Slow down time.
Underground Philosophy is where real conversation continues.
Here we listen for signal beneath the noise, repetition, and constriction of modern life. This is a meeting ground to initiate a field of interaction where spirited adults gather to experience depth and vitality.
Guests might be well known or influential. They might be of rare integrity but known to just a few. They might be provocative, or simply sincere in their care for real value.
When you come to Underground Philosophy, you come not for any name in particular but because you recognise the need for a context where we pocket our phones, slow down time, and keep the overton open with courage, respect, and intelligence.

Dreams in the Age of Technology (Voicecraft Live V)
In much of society the contents of dreaming consciousness are sidelined as a strange or comical irrelevance. Yet the dream remains a refuge for the private gnosis of psyche: a domain where rich yet nebulous patterns about the dreamer and the collective psyche compose in mysterious relation. In this accelerating digital age, what role might dreams have to play in the orientation of individual and collective becoming?
