Samantha Sweetwater (author of The Wisdom of WTF?!? and the forthcoming book True Human), Jahan Khamsehzadeh (author of The Psilocybin Connection), and Ian-Michael Hebert (founder of Holos Global) met in an intimate elixir bar high above the fray of the conference to riff on what it will take to have the psychedelic renaissance so many of us THOUGHT we were helping incubate and midwife (as opposed to what we got).✨ Support Future Fossils:• Subscribe to (and review!)

Ricardo Baca is a 20-year veteran journalist and cannabis futurist, widely respected in both modern media and drug-policy circles. He was appointed The Denver Post's first-ever cannabis editor in 2013 and founded the news vertical The Cannabist, where he extensively covered the advent of the U.S. adult-use cannabis market and related issues around the world, as seen in the feature documentary Rolling Papers.We talk to Ricardo about the intersection of cannabis and psychedelics based on his observations attending the 2023 Psychedelic Science Conference in Denver. We also talk about the positive media coverage from the likes of Rolling Stone and Vice about the event and how that compares to the critical coverage cannabis gets. We also discuss the paths of legalization with psychedelics getting leverage by needing only FDA approval for each treatment while cannabis needs policymakers. We also discuss Ricardo's appointment as a board member to the Natural Medicine Advisory Board in Colorado under the leadership of Colorado Governor Jared Polis.  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

An honest recap of MAPS' Psychedelic Science conference is offered by our co-hosts Jimmy Nguyen and Nicholas Levich. After attending the event, they compiled a list of key takeaways that they firmly believe the public should be informed about.As the largest modern gathering of psychedelic enthusiasts comes to a close, our hosts open up about the disappointing motivations that seem to be running this space. They describe the different types of people in attendance and the personal and financial interests that appear to pervade the sanctity of their psychedelic offerings. Is the psychedelic space really on the rise, or are we witnessing the exploitation of yet another natural medicine to appease American consumerist ideals? How can you tell if a company is in it for profit or if their intentions are based on genuine care for their clients' wellbeing?From BIPOC and indigenous fetishizing to open drug abuse and proprietary scams, Nicholas and Jimmy share eye-opening experiences that reshaped their perspective on the current state of psychedelic medicine in America. Additional Resources:Episode Transcript An Honest Recap of MAPS Psychedelic Science Conference    How to Avoid Consumerist Traps in the Psychedelic IndustryIs One Guided Psychedelic Therapy Session Enough?        About Us:Psychedelic Passage is the nation's first psychedelic concierge service.

It really allows people to follow their passion and responsibility. It breaks up a lot of these social norms we have… you can invite a conversation – spontaneously, without being prepared for it – you can share knowledge, you can ask for knowledge. Open Space mixes it all up… which really allows for emergence, allows for new things that were there to come forth and be created.” – Maya RimerSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Iconic psychiatrist and founder of holotropic breathwork, Stanislav Grof, pulls up a seat at the 2017 Psychedelic Science Conference to discuss his area of expertise; birth archetypes, ego death, non-ordinary states of consciousness, and the questions that no one wants to attempt to answer.

I’m an old guy, I may not live to see a whole lot more of the changes that are undoubtedly going to happen, but I would sure like to. I try to be an optimist. I’d like to hope that through education and science and clear thinking and good communication we come to sort of a passive understanding of the stuff we need to do – rather than having any ‘conspiracy’ organizations shoving it down everybody’s throats. We can have creativity and BETTER lives, rather than just more and more and more.” This week our guest is visionary artist Mark Henson, whose highly detailed and frequently erotic landscape paintings portray the full spectrum of human experience, our greatest dreams and most disturbing nightmares. Mark’s been a friend and elder to me since we met in 2010 and I was delighted to catch up with him at this year’s Psychedelic Science Conference in Oakland – please excuse the background noise in this recording as you enjoy this festive and far-ranging conversation about art, life, and creativity! Mark's WebsiteMark's Facebook Page TOPICS: - Viewing and making art as time travel. - Will artificial intelligence replace artists? - Can we understand the universe? - Altered sense of time self in dreams and psychedelic experiences. - How technology has crept into our memory and dream lives. - The necessity of Universal Basic Income AND Life Purpose in an automated post-work world. - “The Work” of ayahuasca users and telepathic post-humans (on social media) of being open to the intensity and burden of collective experience. - The importance of an intentional media diet. - How Mark got to collaborate with Jimi Hendrix as a teenager! - Mark’s thoughts on the history and evolving intersection of Street Art, Fine Art, and Live Music. - How different musical styles and intoxicants contribute to different media ecosystems. - How Mark and his stepson almost got one of his paintings into the White House. - Projected art as graffiti and political action; augmented reality graffiti as the future of dissent, and geospatial metadata as a new cyberpunk Wild West – metagraffiti. - Defacing ads and reclaiming public space, a polite How To. - The future of the family.

That didn’t happen, so I’m not going to hold my breath on a Singularity.” “Sometimes I have fairly vivid dreams where, if the dream is strong enough, later on when I’m awake I might confuse that reality with something that happened in my waking moments. Did I dream that, or did that really happen to me ten years ago. What about this little experience? Was that a dream, or…I can’t quite remember. Sometimes that happens to me, and I actually like that, because if I can blur the boundaries between that world and this one, I think it’s more interesting.” “Maybe if the Singularity happens, or Artificial Intelligence gets intelligent enough to be a frustrated, nervous wreck over wanting to express itself to the point of absolute fanaticism where it has to create something new in the world…I would love to see that, actually. See what comes out.” “Do I want to live in a Borg mind where I know what you’re thinking and you know what I’m thinking? No, I do not, because that’ll clog up my thoughts.” “Everybody is radiating self-expression some way or another. It’s one of our basic human desires. How do we not be swamped in all the static? It’s like we’re running 300 radios at one time. It’s hard to listen to one particular song. So somehow we have to filter things out. It’s sort of essential just to keep sane.” “The essence of our culture war is an economic war, in a sense…if you have a good psychedelic experience, you realize that the beauty of a sunset is of more importance than a pallet full of $100 bills.” “I think if the humans manage to manage ourselves, we’ll be able o accomplish managing nature so that nature can still be nature…and maybe we’ll have a few friendly helpful robots as well.” Future Fossils Intro/Outro Music: "God Detector" by Skytree (feat.
