Now, what I want to do in--certainly this first part of the seminar--is to call in question, very fundamentally, all of our basic ideas about what is sickness, what is health, what is sanity, what is insanity. Because I think we have to begin from this position of humility; that we really don't know. It's reported that shortly before he died,...

Marie’s meditation ended with a bang, she slowly and carefully extracted herself from her cyber-autopoietic self-dissolution, realizing that an observer somehow disturbed her alignment with the infoflow. That observer, of course, was I. I did not mean to interrupt but it appeared that my newly updated SentSap ™ fluid intelligence...

When we think of minds we think of intentions. Intentions that lie behind acts, acts that unfold at the recourse of agents: agents with minds. In short, when we look out at the world we see objects that are acted upon and entities that do the acting. This clear cut distinction between the 'done upon' and the 'doer' appears stable, but it hides one...

I sat in the window seat of a jumbo jet as Chicago, Illinois accepted darkness. As we lifted off, I noticed the lights lining the runway. We began to rise. Lights were speckled across vast amounts of concrete. We rose higher; we moved east. A sparkling multitude of green, red, blue, white, yellow, covered the airport ground. We rose higher,...

We have an urge to build. Nature is treated as a side-order, becoming an attraction and a marketing tool. At one point we came from nature, now we package and sell what is left of it in holiday safari trips. Why do we disregard nature as a habitat for humans and immediately build? Why should nature be reduced to symbolism, poetics and abstraction...
