    From Scarcity to Ubuntu with Mamadou Touré

    What happens when ancestral wisdom meets frontier tech? In this conversation, Mamadou Touré — founder of Ubuntu Tribe — lays out a living philosophy of “shared prosperity” where finance becomes regenerative, transparent, and truly inclusive. We explore: Ubuntu as a practical operating system for business (“I am because we are”) Why Western finance skews toward accumulation (collateral + info asymmetry) and how Islamic and Ubuntu logics differ Tokenized, gold-backed assets and traceable, mercury-free supply chains as a path beyond extraction Scarcity as a social spell vs. abundance as practice — and how language (“economy” = oikos nomos, laws of the home) shapes reality AI and blockchain as tools for integrity and transparency, not control — the “finance + technology + spirituality” trifecta Africa’s role in the next era: youth leadership, cultural memory, and a rising planetary consciousness A few moments you’ll love: the “candy basket” story of collective joy, re-reading Malthus in an exponential tech age, and Mamadou’s closing seed: “All is one, and one is all.” Mamadou is Founder and CEO of Ubuntu Group focused on Advisory and Investment activities across industries and aimed at supporting firms in Africa achieving scalable and sustainable growth on the continent. He previously worked in global finance (Deloitte, IFC/World Bank, GE Capital) and has been recognized by Forbes and the World Economic Forum for his pioneering work at the intersection of finance, technology, and inclusive development.

    Emergence After Emergency, with Ryan “Ra” James Kemp

    What if emergence wasn’t a trend, but a remembering? What if complexity is not something to solve, but to compost? In this rich and deeply poetic conversation, we sit with Ryan (Ra) James Kemp, a systems futurist, relational architect, and cultural integration guide who walks between quantum systems, indigenous cosmologies, regenerative design, and embodied remembrance. From the sacred flow of water to the architecture of kinship, Ra reminds us: we’re not here to fix life, we’re here to remember we are life. Together, we explore: - Relational Intelligence vs. Transactional Systems - Emergence through Emergency - Biocultural Heritage and Planetary Remembering - Unlearning, Integration, and the Role of Grief - Post-Growth as a Return to Wholeness, Not a Metric - Why the Future is Found by Deepening into Now This episode is an invitation to melt the ice off our hearts, re-enter the sacred rhythms of the Earth, and shift from sustainability to reverent participation. Whether you’re a systems thinker, an artist, an elder in training, or simply someone navigating the cracks of collapse—this conversation offers a map made of metaphor, memory, and the sacred alchemy of becoming. Stay with us until the end for insights on relational architecture, ancestral continuity, and why peace with Earth matters more than peace on Earth.

    Beyond Binaries - Virginia Vigliar on Attention, Awe, and the Work of Connection

    In a world built on speed, separation, and distraction, what happens when we pause long enough to feel the world again? Writer and researcher Virginia Vigliar explores what it means to live with attention, to move with awe, and to reclaim the quiet power of connection. Known for her sensorial essays and poetic activism, Virginia speaks of “soft deconditioning” as a gentle rebellion against systems that keep us numb. She invites us to notice what’s already here: joy in the cracks, magic in the mundane, and the voice that returns when we finally make space for it. Together, we explore:• Why attention is a form of resistance in an overstimulated world• How awe reawakens our humanity• Storytelling as a tool for deconditioning and collective healing• The importance of building spaces for connection and expression• Moving beyond binaries into rhythm, nuance, and relational depth This is not a conversation about gender, polarity, or ideology — it’s a living inquiry into what emerges when we let go of old categories and begin to listen differently.

    Ida Faldbakken: From Impact to Wisdom | Daring, Lineage & Creative Resilience in an AI Age

    What does it take to lead from courage when the old system makes one last stand?  In this episode, cultural futurist and ecosystem builder Ida Faldbakken joins us to explore daring as a practice, naming what’s hard, finding beauty in the mess, and cultivating creative resilience in a world moving fast. We go deep on: Daring & vocalizationCreativity as grounded forceAncestral memory & ritualFrom “impact” to “wisdom investing”Community beyond hype cyclesAI & cultureSafety & belonging Ida is known for weaving across tech, art, and systemic change—curating gatherings (like Katapult in Oslo), nurturing cross-disciplinary communities, and now convening The Lineage Office, a field for wisdom-led design and “grounded forward” futures.

    Silke von Brockhausen on Healing Systems Through Community, Embodiment, and Listening

    In this deeply resonant episode, we sit with Silke von Brockhausen—a regenerative leader, facilitator, and former UN insider who’s spent two decades navigating crises from Sierra Leone to Afghanistan. Silke shares her journey from institutional peacebuilding into the living waters of regeneration, where healing systems begins with healing ourselves. Together, we explore what it means to lead from presence, to metabolize collective trauma, and to cultivate coherence in a collapsing world. This is a conversation about reclaiming trust, awakening feminine intelligence, and remembering wholeness—not through fixing the old, but by attuning to what wants to be born through us. Together we explore:– how attention and narrative act as forces of creation– trauma-informed systems change and collective healing– planetary consciousness and post-national belonging– embodied leadership and feminine wisdom– cultivating coherence and trust in a collapsing world Voices of Emergence is a podcast about inner transformation and systemic regeneration, hosted by Alex de Carvalho and Rudy de Waele.

