Can you explain the ketamine part to me? When I was a grad student a billion years ago, I made a couple of trips with some Danish friends to visit Manuel DeLanda. Not sure if you’ve heard of him but DeLanda was a self-taught Deleuze scholar who wrote a bunch of weird and interesting books. They
revolved around the idea—which he got from Deleuze—that you could explain all kinds of social phenomena through the lens of structures like soap bubble formation. I never really understood it. But he was clear to us that experiences with ketamine helped unlock his key insights. And if you disagreed
Ha! But is that idea—that everything can be explained with the right mathematical take—the same perspective being advocated for here and also explicitly linked to ketamine epiphanies?
