Open Frame [Cosmos Café 2021-10-07]

The recording is now available above.


@ccafe : At the end of this Café we decided to round out the year with:

21st October: Federico Faggin’s essay from Consciousness Unbound entitled “Consciousness Comes First”

and, beginning 4th November we will begin a deep reading of Susanne Langer’s “Philosophy in a New Key” with the intent of using the remaining sessions for the year (more information to come as to how we will divide up the reading for Langer’s work). Both Faggin’s essay and Langer’s book are available here.

Our complete 2021 fourth quarter Café list looks something like this:
