In this episode of the Psychedelics Design Podcast, host Alexandra Plesner interviews Dr. Bruce Damer and Matt Gillespie from MINDS.
The discussion explores the intersection of psychedelics, design, and scientific breakthroughs. Dr. Bruce Damer, an astrobiologist, shares his experiences using mindfulness and psychedelics to achieve key insights in his scientific work, including his hot spring hypothesis for the origin of life. He discusses the concept of "endotrips" (internally generated insights) and "exotrips" (psychedelic-assisted insights) and how combining the two can lead to innovative solutions.
Matt Gillespie discusses his background in industrial design and his belief that psychedelics can shift our fundamental understanding of the world, leading to a more sustainable and innovative future.
