Alex Greys Profound Advice to Aspiring Artists Before Skool 2024-05-25 | Alex Grey is best known for his depictions of the body that provide a multi-dimensional “x-ray” of anatomical, psychic and spiritual forces. For many people his visionary art presents icons of the psychedelic mystical experience. Alex and his wife, Allyson Grey, are the founders of Chapel of Sacred Mirrors. In this video, Alex Grey give's his guidance to aspiring artists. The key takeaways are to create everyday. Carry a physical art journal with you. Make it as easy as possible for yourself to get in the habit of creating. Then seek out other creators that you admire. Find past creations that inspire you. Build a wealth of experience and skills. Don't expect to have immediate success. Many of the most well known artists, like Vincent Van Gogh, took years, decades or even a lifetime to finally be recognized. Don't create for money or fame or external validation. Create to express your inner light, to share your experiences and elevate consciousness. Create for the simple joy of creation. After all, that's what you've been put on this earth to do. Alex uses Ken Wilbert's "Four Quadrants" to further explain to the process of creation - I / We / It / Its. First, creation begins with self exploration - Learning, intention, vision - it's what's in your heart. Second, it's getting the creation out into the studio, bringing the vision into the material world. Third, is about all the systems in the world in which you can deploy your art - the internet, social media, galleries, museums, concerts, cafes, etc. Lastly, the fourth quadrant, is the integration of your art into culture. It's the reaction and discussion of your art, which ultimately affects the entire web of consciousness.Watch the full 2 hour podcast with Allyson and Alex Grey - youtube.com/watch?v=s7VZTCaCqJo&t=3087s

In 1971, in a psychedelic awakening through the guidance of Ram Dass’ book Be Here Now, Allyson heard a voice calling her to express in her art an essentialized world view. Chaos, Order & Secret Writing came to artistically symbolize the three essential characteristics of human perception, a minimal yet all-encompassing artistic statement worthy of immersion for a lifetime. Allyson’s art is a personal and shared meditation on the structure of thought, life and enlightenment.Learn more about Allyson and Alex Grey at cosm.orgAlex Grey's website - alexgrey.comAllyson Grey's website - allysongrey.com/aboutCoSM youtube channel - youtube.com/@CoSMvision0:00 - 4:40 - Appreciation4:40 - 7:00 - Working in a Morgue7:00 - 10:50 - Artistic Collaboration10:50 - 14:50 - Depicting Infinite Consciousness in Art14:50 - 21:10 - Secret Writing21:10 - 27:33 - Couples that create together27:33 - 33:58 - Chapel of Sacred Mirrors33:58 - 39:22 - Reacting to AI Generated Art 39:22 - 43:40 - Opportunities for artists43:40 - 51:10 - Will AI destroy human creativity?51:10 - 1:08:52 - The Creative Spirit - Developing your own unique artistic style1:08:52 - 1:15:08 - How to make money without being a sellout1:15:08 - 1:22:15 - Tattoos of our art1:22:15 - 1:31:44 - Important of Sacred Spaces & Community1:31:44 - 1:46:30 - Polarity1:46:30 - 1:59:48 - Advice to Aspiring Artists
The Replication Crisis in Academic Studies - Gurwinder Before Skool 2024-04-09 | The replication crisis (also called the replicability crisis and the reproducibility crisis) is an ongoing methodological crisis in which the results of many scientific studies are difficult or impossible to reproduce. Because the reproducibility of empirical results is an essential part of the scientific method, such failures undermine the credibility of theories building on them and potentially call into question substantial parts of scientific knowledge.The replication crisis is frequently discussed in relation to psychology and medicine, where considerable efforts have been undertaken to reinvestigate classic results, to determine whether they are reliable, and if they turn out not to be, the reasons for the failure. Data strongly indicate that other natural and social sciences are affected as well.The phrase replication crisis was coined in the early 2010s as part of a growing awareness of the problem. Considerations of causes and remedies have given rise to a new scientific discipline, metascience, which uses methods of empirical research to examine empirical research practice.This clip is from the podcast with Gurwinder.

What Caused the Ice Age Mega Flood? - Bret Weinstein Before Skool 2023-12-21 | The Younger Dryas, which occurred circa 12,900 to 11,700 years BP, was a return to glacial conditions which temporarily reversed the gradual climatic warming after the Last Glacial Maximum, which lasted from circa 27,000 to 20,000 years BP. The Younger Dryas was the last stage of the Pleistocene epoch that spanned from 2,580,000 to 11,700 years BP and it preceded the current, warmer Holocene epoch. The Younger Dryas was the most severe and longest lasting of several interruptions to the warming of the Earth, and it was preceded by the Late Glacial Interstadial (also called the Bølling–Allerød interstadial), an interval of relative warmth that lasted from 14,670 to 12,900 BP.The Channeled Scablands are a relatively barren and soil-free region of interconnected relict and dry flood channels, coulees and cataracts eroded into Palouse loess and the typically flat-lying basalt flows that remain after cataclysmic floods within the southeastern part of Washington state. Geologist J Harlen Bretz defined "scablands" in a series of papers written in the 1920s as lowlands diversified by a multiplicity of irregular channels and rock basins eroded into basalt. Flood waters eroded the loess cover, creating large anastomizing channels that exposed bare basalt and creating butte-and-basin topography. The buttes range in height from 30 to 100 m (98 to 328 ft), while the rock basins range from 10 m (33 ft) in width up to the 11 km (7 mi) long and 30 m deep Rock Lake. Bretz further stated, "The channels run uphill and downhill, they unite and they divide, they head on the back-slopes and cut through the summit; they could not be more erratically and impossibly designed."I hope you enjoyed this clip.

