198 - Be Weird, Survive, and Get Back To the Campfire

On this episode, Kris and JDO talk:

Uneasiness at work, the notion of time passing, teachers moving on, how to create amazing life stories, working on fishing boats in the North Sea.

What is the psychology of someone who chooses to be homeless? How are some people built for adventure and others aren’t?

Japanese cholos, psychotronic imagery, syncretic religions, and abandoned asylums.

“Memory is what’s happening when you’re not forgetting.”

Looking to other world traditions for a way forward. The beauty in imperfections. The importance of aesthetics is not what you think. What’s blue and smells like red paint?

The Christian Reformation was the most significant thing to happen to the Western World. Modern myths are the fertile ground of modern morality. JDO explains Berserk to Kris.

Female- and male-centric energy in mythos. The connection between Maimonides and Spinoza.

JDO draws dead phones. Reverse the steps. Tang tonguelers. The oscillation between immersive storylines and passive experiences in dreams. The ghost disease of language. Emblematic strength.
