Our experience is an adventuring of the mind into the ordered geometry of space-time.

“Jason Luis Silva (born February 6, 1982) is a Venezuelan American television personality, filmmaker, and public speaker. His goal is to use technology to excite people about philosophy and science. (...)

Inspired by Charles Baudelaire's Hashish House, Silva's obsession with filmmaking and documentation started as a teenager when he hosted "salons" at his house to discuss ideas.

Video, rather than pen, became his preferred way to memorialize what he calls "ecstatic moments". For Silva, it is not enough to "feel" the experience. These moments need to be "narrated in real time." (...)

Silva is a self-described wonder junkie and performance philosopher, a term he first heard on a website called Space Collective by Rene Dallier. He uses television, online media and lecture halls to share his perspectives.

For example, in the video The Mirroring Mind, Silva "explores human consciousness and the creation of that consciousness through self-reference."” (Wikipedia)

There is a sadness to the ecstasy. Beautiful things sometimes can make us a little sad, and it is because what they hint at is the exception, a vision of something more, a vision of a hidden door, a rabbit hole to fall through but a temporary one and I think that ultimately that is kind of a tragedy. That is why love simultaneously fills us with melancholy. So that’s why sometimes I feel nostalgic over something I haven’t lost yet, because I see its transience.
