Show Notes

In Reality Reminded, acclaimed Dutch filmmaker Hans Busstra shares his research for a new documentary about metaphysical idealism. In this first episode, he takes us back to what first fired his interest in idealism: his fascination with conscious artificial intelligence. Diving into the idea of spiritual machines, he found himself stumbling upon metaphysical and mathematical problems that point away from materialism.

Could it be that we've 'un'minded reality and that we now need to 're'mind it? 

This first episode features archival footage from Ray Kurzweil and Yuval Noah Harari, and exclusive interviews with Meghan O’ Ghieblyn, Jeffrey J. Kripal and Roger Penrose.
