Summary

Guest speaker: Mikey Siegel PROGRAM NOTES: “Technology is a manifestation of mind.” Mikey Siegel, Consciousness Hacker Have you ever given any thought to the proposition that perhaps human well-being, or enlightenment, may be approached through engineering? In today's podcast, which is the 2014 Palenque Norte Lecture given by Mikey Siegel, you are going to learn not only about the possibilities of such a thing as engineering enlightenment, you are also going to learn about the rapid advances that have been made in this field during the past five years. Mikey Siegel is one of the pioneers of what has come to be known as “consciousness hacking”, which is a hands-on-approach to making new tools for self-exploration.

Greetings from Cyberdelic Space

0:19.0

This is Lorenzo and I'm your host here in the Psychedelic Salon.

0:24.1

And before I introduce today's program, I want to let you know about a little addition that I made to our program notes blog,

0:31.0

which, as you probably know, you can get to via Psychedelic Salon.us.

0:35.8

As you may know, for a long time, I've displayed one of my email addresses on that site,

0:41.6

but over time it's attracted so many spammers as, well, it's almost useless right now.

0:47.6

And so at long last, and after many requests, I finally got off a dead center and added some contact information, or I should say a contact form, to our site.
