What does it mean to be conscious? What is the relationship between consciousness and the unconscious? What is the connection between consciousness and conscience?

Recorded live in Melbourne at August's Underground, join Tim Adalin, founder and host of Voicecraft, and philosopher, counsellor and independent researcher Cameron Duffy for an evening of dialogue with mystery, metaphysics, depth psychology and social philosophy.

Tickets are now available for the next Underground Philosophy in Melbourne on September 12 @ https://www.voicecraft.io/events

Cameron has spent his adult lifetime exploring the nature of being, healing, and human possibility through the transformation of consciousness. He discovered the non-dual potential of conscious experience during his early adult development and has been focused on the scientific, alchemical, and embodied philosophies that bind the nature of consciousness with the meaning making journey. Cam is otherwise dedicated to re-vitalising modern psychiatric culture and psychedelic integration by synergizing an awareness of the sacred with harmonic modes of relationship and practice.

Is there hope for the internet and decentralised communications technology? Led by Tim Adalin, this dialogue explores the existential context, shadow, and potential associated with emerging network coordination technologies, with civilisation theorist and political economist Michel Bauwens (P2P Cooperative), regenerative entrepreneur and collective intelligence practitioner Ferananda Ibarra (Holochain, The Commons Engine), and technology design philosopher and Infinite Reality Engine co-founder Josh Field.

Relating with notions of God, choice, difference, intuition, belonging, confession... with Jordan Hall, Forrest Landry, and Joey S. Robinson II.

In early July, Joey reached out on Twitter following a Voicecraft dialogue with John Vervaeke, expressing interest in John, Jordan, and Forrest having a dialogue on the podcast. John was unable to make it on the day.

At the end of the opening, the attempt I made to compress the previous few minutes into a question will likely come across very unclear. Here is a breakdown of the core parts of that orientation:

how do we / what is it to:

relate, when perceptions / valuations about our gods might be different,

taking place in a toxic global / digital communication context,

given the importance of really hearing and caring for self / other / world.
