- The Spirit Molecule
< Projects (All) Website > The Spirit Molecule This instant cult classic documentary unravels the convergence of science and spirituality through Dr. Rick Strassman’s research and follow up book DMT: The Spirit Molecule. After over 40 years of dormancy, a new psychedelic revolution has emerged. At the nexus of this next-generation mystical revival, lies a molecule naturally produced abundantly throughout the plant and animal kingdoms, including humans. Regarded as the world's most potent psychoactive compound by scientists and psychedelic explorers alike, Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) seems to be shifting the consciousness paradigm. In the early 1990s, Dr. Rick Strassman conducted the first government-sanctioned, human psychedelic research with DMT. Strassman's research serves as the narrative backbone for The Spirit Molecule. The film presents an intriguing discourse on the science of the soul, and will undoubtedly open Pandora's box. By challenging current misconceptions about this class of compounds, the documentary unravels fascinating parallels in neurology, quantum physics and human spirituality. In stylized scenes reminiscent of Rod Sterling's Twilight Zone bookends, Joe Rogan, alongside a collection of accomplished minds and several of Strassman's own psychonauts, shepherds the audience through the great unknowns of the DMT experience... revealing the molecule's ubiquitous nature, its role in culture, evolution and life itself. Could Dimethyltryptamine, a simple molecule with a complex name, hold the key to understanding reality, consciousness and our relationship to both? Many who have experienced DMT profess this, and much more. Participants Gallery Videos < Previous Next >

- The Way of the Psychonaut
< Projects (All) Website > The Way of the Psychonaut The Way of the Psychonaut explores the life and work of Stanislav Grof, Czech-born psychiatrist and psychedelic psychotherapy pioneer. The Way of the Psychonaut explores the life and work of Stanislav Grof, Czech-born psychiatrist and psychedelic psychotherapy pioneer. Stan’s quest for knowledge and insights into the healing power of non-ordinary states of consciousness, influenced the discipline of psychology and profoundly changed many individual lives. One of those transformed by Stan is filmmaker Susan Hess Logeais. The documentary utilizes Susan’s personal existential crisis as a gateway to Grof’s impact, from the micro to the macro. Susan and Stan begin with a series of interviews that reveal his journey from material scientist to a spiritually aware explorer of the deep psyche. Interviews combined with re-enactments of Stan’s most remarkable therapeutic sessions bring to life the development of his theories. Additionally, a multi-layered visual story provides a framework of meaning to Susan’s personal exploration of Stan’s techniques and discoveries. The result is a powerful glimpse of what is possible for all of us. Through his experiences, Stan gained a profound trust in the wisdom of the higher self, and discovered the lasting impact of unconscious memories from the birth process to influence a person’s life. In the process, Stan unlocked a way for renegotiating these experiences and liberating people from their traumas. Participants Gallery Videos < Previous Next >
- Nevie Owens | Uniphi Studio
< Team Nevie Owens Producer (Post) / Editor In the beginning, I honed my skills by making bad movies shorter; now, 18 years later, I have had the pleasure of working with acclaimed directors and on projects I am proud to show my grandparents. Whether it’s a music video, short, or feature I approach the project with enthusiasm and with the right amount of creative vision and anal retentiveness…every frame counts! I got my first taste of the industry with a STARZ internship my final year at the University of Denver, where I was a communication/philosophy major. Upon graduation and focusing on film, I landed an assistant editor position on Before Sunset under Sandra Adair. My first feature as lead editor was Kat Candler’s directorial debut, Jumping Off Bridges. Some other key credits include: Mitch Schultz’s ground breaking documentary, DMT: The Spirit Molecule, Matt Muir and Chris Ohlson’s, Thank You A Lot, and the genre bending feature, The Teller and the Truth. I came full circle editing the much anticipated Louis Black/Karen Bernstein documentary Richard Linklater: dream is destiny. My most recent film, I'm Gonna Make You Love Me just premiered at DocNYC and is playing as a "festival favorite" at SXSW 2020. My favorite movie is Delicatessen; I am uncannily good at cribbage, and had perfect attendance in high school.
- From Shock to Awe

From Shock to Awe asks, ‘how do we heal our deepest wounds?’ An intimate and raw look at the transformational journey of two combat veterans suffering from severe trauma as they abandon pharmaceuticals to seek relief through the mind-expanding world of psychedelics. Recent scientific research coupled with a psychedelic renaissance reveals that these substances can be used to heal PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) for individuals and their families. Beyond the personal stories, From Shock to Awe also raises fundamental questions about war, the pharmaceutical industry, and the US legal system. The documentary centers on veterans, Matt Kahl and Mike Cooley, and their challenging post-war lives, lives shattered by the trauma of war. The vets personally struggle with anxiety, fear, depression, anger, and an overall inability to find an equilibrium in society and with their families. In order to deal with their erratic emotions and haunted state-of-mind, doctors prescribe intense pharmaceuticals with various side effects that bring them face-to-face with death. In response to the negative impact of traditional Western medicine, both vets begin to use cannabis as an alternative. Although beneficial on many levels, our heroes yearn for deeper healing. Mike and Matt decide to take ayahuasca, an Amazonian brew traditionally used for healing and spiritual insights. These warriors attend a weekend ceremony filled with hope…and fear of the unknown. Rattles shake, bells ring, flutes play, and a campfire crackles…a ceremony is underway. As images of battle consume their minds, the vets reverently drink the bitter brew several times over a weekend, bringing about profound revelations for our weary soldiers. Upon returning to home, they quickly learn that their families are not prepared for the rapid change. Aimee, Matt’s wife, is overwhelmed by his exuberance and feels threatened that he might leave her. Brooke, Mike’s wife, sees the healing but finds her own demons rising to the surface. Mike feels the ‘reset’, and describes the experience like a roller coaster and the challenges associated with integrating the life-changing ceremonies. Unexpected twists and turns, and a desire to understand their husbands’ journeys, Aimee and Brooke embark on their own psychedelic healing journey with ayahuasca and MDMA respectively.

