Creative Friends Podcast # 83 - Damon Soule (Psychedelic Artist)

Get ready for a playful and curiously philosophical ride with Chris and his artist friend Damon Soule!
The two discuss living off grid, chickens, creative inspirations, the human process, making an effecting upon others, toroidal fields, energetics, natural law, divineness, universal origins, religion constructs, Damon’s role in The Furtherrr Collective and what it means to be a creative.
About the Artist:
Soule’s work is highly complex and imaginative in both practice and concept. Fueled by his inherent investigative and obsessive curiosity, he employs an array of scientific and artistic systems to create his paintings including polarity, abstraction, alchemy, geometry, quantum physics, surrealism, molecular biology, meta physics, ancient symbolism, cosmology, Buddhism, sci-fi fantasy, cyber- infrastructures, the global, digital subatomic and infinitely vast multiverses we may find ourselves in at any given moment.

This is now one of my favorite episodes. Full of deep thinking, laughs, and personal realizations. I love it.

[@ChrisDyer79]

Niceness! One of my favourite ones too! 🙌💚

[@flowerbabe9835]

This was such an interesting conversation!!! I love the eagerness to learn, I feel the same way. The older I get, the more I want to learn. I really dig that sketchbook! Such a creative thing to put together! Thanks for another great episode! Damon Soule you've got some rad art and some interesting thoughts! Much love! ✌️

[@ChrisDyer79]

Thanks for making time to enjoy this Tiki! Happy you liked Damon, his art and what he had to share!! 🙌

[@polychromicportal]

I am currently 2 hours 15 minutes into the interview. WOW. Damon speaks my language but definitely more articulate than I can ever put it. Thank You Chris and Paulina for a BRILLIANT interview. Thank You Damon for your creations, your art and your philosophy. I agree with SO much Damon has to say.

[@ChrisDyer79]

Niceness, he's my kind of guy too! Happy to share his vibe with you!!

[@sebscreations]

Sick! I remember stumbling along this guys patch n doodle videos years ago and being confused about the fact that they were not much more popular. Dude is so interesting and has such a beautiful, finely honed creative flow. Excited to listen to this

[@ChrisDyer79]

Nice! Yeah, I loved his show too and was even part of one of them. I love this conversation and hope you do too! Please pass it along if so!

[@RandomInternetUser999]

Wow what an incredible episode! Watched it in chunks and that last hour was exactly what I needed to hear. I completely agree about the potentials of the festival community to promote honesty, truth, love, unity. I've been working security at smaller festivals and it's our intention to foster a safe environment for everyone to dive deep into the experience. My security brothers are some of the greatest people I've ever met. Honored to work along side them, and party with them on our days off.

[@ChrisDyer79]

Awesome, thanks for watching and for the service that you do!! 🙌💚

There were parts of this conversation that blew my min, eapecially when touching on science. So much to digest, here, so many topics to chew on. Damon Soule's take on all nooks and crannies of this interview and share of his experiences were a very interesting listen!

[@ChrisDyer79]

Niceness! Happy you enjoyed this talk as well Coleen! Damon has so much to share deff need a repeat sometime!

[@NoMe-Arts]

Great talk with a true living legend. Love the long-format interview style... there is so much to uncover and discover, especially with someone who's been making and showing art for 30+ years... Great series!

[@ChrisDyer79]

Awesome, thanks for your reflections and for watching the series!

[@andreafuenzalida9766]

Thanks to both of you. Really loved the conversation and hearing what Damon had to say about all these subjects. Shout out to you and much love from the poopy crazy Tenderloin!

[@ChrisDyer79]

Hell yeah Drea! You still holding it down in SF!

[@andreafuenzalida9766]

@@ChrisDyer79 Thanks Chris! What Damon said is truth. Sometimes i think I must be so stubborn and crazy to stay here 😂 For sure it’s such a difficult place for artists, the depressing ghetto conditions can be dealt with better if prices of rent and owning a business were low. I do see first hand how art helps heal the depressed state of mind. while doing art outside i witness people’s expression changes from super bummed to a lot happier when they see us artists making art. Those are priceless moments of hope.

[@threyda]

Damon is the man! Great one Chris!

[@ChrisDyer79]

Big thanks Peter! Gotta get you on here eventually 🙌

Love you Damon and Chris!

Would love to share a beer with Damon!

[@mh8048]

What can we do to make people realize we are one while we are so different... I think its not a matter of opinion, that we is one, but it still kinda is... hmmmm...

[@ChrisDyer79]

@@mh8048 thanks for watching! Yeah, Damon is a potent character with great knowledge! Hope you enjoy other episodes too!

[@mh8048]

@@ChrisDyer79 Thank you! I´ve been listening your podcasts lately and I enjoy the talk .

[@Alaska_Queen]

27 minutes in. A little rebel and I agree! Kick down the door Chris! That's what's one of our mutual friend says that if there is no path you are here to create your own. Let's get it!

[@ChrisDyer79]

Hell yeah! 🙌💚

[@jonathanlewis9296]

This is one of my favorite episodes however I completely disagree with the theory that everything is imbalance and especially referencing the polarized states of magnetism. Also, my vision and ideology comes from an open architectural essence having vanquished all conditioning in thought and philosophy from a variety of practices. Balance would just be to state that in an ever expanding and contracting ever evolving ever moving creation that there is an essence that all is derived from and universal laws such as electromagnetism, magnetism, gravity, photon, etc have a cohesive field that in essence is holding the resonance of the highest potentials of endless boundless life to exude in an ever changing way that folds into all that is and that balance would then be an all encompassing field that maintains cohesion to the degree of at least having a centered space or dimension that is common which all is counterbalanced from a symmetry. Imbalance would inherently lead to extremes being normalized and that's not what occurs billions of years occurred even here on this planet and yes there was many events that were extreme yet the natural gravitation was still to refine those states into a relative flow which is maintained from balancing forces in all that is

[@f12_pusher]

Righteous dudes!

[@lotuslight2023]

Old skool …lovely vibes & authenticity! I appreciate living in harmony & off grid living & there’s a soulful soliloquy vibe! Thanks for sharing your expressions & journey! “Nature is a balance of competitive & cooperation”, lots to reflect upon 🌬️🍄🫂🪄TY~>CDCF☝️💛☝️❤️

[@ChrisDyer79]

Hell yeah! Thanks for watching and reflecting!

[@fungifocus]

You have definitely planted some very large seeds! You spread more like mycelium ❤🎉

[@ChrisDyer79]

Awesome!!

[@phreshadelic]

niceness!

[@curtiswhitwam1]

Dude at around 28:00 or so when he’s talking about impact and the art scene and galleries and all that. Yes!!!! So much yes!!! We artists are here to impact people eye to eye. We aren’t here for some pretentious money making bullshit. Right fucking on.

[@ChrisDyer79]

Hell yeah!! 🙌

[@hyperportal8899]

building the Galaktic Museum sounds fun!

[@whakanson]

Why do you have guys on who are "Taking a break."?

[@ChrisDyer79]

Damon is an artist May he be making art or not. His interesting life and thoughts are part of it too.
