I'll begin by saying how beautiful the video is and yet daunting. Pills, you're the greatest philosophy/theory content creator of our time! You possess this gift to make highly complex ideas very digestible (and stick with great examples) to all of us; doing so quite aesthetically, with great humour and high degree of self-reflectivity. My gratitude to you to bring thinkers like Merleau-Ponty and Baudrillard into the conversation - both of whom aren't as widely read as they should be in academia. Also for making thinkers like Lacan or even someone like Deleuze, Heidegger, Nietzsche accessible. - Your content is REAL education. Thanks also for being vulnerable (and authentic) to your audience: outside the podcast, I had rarely seen you express your thoughts explicitly in these public videos. Also for making this highly personal, with a glimpse of baby Pills. We do live in a world full of images with no depth, just mere surfaces. We are in an endless split, where all content repeats itself infinitely. Also, the paradox of brands being people and people being brands (or a book about simulacra which itself becomes simulacra) does make one think profoundly; and I believe to make the viewer/reader have thoughts of their own is what I'm sure you are always aiming for. It was really important for you to point out the presupposition we take as a given: doubting the existence of the world ALREADY assumes a profound experience & knowledge of the world. All the work you've put in the past two years has been beautifully enmeshed into this video, as a whole. Thanks for pointing repeatedly that phenomenology IS first philosophy - I think more people should consider this. Something like you say "go, touch grass" or "don't be too spiritual, or you'll miss it." Fuck, that's a ton of thank yous - but thanks for helping out, us, fellow lost birds to find our way back home i.e. where you already ARE.

Great video, as always. I wonder if there are people who are, for all intents and purposes, in a virtual reality because they only know the world through the media, and what the existence of such people means for this theory. Sure, we're not yet permanently strapped into a VR rig, which may not matter anyway per this theory, but I imagine there are people for whom the distinction is negligible. For these people, nearly every minute of every day is spent consuming what is truly a simulation of reality. And, what's more, one that is tailormade for them. Here, I imagine we create people whose virtual reality has transcended fantasy to become actual reality, to the point that time away from the simulation, in that humble world where we spent our childhood, is time spent attempting to live out the simulation: everything is measured against the simulation. When things come up short, it's because their location is backwards, degenerate, it's just a matter of finding the right place where the simulation is manifest. Same goes for the people they may come across. The simulation amounts to some kind of lost future, maybe better to say lost present, because it's right there in their pocket and it feels like home, and reality is coming up short, and will always come up short, otherwise we'd be dealing with something other than fantasy. This is a major area of concern for me. The virtual does and is manifesting itself in the real world. People convinced of the superiority of their simulation will look out at reality, see that their virtual one isn't represented anywhere, and attempt to change that. But what are they manifesting? What is their simulation built upon? Love? Hate? Who's to say. Whatever the case is, the humble world of childhood can and will be changed fundamentally. Can it happen that the humble world could be destroyed, become the desert of the real? And for what? Advertising revenue?

Nice comment. It reminds me of a Baudrillard quote: "When the real is no longer what is was, nostalgia assumes its full meaning" (Sim&Sim, 1981, p. 6). I‘ve often wondered how that quote was supposed to be taken. Does it mean that nostalgia assumes *all the meaning of reality? Like it covers everything that is 'real'?* I mean, everything *is* nostalgic inside the alternative reality of media which is where we all now live (in endless repititions of videos, video games and other simulations). Or does it mean that nostalgia achieves it *full* potential as it is the most viable emotion in postmodernity whatever that is? And does it mean 'reality' is dead? Or does it mean that we pine for reality as it was because it can no longer be? I can‘t help but think too that this war right now is not real. War has not been strictly 'real' since the Gulf War. But what can I do to corroborate my fears? I have no way to know. Roland Barthes wrote a brilliant piece about Jet-Pilots in 'Mythologies' in which he talked about the Jet as being faster than fast to the point it surpassed speed (1957, p. 81). Nothing is sensed by the Pilot but a "coanaesthesis of motionlessness" - an experience of feeling one‘s body frozen by speed. What is that if not a metaphor for the Net-Man too? Speeding through information yet utterly unaware.

