The New Renaissance: Art, AI & Altered Consciousness with Theodore Bajard
Aug 02, 2023
Nick Sarafa & Elijah Johnston

Theodore Bajard, the visionary behind RIMA, joins Nick to traverse the dimensions of consciousness and AI, art, spirituality and authenticity.

We’re stepping into a New Renaissance – a narrative which we are collectively writing as it unfolds. Nick and Theodore explore what the new paradigm might look like, and what role AI can play in this story.

Turning the lens inward, the pair look at the ‘cracks’ in our consciousness – the vulnerable gaps through which we can let the light shine. Theodore speaks to the importance and beauty of authenticity in storytelling, relating, and in becoming truly present.

With RIMA, Theodore dissolves the perceived boundaries between otherness, spirituality, performance and reality. Tune in to explore expansive perspectives on altered states of consciousness, tapping into your truth, and for a portal into the psychedelic realm of RIMA.

00:05:21 Between the conscious and the unconscious

00:19:19 How to become an agent of change
00:28:21 Can our tech be embedded with humanity?
00:34:28 Bringing the spirit realm to life with AI
00:49:24 Digital creators on a spiritual path