  6. Bayo Akomolafe on Cracks, Tricksters, and Dancing Sideways with Collapse

    Bayo Akomolafe on Cracks, Tricksters, and Dancing Sideways with Collapse

    What if the cracks in our world weren’t problems to fix, but portals to step through? In this mythic, poetic, and gently disorienting conversation, Bayo Akomolafe invites us into the liminal, into the spaces between collapse and emergence, between logic and story, between the human and more-than-human. We explore what it means to become otherwise in times of profound unraveling. Bayo shares what it means to be a “recovering psychologist” in the face of modernity’s certainties, and how Yoruba cosmology opened a different kind of knowing, one shaped by entanglement, slowness, and reverence for the unseen. We speak of the Trickster, of AI as a mirror and a myth, and of the strange ways the soul shows up when we stop trying to make sense and start sensing instead. This is not a conversation of easy answers. It’s a dance of metaphors, memories, and micro-ruptures — and somewhere in the dance, a glimpse of sanctuary. 00:00 Opening: Modernity, psychology, and the cracks in our world03:00 What “emergence” awakens: incompleteness and porousness05:00 Yoruba cosmology, Brazil, and ancestral memory09:00 A recovering psychologist: theology, psychology, and coloniality13:00 Collapse, cracks, and radical non-completeness19:00 Spells, narratives, individuation & collective shadow work23:00 Chaos, polarization, and the gifts of confusion27:00 Sideways movements, slavery, and the Trickster31:00 Fragmentation, resistance, and eco-cognitive assemblages37:00 AI as crack, mirror, and Trickster presence45:00 Mythopoetic fields, Tarot, and Narcissus’ reflection50:00 The Emergence Network and sideways politics55:00 Seeds for the future: “Your soul is strange and you haven’t met her yet” Voices of Emergence is a podcast about inner transformation and systemic regeneration, hosted by Alex de Carvalho and Rudy de Waele.

    Designing Gracious AI with Lisanne Buik

    In this episode, we sit down with futurist and visionary Lisanne Buik, founder of the Gracious AI philosophy. Lisanne shares her journey from tech entrepreneurship and burnout to receiving a transformative vision that reshaped her approach to technology.  Together, we explore: What it means to design technology with grace rather than controlHow feminine and masculine energies can balance in leadership and innovationThe role of archetypes from nature—like fungi, water, and pollinators—in shaping our future storiesWhy agency, discipline, and embodied practices matter in our relationship with AIHow storytelling and somatic intelligence can help us navigate between dystopian and regenerative futuresThis conversation invites us to rethink not only how we use AI, but how we embody the values that guide it. Will we build technologies that deplete, or ones that regenerate? The choice is ours—and it begins now. 🎵 Intro & Outro Music Used with permission from AWARË Track: Journey Live 5 Listen on SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/awaremusic/jurney-live-5 Explore more at: https://www.awaremusic.art

  8. Hyperhumanism, Endo-Technologies, and the Future of Consciousness, with Carl Hayden Smith

    10 SEPT.

    Hyperhumanism, Endo-Technologies, and the Future of Consciousness, with Carl Hayden Smith

    What does it truly mean to be human in an age of artificial intelligence, cyberdelics, and immersive technologies?In this electrifying conversation, we’re joined by Carl Hayden Smith—professor, researcher, and mythic technologist—whose work spans extended-state DMT research, journaling as consciousness architecture, and a framework he calls Hyperhumanism: a radical alternative to transhumanism that honors our inner technologies as the real source of transformation. Carl takes us into the heart of Holotechnica, his practice of stacking embodied and symbolic modalities to create lasting shifts in perception and behavior. Along the way, we explore themes like AI psychosis, sigil magic, and umwelt hacking, and how each relates to the design of rituals and protocols that reshape our relationship to time, death, and meaning. From DMT entities and memory palaces to journaling with a Hegelian twist, this episode is a deep dive into how context, awe, and symbolic design can remake our inner worlds—and perhaps our futures. Topics We Explore * Hyperhumanism vs. transhumanism* AI and the mythopoetic field of resonance* Extended-state DMT & the "DMT Island" project* Context engineering and symbolic protocol design* Endo-technologies, altered traits, and embodied practices* Umwelt hacking, sigils, and the edges of perception* Journaling as a map of time and transformation* Death literacy, humility, and cathedral consciousness About Carl Hayden Smith Carl Hayden Smith is Associate Professor of Media at the University of the Arts London, director at Noonautics, founder of the Museum of Consciousness, and co-founder of the Cyberdelics Nexus. He has raised over £10M in research funding, delivered more than 300 talks in 40 countries, and published widely on consciousness, embodiment, and symbolic design.
