I'll be giving a public lecture entitled "Surprises and Sweet Spots" on Friday night, February 8th, at St. John's College in Annapolis, Maryland if you're pining for something to do and are in the neighborhood. The lecture starts at 8pm and is followed by an extended "conversation period" for those that want to hang around.
-Dylan
will it be recorded?
Ooo, if you’d given more notice..
Hey, btw, I went back to a couple of older episodes and just a few hours ago was listening to your remarks on midi-chlorians. Right on. I would ask you in person your thoughts on JJ Abrams, the last Star Trek movie and Abrams being chosen to direct the next Star Wars.
Good luck on your lecture Dylan! Or rather, as its the 9th now, I hope it went well! But I’ve been thinking a lot about science in this world (and I’m very non-science) and thinking about Hawking’s statement that “Philosophy is dead.” I don’t think you agree but I was wondering what your thoughts were about his position.
Also, there is a great value to the poetic input as it allows for profound indefiniteness whereas philosophy require profound definiteness.
