I’m intrigued to hear you mention magic. My current slogan is “Tech. Magic. Action.”, which I believe are the three pillars needed.
I’m a software engineer and technical director of my own media studio. I have recently been trying to nudge my career into that next level where I combine creativity with technology and just tell people what I do is magic, so I don’t have to go too deep into the inner workings of things. I can explain the how, but honestly over the years I’ve learned people don’t want to know how things work, or why we do them, they just want to reap the benefits.
In Jodorowsky’s Technopriests, the protagonist seeks to guide his people to a place where they can establish a new society. One where harmonious human relationships are valued more than technological prowess corrupted by an excess of total science and a total lack of consciousness.
I wonder how we can replicate such a journey in real life. Because it’s desperately needed.
If you’re lucky enough to live in Australia, get to know the Aboriginal people in your local community. Attend some Indigenous cultural events as a learner. White culture has forgotten how to value relationships over technology, but Indigenous culture still remembers. Just remember not to be a nuisance. Listen, be respectful, and do what you can to give as much help as you receive.
Jodorowski is a loon with zero qualifications in science or philosophy. I’m not sure why a person would take anything he says about reality with anything less than a grain of salt. Especially when it eschews actual, real, science.
