Resumo

Experiências inspiradoras e rituais estéticos podem induzir profundas transformações epistémicas, ao mesmo tempo que se cruzam com as estruturas de poder. Esta revisão examina diversos estudos de caso – desde rituais xamânicos amazónicos a artes em templos do antigo Egito, experiências surrealistas de sonhos, psicologia transpessoal e cibercultura de ficção científica – para compreender como as experiências planeadas de admiração e imersão podem transformar ou definir conhecimento e agência. Entre estes domínios, vemos um fio condutor: a "política da consciência" – a forma como os estados alterados e os sistemas simbólicos afectam as visões do mundo individuais e colectivas – entrelaça-se tanto com o mito espiritual, a realpolitik (o exercício do poder) como com os imaginários sociotécnicos. Destacamos exemplos de como as ecologias de arte-rituais sagrados e as técnicas mediáticas modernas servem como arquiteturas de transformação, aludimos às distinções entre experiências liminoides individuais, comunitárias e corporativas e, em seguida, exploramos como a admiração mediada pela tecnologia pode tanto elevar como minar a liberdade humana. O objectivo é elucidar como os rituais de admiração – incluindo os media imersivos emergentes – funcionam tanto como ferramentas de mudança epistémica como espaços de contestação política sobre o espírito humano.