We miss what we didn't know we lost, and when we go to look for it again, all we find are the trappings of something long lost. It gets into our minds that perhaps, at least for a moment, we might experience what we once had. But, we can't.

Touching upon the following: "I wonder if there are people who are, for all intents and purposes, in a virtual reality because they only know the world through the media, and what the existence of such people means for this theory" I think this video addresses this, though--at our core, we're bodies operating by largely frictive forces. Could we make virtual the physical process of digestion, of respiration? For as long as we're biologically living creatures which require what we require to physically sustain ourselves, we'll undergo a learning of behaviors and norms which bind us to the physical world around us. This basis is, I think, what Pills is suggesting as a platform of response to the creep of the virtual into reality. Maybe an interesting next step would be to question how thoroughly our physical needs (and emotional, but that seems to require much more typing) which provide the axes for our modes of conduct could be addressed through 'virtual' means. If a grocery store simulates the hunter/gather principle by providing us segmented areas of nutritive sources from which to collect, that doesn't mean I don't digest an apple just the same. Neither does does a media campaign selling me pears replace my actually eating them. Could replacing social spheres vital to physical development with VR headsets (both literally and metaphorically) as you suggest truly lead us to a place where virtual reality subsumes reality entirely--again, however we're defining reality--and thus invert the real/virtual dichotomy/distinction?

It's good to see Diego on a Plastic Pills video

oh HELL yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Found your channel yesterday through your videos on Lacan and you’re already one of my favorite creators. Excited to watch this!

And he’s back !!! Missed their videos so much.

Pills is dropping shit for real. Man is in stride! Glad you took time over the autumn to recharge.

Zeno believed that motion is nothing but an illusion. According to Simplicius, Diogenes the Cynic [Chad] said nothing upon hearing Zeno's arguments, but stood up and walked, in order to demonstrate the falsity of Zeno's conclusions.

This video really gave a structure and language to what I have been thinking for a long time. Especially reading philosophy and especially being culturally taught the notion of the duality between mind and body. However, as you said, it is our bodies that exist and it is our bodies that constitute our categories of existence. Touching grass is a widely known syntagm, however, practicing it is more useful than one believes. Go out, leave your phone at home, live, create something! This alone will elevate you and will give you back something that you actually never lost.

I love the final takeaway. "Be here now" is the reminder I hold on to. This present moment, right here, right now, contains everything that matters. It's flawed and messy, ugly and incomplete, but it's the only home we'll ever have.

I have one, very close friend that I can get into philosophical, existential talks with. At least he's the one that really throws ideas back at me and keeps it engaging enough that I always leave thinking of three more things that could be discussed. During a car ride, with me driving and amidst some kind of conversation he asked something like "how can we really know anything?" And on the fly, off the top of my head the best answer I could give was: "experiencing something is knowing something." Thinking about it more, I think I might've been right or at least, it's a rare occasion where I feel confident in my immediate answer. Experience. All we truly know that we have. Thus the only way that we truly know anything. Things not read about, or read or heard about: but experienced as first handedly as possible. Experience. All that we can know, all that we are. As far as I can tell...as far as I've experienced lol.

Glad to see another video that isn't too 'splainy. I remember, in childhood, having touched grass before I knew what grass was. Seen dust motes in a sunbeam. Smelled old canvas tents. Heard rain hitting a tin roof. As I understand Merleau-Ponty, his work points to a preconceptual experience with thickness. Is it language that thins out the world? It certainly distances us from it.

based as fuck, after watching this I went backpacking in the desert for a month and experienced enough friction to make me connect to the real for a bit. Now I'm back working and staring at a screen alone in my room all day but at least I uhhhhh gained something? Maybe? A fleeting sensation that will soon pass before I once again delve into the loop of reading philosophy and then realizing it's all a bunch of masturbatory interpretations of meaningless signs

pills, have you read the zhuangzi (or chuang tsu, by other romanization systems)? Much of the core ideas there closely closely mirror this video, but the aesthetics of doom gloom and neurotic panic are instead replaced with that of laughter. It's a pretty ingenious approach to the "problem" of the matrix, and it's been around so long that we don't even really know if the accredited author was a real person. I'm pretty sure you'd dig it, but what I'm really curious on is, how does the fact that this is taught in practically every chinese school affect how that society runs? Does it even make a difference?

