This week on Vitruvian 5000 Nick & Jesse dive into philosophical discussions on panpsychism and simulation theory. Nick explains panpsychism as the idea that the base reality of the universe is a field of consciousness, which our brains transmit. 

The conversation then transitions to Nick Bostrom's simulation theory, suggesting future technology could recreate our reality billions of times, making the likelihood of us living in base reality minimal. We also discuss the implications of this theory on life's meaning, touching on advances in VR technology and its potential connection to ancient philosophies and religion.

Let’s get weird!
