Voices of Emergence

Alex de Carvalho, Rudy De Waele

Voices of Emergence is a podcast about what’s coming alive in a time between worlds. Hosted by Alex and Rudy, we hold mythic, soulful conversations with visionaries, culture-makers, and edge-walkers who are sensing into the future. From regenerative leadership to inner transformation, we explore how personal and collective emergence shape a more beautiful world—one honest, embodied conversation at a time.

    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.

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

    10 DE SET.

    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.
