Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

🎙️#11 Adriana Forte: Menstrual Futurism
Q: So was it the entry point to your work that kids sparked the critique of modernity and the mismatch between human rhythm and living rhythm?
Adriana explains that becoming a mother and examining her body's rhythms led her to question modernity; she sought a framework that respects cyclical biology rather than forcing a linear, male-aligned timeline.
#9 Layman Pascal - Metashamanic Nietzsche
Q: Is there someone you'd like to amplify?
There's an Australian developmental thinker named Adriana Forte, who is interested in bringing gender difference and cyclic thinking into contemporary discussions.
#9 Layman Pascal - Metashamanic Nietzsche
Q: Did you ever think about becoming an expert in Pascal?
I've always appreciated any attempt to probe the syntactical processes of the structure of reality, but I found programming too dull and uninteresting.
#8 Stefano Carpani: Jungians vs. Post-Jungians vs. Neo-Jungians
Q: What does it look like for the unconscious to bring that into the everyday?
Patient experiences, including analyzing dreams, can reveal complex feelings and issues individuals face.
#8 Stefano Carpani: Jungians vs. Post-Jungians vs. Neo-Jungians
Q: Can you give us a sense for what these terms are?
There are distinctions between original Jungians, post-Jungians, and neo-Jungians, all of which have evolved from Jung's teachings.
