Exploring Self through Predictive Processing and Capitalist Realism

On this episode, I explore data capitalism, acid communism, and the psychedelic ties between them, with Emma Stamm.

Emma holds a PhD in cultural & social thought, and works at the intersections of the philosophy of technology, critical theory, and science and technology studies. She has taught at both NYU & Virginia Tech, and is now a professor in the philosophy department at Villanova University.

Our conversation explores the relationship between data capitalism & consciousness, using psychedelic science as a way of illuminating those aspects of consciousness that cannot be rendered via data's language.

Enjoy!
