Mind Trap - Le trappole mentali25 - Neomania bias: quando il nuovo ci ingannaIl fascino del nuovo è irresistibile: un’app appena uscita, un metodo “rivoluzionario”, un corso “next-gen”. Ma quante volte la novità è solo un’illusione di miglioramento?Il Neomania Bias ci spinge a sopravvalutare tutto ciò che è nuovo solo perché è nuovo — sottovalutando ciò che funziona già. In questa puntata esploriamo perché il cervello ama il cambiamento, come il marketing lo sfrutta, e come ritrovare equilibrio tra curiosità e consapevolezza.

Neomania10. Capital Bending and Gray Market Futures w/ Chairman BirbExploring financial speculation, medical self-experimentation, and why some people bet on radically different futures.I'm joined by Chairman Birb Bernanke (@bonecondor), pseudonymous crypto twitter cryptid, event organizer, and founder of The Secret Soup Company. We trace the strange currents of speculation as culture, from meme coins and financial nihilism to the art of "capital bending" where attention becomes money and money becomes momentum.Birb shares her personal experiments with gray-market biotech, DIY peptide regimens, and the shifting line between treatment and enhancement. We talk about "jester's privilege" online, the embodied politics of the squishy future...

Together we dig into how cultural fracking has left our collective imagination hollowed out, what it means to treat worlds as a creative medium, and why protocols and infrastructures may be the real artforms of the future.We discuss copyright battles from Napster to Disney to AI training data, the parallels between hip-hop sampling and machine learning, and how solarpunk thrives not just...

2025-06-2239 minNeomania7. Stochastic Funnerism and Autonomous Media w/ @somewheresyA deep dive into media evolution, generative chaos, attention economics, and the uncertain frontiers of digital cultureIn this episode, I'm joined by digital performance artist, developer, musician, and creative provocateur, @somewheresy. Together, we explore our turbulent media ecosystem—one where longevity grows elusive, songs become shorter and catchier by algorithmic necessity, and the temperature of attention economics continues to rise.We discuss the evolving role of podcasts as both a medium and genre still in its infancy, question why legacy media icons maintain cultural dominance despite the fragmentation brought on by the internet, and co...

Memetic Alignment and Vector Vibes w/ @deepfatesExploring AI alignment, meme theory, and how high-dimensional spaces are reshaping human knowledge.I'm joined by @deepfates, an internet thinker, dirtbag futurist, and meme theorist. We dive into the nuances of AI alignment beyond the typical pro/anti dichotomy and explore how language models are creating a new relationship between humans and semantic space. We examine the memecoin AI Agent "Bot Swarm Incident" as a real-world AI alignment challenge, discuss my concept of the "Vector Episteme" - how high-dimensional mathematical spaces are transforming our understanding of knowledge itself, and consider why magical metaphors provide surprisingly useful...
2025-03-051h 46Neomania5. Midtopias and Blue Sky Futures w/ LastNPCAlexExploring decentralized social networks, sci-fi world-building, and why the future might be surprisingly mid.I'm joined by Alex (LastNPCAlex), a physicist and author of the sci-fi novel "A Mote in Shadow." We dive into why Bluesky's decentralized approach might be worth burning your social graph for, how to build believable tech interfaces in a space-faring sci-fi future, and a surprisingly rigorous approach to faster-than-light travel that doesn't entirely handwave the physics away. We explore the concept of "midtopias" - where we'll neither get our techno-utopia nor face apocalyptic doom, but instead land somewhere entertainingly weird in between...
2025-02-252h 00Neomania4.

We dive into his audacious philosophy where being kind might just be the most radical act of all. Our conversation spans from Silicon Valley's shortcomings to why the future must include space for everyone - not just the privileged few. And if we can sell you an apocalypse prep food bucket along the way, all the better.-it's ya boi

The Gist TalkAntifragile 6: Things That Gain from DisorderThis episode explore the concept of antifragility, arguing that robustness comes from embracing randomness and avoiding fragility. It emphasizes subtractive knowledge, focusing on what's wrong rather than what's right, and proposes "via negativa," a less-is-more approach to decision-making. The author applies these principles to various fields, including technology, medicine, and forecasting, advocating for simplicity and skepticism over complex, interventionist approaches. He highlights the dangers of neomania, the love of novelty for its own sake, and promotes a respect for the past and the Lindy effect, which suggests the longer something has existed, the longer it's likely to last.