Evidence of Energy Control in Egyptian Temple of Hathor? - Randall Carlson Before Skool 2023-11-30 | Dendera Temple Complex - Built beginning ca. 1995 BCE is quite large, boasting a basilica, two birth houses, a sacred lake, and numerous other temples and shrines within its walls. Structures at the site hail from an assortment of different ancient Egyptian eras, with monuments from the Middle Kingdom, the Ptolemaic Era, and the period of Roman provincial rule.There is evidence that the first building on the site went up around 2250 BCE, but the standing structures mostly date from the Ptolemaic era forward. In 1995 BCE, construction likely began on the Mentuhotep II monument, the oldest existing structure when the site was rediscovered. The Mentuhotep monument has since been moved to Cairo. The oldest structure currently there is from Nectanebo II, built ca. 345 BCE. All that said, it may be more accurate to say the structure as we know it began in 54 BCE, when construction began on the Temple of Hathor, the most prominent structure at the Dendera complex.The Temple of Hathor is one of the most well-preserved antiquity sites in Egypt today, and is an excellent example of traditional Pharaonic architecture. The Temple of Hathor was built primarily during the Ptolemaic Dynasty, which was a period of Greek rule in Egypt. However, construction of the temple was completed under the Roman emperor Trajan, who is seen depicted on the walls of the complex making offerings to Hathor. The temple complex also includes a monumental gateway, constructed by Trajan as well as Domitian, another Roman emperor.

The Education System Destroys Curiosity - Carl Sagan Before Skool 2023-10-23 | Carl Edward Sagan ( November 9, 1934 – December 20, 1996) was an American astronomer, planetary scientist, cosmologist, astrophysicist, astrobiologist, science communicator, author, and professor. His best known scientific contribution is his research on the possibility of extraterrestrial life, including experimental demonstration of the production of amino acids from basic chemicals by radiation. He assembled the first physical messages sent into space, the Pioneer plaque and the Voyager Golden Record, which were universal messages that could potentially be understood by any extraterrestrial intelligence that might find them. He argued in favor of the hypothesis, which has since been accepted, that the high surface temperatures of Venus are the result of the greenhouse effect.Initially an assistant professor at Harvard, Sagan later moved to Cornell, where he spent most of his career. He published more than 600 scientific papers and articles and was author, co-author or editor of more than 20 books. He wrote many popular science books, such as The Dragons of Eden, Broca's Brain, Pale Blue Dot and The Demon-Haunted World. He also co-wrote and narrated the award-winning 1980 television series Cosmos: A Personal Voyage, which became the most widely watched series in the history of American public television: Cosmos has been seen by at least 500 million people in 60 countries. A book, also called Cosmos, was published to accompany the series. Sagan also wrote a science-fiction novel, published in 1985, called Contact, which became the basis for a 1997 film of the same name. His papers, comprising 595,000 items, are archived in the Library of Congress. Sagan was a popular public advocate of skeptical scientific inquiry and the scientific method; he pioneered the field of exobiology and promoted the search for extra-terrestrial intelligent life (SETI). He spent most of his career as a professor of astronomy at Cornell University, where he directed the Laboratory for Planetary Studies. Sagan and his works received numerous awards and honors, including the NASA Distinguished Public Service Medal, the National Academy of Sciences Public Welfare Medal, the Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction (for his book The Dragons of Eden), and (for Cosmos: A Personal Voyage), two Emmy Awards, the Peabody Award, and the Hugo Award. He married three times and had five children. After developing myelodysplasia, Sagan died of pneumonia at the age of 62 on December 20, 1996.For more fun animations, please subscribe.

Randall Carlson Debunks Atlantis Location at Richat Structure Before Skool 2023-10-16 | The Richat Structure, also called Eye of the Sahara or Eye of Africa, is a prominent circular geological feature in the Sahara's Adrar Plateau, near Ouadane, west–central Mauritania, Northwest Africa. In the local dialect, rīšāt means feathers and it also is known locally in Arabic as tagense. Tagense refers to the circular opening of the leather pouch used to draw water from local wells.It is an eroded geological dome, 40 kilometres (25 mi) in diameter, exposing sedimentary rock in layers that appear as concentric rings. Igneous rock is exposed inside and there are spectacular rhyolites and gabbros which have undergone hydrothermal alteration, and a central megabreccia. The structure is also the location of exceptional accumulations of Acheulean archaeological artifacts. It was selected as one of the first 100 geological heritage sites identified by the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS) to be of the highest scientific value.To learn more about Randall Carlson visit randallcarlson.comThis clip is from the Before Skool Podcast # 8Please subscribe for more insightful videos
