And the the idea of the "digital kiva". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiva Steve Smith worked toward this from the Sfx complex side of the grant as well as other projects. In some seriousness, Ben, it would be an interesting exercise for students to make "Man Cites Consciousness" or equiv in a 48-hour film challenge working out AI production workflows. This could later lead to more realtime group interaction with Artificial Consciousness (AC) in the dome in the spirit of the Kiva. Consciousness, psychedelic research and spirituality are becoming mainstream academic topics (eg https://cswr.hds.harvard.edu/research-programming/transcendence-transformation/spirituality-psychedelics/psychedelics-and-future-religion ) IAIA dome could be one of the world's centers.