It's easy to get caught up with the potential metaphysical implications of "The Matrix"; but in my mind, that's not the point of story. The Matrix isn't a virtual reality, that's just a tool, it could just as easily have been dream magic, or some spiritual bs as the vehicle of what the matrix really is. The matrix is a Narrative, spread in order to control people and extract a resource from them, their "electrical power" in the case of the movie. The narrative provided by the machines was that of a life, a society, a history. The technology was used merely as a means to provided believability to the life stories of the inhabitants. There is no being "red pilled", even in the "real world", the people of zion where living according to various narratives, some believed in Neo, others didn't, and these competing narratives caused tension. The narrative of Neo itself was used to as a means of control by the Oracle. There is no escaping the realm of narratives, it's how we understand the world. The question is: What are the origins of your narrative, and which narrative do you choose to believe?

@0quisuismoi0

Well put. Within the story, a lot of people forget the importance of the oracle. She was a tool of the system just as neo was and the matrix as a whole was. Your question really leads you round in circles tho, even with reductionist thinking. This is addressed in the trilogy, altho i don't think they offer a solution. You could, and a lot do, end in a nihilistic gloom with the realisation that no choice is ever made freely.

@@0quisuismoi0 yes, the question of what narrative you choose to believe, and what its origins are may be circular, at least causally. Your starting narrative will influence further choices in narrative you choose to believe. The point though, you can't be "red pilled", you can't "wake up", or be "enlightened". Once you start to question a narrative, what you're doing is constructing competing narratives and assessing which is the most plausible. That's not to say that all are equally valid, just that any choice you make is just the adoption of a new narrative, or the same. In terms of 'The Matrix', once Neo starts to question the reality of his life, he is in search of a new narrative, and Morpheus (and by proxy, the Oracle) provides one, which he accepts, yet continues to question, at least as to whether he is indeed "the one". As far as 'The Matrix' is concerned, the narrative that people are trapped in a virtual reality is, as far as we know, objectively true, but some viewers have questioned whether or not 'the real world' was just another simulation. With respect to the signs and symbols we see in media and advertisements that pills touches on, these, in my mind, are just another means of constructing a narrative, another 'technology' if you will, a visual language. In the end, what we choose to believe is our responsibility (disregarding any debate on 'freewill'), and in my mind, that's empowering, not nihilistic. That being said, we should be cautious, what potential motives might those who provide pieces of a narrative to us carry? That's the reason to question the origins of a narrative, are those behind a narrative like the machines, trying to extract a resource from us? What resource might that be? Taxes? Votes? Purchases? Some form of support in a conflict? Credibility? What you choose to believe will either make you provide those resources willingly, or not, but in the end, we are responsible for our choice.

I think thats how our consious brain and perception itself works. Thats how we exist in this reality, or 'matrixes'. With Neos journey, and pursuit for a new narrative, i think its presented as he releases himself from those narratives through 'self' sacrifice. After learning he is himself a form of control, he initially rejects that narrative by going back to trinity, herself another narrative in that context (altho listening to the wachowkis they use 'matrixes' for their description) After shedding it all, his final conversations with smith, nudged by the oracle again, he 'self' sacrifices. He does what he is, if that makes sense. As in the only way to become 'free' or to be himself (which is what neos journey is. "wake up neo") Is after he gave up everything else and is just left with himself, which is a mechanism to reset the matrix.

More great content. One point to challenge you on again, nostalgia. You often portray it as illusionary, a time that before that appears better in hindsight but is 'false'. However, you essentially summarise (from around 17mins) the importance of nostalgia in relation to identity and your perception of reality. Feeling 'at home' under the mountain of experience. Is that not nostalgia? Nostalgia is like a value and emotional exchange with yourself, through your memories (which are always 'reflections' or images of that reality), an exchange that re-inforces your identity.

If they continue creating new remakes, computer games and whatever entertainment product the new technology provides, VR, better VR, and so on, one day the Matrix itself as a product will become so realistic that one will be able to plug themselves into, as in the first movie... so the Matrix is manifesting itself through time and its rehashes...
