About this conversation

Is the Third Attractor about stepping out of binaries?

In this conversation, Adrian Wagner argues that many of our problems come from living out the wrong ontologies: deep assumptions about what is real that we embody without noticing. He introduces assemblage thinking as a different way of seeing how things hold together.

Rather than searching for one big story, Adrian suggests collecting many micro narratives and reading them as patterns. He uses the waggle dance of honeybees as an image for how a collective can find its way, and draws on research into collective trauma. We also talk about communities, shared values, and the need for discernment about AI.

A conversation that questions the stories we live inside and how we might begin to live a different one.
