Shownotes Transcript

Musician and teacher Jorge Mesa joins InnerVerse for a chat about the emerging generations who have been raised on video games, and how society is changing as a result. What are the pros and cons of spending so much time in digital space? Is there a balance between escapism, personal responsibility, and freedom of imagination? How have these games been manipulated to socially engineer and colonize the human mind? We ask all these questions and more.

In the Plus+ Extension, we dip into the deeper end by exploring Simulacra and Simulation, the pop culture inverted Gnosis of the simulation theory type, and whether or not the experience of incarnation in this life could be compared to playing a game.
