ben Allison and go through an entire handle of Tortilla Gold Tequila and attempt to wrap their minds around the deep known and unknown of space while Jake explains in real time his understanding of the Cosmos.
