The Rebirth Of Magic - AI Short Film (Terence McKenna)

No one could articulate things as well as Terence McKenna. He was light years ahead of his time and had incredible foresight thanks to his psilocybin friends. This video is excellently made, well done.

I`m not surprised if someone caught seizure after watching this, my head dizzy after watchin this

Very cool!

This feels like a dream from the future to me. Slightly nostalgic, mostly curious but a little afraid.

This was beautiful

Terence McKenna never died he still talking relevant stuff even today he's going to be like the Oracle in the simulation or something

Terence McKenna one of the greatest philosophers we had in the past 100 years

🔥

Correct ✅ ❤

The Last Prophet

Thanks for a little bit of Terence this nice afternoon. <3

Wow this video was perfect!! Did you use Dall-E to make this? So so so gooood!! ❤️❤️

Mckenna’s take was before Big Tech co-opted all of this to funnel us via algorithms, social profiles and digital saccharine (AR/VR) down consumer pathways. Now the “magic” of this code is just used to siphon time, money, energy and attention. Mckenna was speaking early as the internet and tech like VR hadn’t been fully commercialized.

This is absolutely mind blowing. I'm grateful to be here for the unraveling of this technology. Ai art will change everything.

We are beings in languaging

Absolutely love it, wow..

change is too fast

@ShotsOfAwe

Wow! thank you, Peace.

Sorry Skynet, not interested in going Borg.

Terence was ahead of his time. 💓

Simply Incredible!

just the inspiration i needed to continue this self taught coding journey ive been on for some time now. thanks

Amazing, will share this.
More of this kind please.

This is absolutely incredible! inspiring

Awesome!

beautiful

The prophet speaks again

Beautiful!

Where did these Ideas come from;
a mage, waving a stick in the air followed by fire from the sky? The magical speech, which sounds bizzare but produces effects... Magicians looking into the black mirror, and talking to others across great distances?

Did the machine elves inadvertently show us the tech and we copied it? Was it the stylus that was waived in the air on the screen only the user can see? Was the bizzare sounding spell, just a coding language spoken into, again, a mic only the user knew where it sat?

This animation is superb!

how is this made though? how is it generated by AI? Is an image fed into a programme? I don't understand what an AI render actually means

I have never commented before
This is a magnificent art. Such a great time for living to see all stuff like this
Thank you

unreal

were all gathered here on the internet for a special moment.thank you for listening and reading this comment and know that we are all connected through our home we share,planet earth.

🔮
We live in condensations of our imagination.
Our assumptions are the edges of our worlds. Human beings are co-partners with deity in the project of being. This is the basis of all magic.

How can we know who is the other until we know who is the self? The content of the dialogue with 'the Other' is a content that indicates that man's horizons are infinitely bright, that death is in fact, well, as Thomas Vaughn put it, 'the body is the placenta of the soul'.

The purpose of life is to familiarize oneself with this after-death body so that the act of dying will not create confusion in the psyche.

...the mind is more powerful than any imaginable particle accelerator, more sensitive than any radio receiver or the largest optical telescope, more complete in its grasp of information than any computer: the human body- its organs, its voice, its powers of locomotion, and its imagination- is a more-than-sufficient means for the exploration of any place, time or energy level in the universe.

The human imagination, in conjunction with technology, has become a force so potent that it really can no longer be unleashed on the surface of the planet with safety. Cultures are virtual realities made of language.

No culture on earth is as heavily narcotized as the industrial West in terms of being inured to the consequences of maladaptive behavior. We pursue a business-as-usual attitude in a surreal atmosphere of mounting crises and irreconcilable contradictions.

The apocalypse is not something which is coming. The apocalypse has arrived in major portions of the planet and it’s only because we live within a bubble of incredible privilege and social insulation that we still have the luxury of anticipating the apocalypse.

Our culture takes us out of the body and sells our loyalty into political systems, into religions, into inanimate objects and machines, collections, so forth and so on. The felt experience of the body is what the psychedelics are handing back to us.

Apparently there is a great discovery or insight which our culture is deliberately designed to suppress, distort, and ignore. That is that nature is some kind of minded entity. That nature is not simply the random flight of atoms through electromagnetic fields. Nature is not the empty, despiritualized , lumpen matter that we inherit from modern physics. But it is instead a kind of intelligence, a kind of mind.

The way out then is personal responsibility, new operating systems downloaded from outside of culture, which means from the deeper wisdom of the psychedelic plants and then a commitment to community and a motto of "To the future, without fear!" Without fear!

Don't worry. You don't know enough to worry. . . . Who do you think you are that you should worry, for cryin' out loud. It's a total waste of time. It presupposes such a knowledge of the situation that it is, in fact, a form of hubris.

What the psychedelic experience really is, is opening the doorway into a lost continent of the human mind, a continent that we have almost lost all connection to, and the nature of this lost world of the human mind is that it is a Gaian entelechy.

The fungi became, or is for some mysterious reason still to be discovered, a pipeline into a mind, an entelechy, which we can only image as feminine and can only associate somehow to the environment, to the ecosystem. This is the Gaian mind. This is what the goddess really is. The goddess is a network of connective intelligence that is operating on this planet.

A global society is coming into being, a global society that is made out of information that was not intended to be ours, but is ours, by the mistaken invention of computers and the printing press, information is power, and information has spilled by the clumsy hands of the dominator culture so that the information is everywhere, never before has the situation been so fluid, we might be able to finally have a crack at this.

Part of what is wrong with our society, and hence with ourselves, is that we consume images, we don't produce them. We need to produce, not consume, media. You are some kind of a mystery suspended between two eternities. And in that moment, when a mind looks out at a world and asks the question, ‘What is it?’ In that moment art can be created.

When we free ourselves we are not freed into a void. When we free ourselves we are freed into a dimension in which Art is an obligation. It seems to me that information is the thing which uses matter, uses light, uses spirit, uses whatever it can put its hands on to organize itself into higher and higher levels of self-reflection.

The Internet is light at the end of the tunnel. I don't care if it's being used to peddle pornography, I don't care if it's being trivialized in a thousand ways. Anything can be trivialized. The important point is that it is leveling the playing field of global society. It is creating de-facto an entirely new set of political realities. None of the constipated, oligarchic structures that are resisting this were ever asked. Their greed betrayed them into investing in this in the first place without ever fully grasping what the implications of it were for their larger agenda. We are the inheritors of a million years of striving for the unspeakable.

What is needed is a spirit of boundary dissolution, between individuals, between classes, sexual orientations, rich and poor, man and woman, intellectual and feeling toned types. If this can happen, then we will make a new world. And if this doesn't happen, nature is fairly pitiless and has a place for us in the shale of this planet, where so many have preceded us.

Terence McKenna

I'm shaking right now... It's like he could see all of this happening so many years in advance... he really was privy to what happens behind time and was able to foretell it.

This video is exactly what he ment

That was cool!

Interesting

one of the greatest things anyone will witness on YT

AI for Prophets not Profits... ☘

It's happening.

A simple thank you

🌀🐒♾🍄🌀 “Make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick.”
― Terence McKenna 🌀🐒♾🍄🌀

Terence's mind would have blown if he had have seen ChatGPT and generative vide like RunwayML.

The guy predicted this kind of thing continually in his talks. A true visionary. 🎉

a wizard of words.... rip mckenna

I’m in awe and also suspicious that this is an ai generated speech too.

Can you direct me to a place that I can have text converted into an ai rendition of Terence mckenna’s voice? Because this is incredible, many thanks and much love ❤
