And what question would you most like to ask them? - Tamara ( 6:24 ) Will you ever do an autobiography? - X ( 9:03 ) What is the relation between Alchemy and Christianity, I know Jung wrote some pieces on it? - Tim Susss ( 10:16 ) How the hell do you do it? Is this your full time job? How do you read and dive into so many heads and worlds and then share it in this rich and atmospheric podcast? - Vika ( 11:48 ) What’s something you learned about a creator that caught you off guard and made you laugh? - Nolo ( 13:54 ) In episode 39: Carl Jung and Alchemy Part 1, 15 minutes and 17 seconds in, I would love to know the name of that beautiful piece of music. - Daniel ( 16:41 ) Do you think AI could ever independently tap into individual, animal or human collective consciousness? How will we know what art (say something done by hand like a painting or sculpture) is authentically from that artist anymore? Will imagination become an unused skill through laziness? - Sue Ryan ( 22:05 ) I have started a YouTube channel but I get discouraged very quickly. How do I stop getting discouraged? - Priyanka ( 34:27 ) What are your thoughts on the subject of channelling? - Diana Grigorieva ( 37:22 ) Sylvia Browne clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yzz8vaZgE8 I’d love to know about your writing process, I enjoy your work. Where do you start? - Thomas Widner & Vida013 ( 42:50 ) Do you think the Collective experience of archetypes (to articulate beliefs and ideas) has contributed to the rise of fantasy / collaborative storytelling games and entertainment in the recent years? - Nathan Grabosch ( 45:20 ) I have been reading Jacques Sadoul's “Alchemy and Gold”, and it states that alchemists wrote their discoveries in metaphors, since true knowledge has to remain occult. Why do you think this is? - Romina ( 47:10 ) How do you reconcile the tension between the desire to create something absolutely original with the idea that creativity seems to be the revealing of a truth? Is there anything new under the sun and should we strive for that if there is? - J Kent ( 48:39 ) Do you consider that genius is someone fixated in the stage of the albedo? This stage is the closest point between the ego and the collective unconscious. It’s a fascinating yet perilous stage (psychosis). - Trudy ( 52:45 ) How does Jung remember all these dreams and poignant symbolism so clearly? How could we follow his genius processes of the internal if our dream memories are not nearly as clear, if even present? - Mulnah ( 54:26 ) I’m curious what your feelings are about drugs and creativity? Are drugs a crutch, a useful tool, or something else? - Ben Thurnhoffer ( 56:00 ) I’m curious about how symbolism works in alchemy as well as in Jung’s work, the origin of symbols and such. - Chris DeHaven ( 59:25 ) Do you think that knowledge that Jung left behind was for the creatives and perhaps neurotypicals of today to be re-discovered to heal from modern madness and unlock potential? - Talos_draws ( 01:00:46 ) What is the relationship between art and value? What is the value of art? To elicit an experience? To convey a message? To transform the subjective into the objective? - Al Spaulding ( 01:02:34 ) How has this podcast changed your life? - Clinton King ( 01:05:30 ) Creative Cod
