In this episode of the Re-Patterning Podcast, we're joined by media theorist Douglas Rushkoff to discuss the societal and technological patterns that govern our lives. We explore themes from Rushkoff's book 'Team Human,' including how technology programs our behavior, the nature of work in an automated future, and the importance of human connection. The conversation delves into the mindset of billionaires, the need for leisure over accumulation, and the collective grief experienced in society. We also touch on the concept of 'figure and ground' in relation to technology and humanity, and the importance of finding joy and nourishment in life. The episode concludes with a discussion on Rushkoff's upcoming graphic novel, 'Post Humans: A Mycopunk Fable,' which explores psychedelic experiences and societal transformation.

In our inaugural episode of The Re-Patterning Podcast, Arden is joined by her teacher, Grant Morrison, a living legend in the realm of comic books, story telling, and contemporary chaos magick. Our conversation delves into chaos magick, the concept of repatterning, and the programmability of consciousness. We explore the dual nature of repatterning, discussing how it can be used for both positive and negative transformations. Our discussion also touches on the importance of plurality in identity, the myth of the individual, and the daily practices that enhance one's magical journey. This first episode emphasizes the significance of curiosity and the responsibility that comes with understanding one's consciousness.
