FUTURE FOSSILS

Michael Garfield

Join paleontologist-futurist Michael Garfield and an avalanche of amazing guests for deep but irreverent discussions at the edge of the known and knowable: on prehistory and post-humanity and deep time, non-human agency and non-duality, science fiction and self-fulfilling prophecies, complex systems and sustainability (or lack thereof), psychedelics as a form of training for proliferating futures,... more

  • I dug this up while visiting the future and could not put it down until returning

    Future Fossils allows Michael Garfield’s expansie pan-exclectic hyper-integrating genious and curiosity to spill out of its mysterious source, prod some of the most interesting thinkers of our time into a reverie of collaborative insight generation, and shine out through the internet to enlighten, disquite, and entertain us all. FF is one of the original and still very relevant portals into emerging post-post-modern thought and radical possibility-scapes. Good stuff.

  • Eclectic, insightful, and entertaining

    An eclectic thinker if there ever was one. Michael is comfortable discussing everything from AI to dinosaurs to psychedelics to the evolution of the eye —plus jazz, aliens, and creativity among other things. I can’t say I always understand everything he says, but I always come away with a few new thoughts and a helluvalotta books/movies/music to dive into.

  • Warning: Listening to FUTURE FOSSILS may cause intelligent thoughts.

    In a time when most media seems to be compressing the English language, and human thought, into the lowest common denominator. Michael Garfield and his Guests are expanding the cultural landscape with fractal flames of ideas that push us to new horizons and beyond. Each episode is like a portal into a possible future that I couldn’t have imagined and that renews my hope in humanity. Michael’s skill as an interviewer and desire to collaborate and share ideas is a strong reminder that we need ... more
