In this episode we talk about The Matrix Reloaded, specifically the scene where Neo speaks with the Oracle. Deep philosophical implications can be inferred from this simple interaction between the trilogies two most complicated characters. Far reaching and highly significant insights can be extrapolated from this dialogue and applied to our own existential intelligence.

In this episode we look at the mechanics of Edge. What does it mean to lean into the Edge and have the slight ability over others - and ourselves? How can we divide the difference between cutting Edge and personal Edge? We look at Extreme Sports, Music and Business as examples. We also extend the concept of Edge into personality traits such as dignity, eccentricity, conformity and adventurousness. Ultimately Edge is the line between what’s real and what’s not, what’s possible and what’s not, a line we should all be stepping closer to, every chance we get.

In this special edition of the Andrew Lake Podcast, Andrew shares his personal experiences with Time Travel, going 600 years into the future. How this expedition was organised, how Time Travel works, where he went, what he found, what it’s like to Time Travel and many other questions are answered from a firsthand point of view. Andrew shares his feelings around ‘paradigm shock’ and what it’s like to see another world. This is an intimate and vulnerable episode for Andrew as Time Travel is a highly emotional event – some things are too large for the human mind to comprehend.

Where has technology taken humanity in the last 600 years? How has culture and our cohesive social institutions changed? Economics, family, automation, Artificial Intelligence, entertainment and a full range of human experiences are all discussed in detail.  The question of whether or not climate change and nuclear war have any part to play in the future of our species is also answered. Some of the issues addressed are too difficult for Andrew to speak about without becoming emotional. Time Travel is an extraordinary once in a lifetime opportunity that happened to a simple nobody, who in this episode, shares everything.

We will be taking submissions for a Q&A follow-up episode if there is enough interest.

Byrd is an Artist, Sculptor and Muralist based in Canberra, the capital of Australia. In this interview he has cake at tea with Andrew at the Byrd sanctuary – a tranquil environment with intricate ambiance. We discuss the mechanics of art mediums and subject materials and distinguish between a place and a space in relation to the creation of Art. Graffiti, Wabi Sabi philosophy, Richard Long, the definition of intention and the economics of being an artist are but a few of the topics further discussed in this relaxed conversation.

We are also joined by Hoon – Byrd’s wife – for further philosophical discussions

We also explain fixed costs, controllable costs and variable costs. Businesses generally fall into two main categories of either product-based or service-based as their mode of generating value. There are many large components to Business including; operations, marketing, economic climates, pricing, branding and production, all off which can be analysed in various amounts of detail. Business Management is a perfect analogy of cognition and intellect; therefore it serves as a stepping stone in our overall journey towards understanding.
