Podcasts about psychedelic information theory

James is a Seattle-based programmer and author of "Psychedelic Information Theory: Shamanism in the Age of Reason".  He is also the former publisher of Psychedelic Illuminations and Trip Magazine, and the creator of the DoseNation blog and podcast.

In this episode, we discuss nonlinear feedback amplifiers, strange attractors at burning man and elsewhere, lucid dreams, brainwashing, shamanic techniques and his awesome record collection among other tidbits. 

James Kent has been studying psychedelics for over twenty-five years. He was the editor of Psychedelic Illuminations Magazine, publisher of Trip Magazine, and founder of DoseNation.com. His book, Psychedelic Information Theory, is an examination of the physical processes behind psychedelic hallucination. His latest project is the final ten episodes of the DoseNation podcast, where he explores the darker side of psychedelics and the psychedelic community. His 'Final Ten Episodes Of DoseNation' is an unapologetic and unbarred exploration of his questions criticisms, and exposures of the psychedelic culture from his 25 years of immersion and his first-hand experiences of psychosis, psychotic episodes, and even ketamine addiction. I am happy to have him on the show to explore some of the themes of psychosis, psychotic episodes and delusional mania in the psychedelic community. This is not only because I consider them essential for the ongoing psychedelic discourse but because they have been personally impactful and helpful for myself.   *** Support Us On Patreon!
