How to save the planet?
Do we all remember what Terence said when asked about how to save the world? "make as much art as possible" in hi opinion this is the most efficient way to understand each other. that's why I think that artists will save the planet. not engineers, not IT professionals, not financial moguls. it will be the artists. what do you think? and what art form are you practicing?

Put the art pedal to the metal! Dance, sing, paint, recite poetry etc. I think this philosophy of life exists fully in Bali. There is definitely something to the idea of living fully in the creative space. More power to the right brain and communicating with other humans in a variety of different dimensions. You see his push for a visual language. The idea that the visionary Ayahuasca space was part of human evolution, just as the mushroom helped to form language.

I've read all of them I think. Archaic revival is more a collection of articles of my memory serves me correctly. Invisible landscape really gets into the nitty gritty of the time wave and contains the ultimate tale of the experiment at la chorerra, while food of the gods contains his major stoned ape this. I am probably mixing some things up in my mind, I don't remember exactly what true hallucinations was about. I was lucky enough to meet Dennis in Asheville in the early 2000s and get imy copy of invisible landscape signed.

The Peculiar Humor Of Terence McKenna
0 likes • Dec '24
Yes, I've enjoyed watching these videos in the past! Thanks for posting these! What comes to mind when I think of his humor was the joke he made about packrats which would trade nuggets of gold for random trinkets "trading with varmints 😁" is how he phrased it
TMK and AI
Duncan Russell was playing around with the idea of giving his AI different voices and characteristics to respond to his inquiries, which led me to the idea that having the AI respond in the sound and sensibility of Terence. I already asked ChatGPT to write a short essay in the style of T on the topic of general AI and the conjunction of the discovery of alien co-habitation on earth and the reply was very poetic and interesting.

@Chr Esc Right, it's definitely not him but I do post a lot of comments and put out a lot of material with the idea that AI will have more detail to either understand or replicate me. I can totally understand someone who would think this might undermine the purity, but for me I wanted to at least see what the result would be.

@Eva Petakovic Yes, I remember watching this a while back but forgot about it, this is basically what I'm talking about. It's funny how positive and healthy these AI are, I might add a touch more cynicism to take the edge off of the pristine digital feel of it.
Just getting started
This is very early on but I wanted to send out invitations to all the long-time McKennites who have been in the original Facebook group, and to some folks on Reddit, but eventually I will build this up into a very informative place for anyone interested in Terence's ideas. Thanks for joining, feel free to post anything!

I think this is good that's it's its own community not on FB or reddit.

Creative, into TMK for long time, learned all about the mushroom, the time wave, Ayahuasca and the poetic languaging of fleeting ideas from him.
