Bruce Damer at Palenque Norte 2003

Beyond Belief: The Day the Universe Becomes Conscious

Bruce Damer speaking at Palneque Norte - Burning Man 2003 Terence McKenna once called Bruce Damer “a visionary's visionary,” and Bruce certainly lived up to that reputation in his 2003 Burning Man presentation. Combining subjects as diverse as evolution, psychedelic experiences, and physics, he built a mental construct to rival Olaf Stapleton's classic work Starmaker. Just take a look at some of the topics listed next to the links to the MP3 recordings of Bruce's presentation, and you will see what we mean.

In addition to Bruce's ideas about a conscious universe, we were treated to an interesting rap by his wife, Galen Brandt, as she explained the lure of the Burning Man experience.
