The Enduring Enigma of the Mind: Evening Event Series
Session One: Unraveling the Mind: The Mystery of Consciousness
What is the relationship between mind and brain? Is the mind a by-product of neural activities, or does it connect with fundamental features of reality beyond living forms? How does the mind relate to reflection and conscious thought? It is said that what distinguishes the mind is its capacity to probe these questions. But is it actually equipped to answer them? Philosopher Ned Block, neurophilosopher Patricia Churchland, and philosopher Philip Goff dissect the connections between mind, brain, and consciousness.
In-person event in NYC
