In this episode of Rebel Spirit Radio I am joined by Douglas Grunther, creator and host of the Woodstock Roundtable, to discuss his book, The Quantum & the Dream: Visionary Consciousness, AI, and the New Renaissance. Informed by philosophy, depth psychology, and spiritual insight, Douglas delves into profound shifts in human consciousness, the need to transcend the materialist paradigm, and the interconnection between nature and technology. The conversation covers the impact and synchronous nature of Freud's discovery of depth psychology and Planck's discovery of quantum physics in 1900, the evolution of the internet as a new collaborative medium, and the urgent need to transcend current paradigms for a sustainable future. This episode also explores the potential of AI and the World Wide Web to usher in a new renaissance through collaboration and deeper connections to consciousness and nature.

Nick Mather, Ph.D.
Greetings! I'm Dr. Nick Mather, host of Rebel Spirit Radio. I have been studying philosophy and religion for over 25 years. I have a B.A. in Philosophy, an M.A. in Religious Studies, and Ph.D. in Philosophy and Religion. Before starting on this journey, I worked as a writer for a small family-owned newspaper in a little mountain town in the foothills of Pike's Peak. I decided to create Rebel Spirit Radio so I could utilize my background in journalism and breadth of knowledge in the world's wisdom traditions to bring you credible information and engaging conversations with writers, artists, educators, and spiritual leaders to help nurture your rebel spirit.