- Future Sense
< Projects (All) Website > Future Sense The 8-episode docuseries about the evolution of human consciousness. The past, present and the future converge with complexity and change. Join us on this epic Human journey. Future Sense is an epic journey of the collective human experience in all its forms. FS unravels human consciousness and sketches a map to our spectacular future. How do we make sense of the shifting tides of reality and recognize the complex patterns to understand our place in the universe? Our strategy arises from a deep, research-based understanding of emergent human values. For the first time ever humanity has global visibility of our impending evolutionary tipping point, which provides the opportunity to influence our transition. The current rising wave of global change is driven by an evolutionary response to the problems created by modern society. It is manifesting new perspectives, values and motivations. ‘What drives our behaviors? Why are human values so diverse? How can we work together at a global level to meet the enormous challenges we face? Will we survive as a species? Through the lens of human consciousness, [FS] intimately explores paradox seeking answers to these questions and many more. As William Gibson said, ‘the future is already here, it’s just not evenly distributed yet.’ EPISODES EP 1: THE MESSAGE Once upon a time in our near future, a coded message from the stars communicated with every human regardless of culture, geography or language. Humanity’s evolutionary story, an alien yet familiar tale, resonated with all earthly citizens to embrace change. EP 2: CHANGE DYNAMIC Explore the pattern of change, from the Universe to its many complex systems to the shifting paradigms of human consciousness. The ubiquitous experience of transformational change, or what Joseph Campbell coined ‘The Hero’s Journey’ is the core human story of change. EP 3: HUMAN EVOLUTION Since the emergence of homo sapiens, or ‘modern humans’, our species has evolved through four revolutions of consciousness, or paradigms, and is in the midst of fifth. Clare Graves’ research uncovered eight stages of development and their interconnected dynamics provide a roadmap to the future. EP 4: END OF AN ERA The decreasing effectiveness of our pre-Internet social systems, including politics and economics, is plainly visible. We witnessed the rise of the scientific-military-industrial complex, given birth to amazing technology, and also caused a lot of damage while creating some very complex problems. Despite its appearance, the collapse of the old systems is only making room for the new ones. EP 5: THE POSTMODERN WORLD Evolutionary tension: warfare, pollution and deforestation, loss of biodiversity and mass extinction, climate change, refugees, pandemics, technology trickle down, and more brings about the Postmodern human. Emerging social themes include re-localization of industry, rebuilding community, and reconnecting with nature prepares our foundations for the big leap in consciousness. EP 6: QUANTUM CONSCIOUSNESS Human nature prepares for a momentous leap: ‘...the most difficult, but at the same time the most exciting transition the human race has faced to date. It is not merely a transition to a new level of existence but the start of a new “movement” in the symphony of human history.’ The big leap brings us to a transrational state of being like a fish jumping out of a fishbowl to look back. EP 7: TECHNOLOGIES OF TRANSFORMATION (tools/methods to accelerate our dev, personal to global As transformative technologies continue to emerge, the reality we experience as individuals changes faster than our social systems can react. In this episode, we explore the tools and methods that accelerate our development both personally and globally: EP 8: FUTURE HUMANS So, who are we becoming? Understanding the human narrative. Experience the wholeness of existence through mind and spirit. The world is a single, dynamic organism with its own collective mind. Self is both distinct and a blended part of a larger compassionate whole. Everything connects to everything else. Energy and information permeate the Earth’s total environment. Holistic, intuitive thinking and cooperative actions are to be expected. Participants Gallery Videos < Previous Next >

From The Spirit Molecule to a conscious molecule, Bit...to It: An evolutionary docuXP, we explore consciousness as fundamental and ubiquitous in the Universe. The intersection of new research, the endogenous nature of DMT, and the DMT experience provides intriguing insights into the enigma of consciousness. Could this mystifying molecule hold the key to understanding consciousness and the very nature of reality? Human consciousness is one of the grand mysteries of our time. Self-awareness should be at the forefront of scientific inquiry, science still lacks conclusive answers to these questions. Crisscrossing cosmology, biology, quantum science, artificial intelligence, philosophy, and more, Bit...to It breaks down the layers of intellectual discourse to better understand the dimensions of consciousness.

< Projects (All) Website > ESPD 55 In 1967, a landmark symposium entitled Ethnopharmacologic Search for Psychoactive Drugs was held in San Francisco, California. In 1967, a landmark symposium entitled Ethnopharmacologic Search for Psychoactive Drugs was held in San Francisco, California. It was the first international, interdisciplinary group of specialists – from ethnobotanists to neuroscientists – who gathered in one place to share their findings on the use of psychoactive plants in indigenous societies. Follow-up meetings were intended to be held every ten years, but the War on Drugs intervened. The findings of the convention were printed in a book entitled with the same name as the gathering. On the 50th anniversary during the month of June 2017 an international group of specialists gathered again to share their perspectives on past, present, and future research in ethnopharmacology. The symposium was held at the spectacular Tyringham Hall in Britain. ESPD50 was organized by a team led by Dennis McKenna, Founder of Symbio Life Sciences, PBC. Synergetic Press published a collector's box set including the first edition of 1967 plus a brand new book with the 50th anniversary symposium's findings.
