Why 2026 Feels Strange | Terence McKenna & the Acceleration of Weirdness

Drawing on McKenna’s language of novelty, I connect ancient cycles of globalization, myth, and power to the present moment we now call 2026. From political egregores and symbolic overload to information acceleration and collective unease, this clip explores why the feeling that something is off is neither new nor accidental.

Things are going to continue to get stranger, rather than panic or prophecy, this is about orientation. How individuals stay awake inside large systems. How myth helps us move through periods of rapid change without losing our footing.

This clip is taken from the full livestream:
