Howdy! I am Rev. Dr. BRIAN DAVID PHILLIPS . . . I am an Associate Professor in the English Department at National Chengchi University in Taipei, Taiwan . . . where, in addition to teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in language and literature and theatre, I am an active member of research projects into AI and Virtual Reality and Education . . . some of you may also know me for my original Tarot designs and Tarot scholarship or for my esoteric writings as well as my work in hypnosis as I have performed quite a few comedy hypnosis shows and have taught hypnotherapy, eroticatrance, trancework, and hypnosis all over the planet and I've done quite a bit of work in Interactive Drama or Live Action RolePlay . . . let me be your guide through the world of ecstatic trancework, hypnosis, AI, Artificial Intelligence, the Metaverse, VR, AR, possibly controversial opinions, and so very much more. In this channel, we will mostly be concentrating on the songs I create, including those in which I employ artificial intelligence to varying degrees.
