Tue, Feb 9, 2010 Right on. We do need a new theory of mind, and not just that - We need one that can allow us to produce results which take us out of our current darwinian-oriented model, I think. Augmented consciousness, or maybe even eventually entirely altered consciousness to an unrecognizable yet superior state is what I got in mind! You one of those people that sees it happening within our lifetime towards beautiful results? It's also a battle against letting the attitude that it's all wishful thinking destroy potential paths in reality you'll never know were better cause you never tried em - There's a lot of examples in history of this if you look around. Experimentation with EVERYTHING is what science is all about, and if we haven't tried it, we don't know shit about it.
