Welcome to Unending Process - the evolutionary thinking tank....podcast.
This is a continuation of the Permanent Evolution and Sympathetic People podcasts.

In part 1, we talk about some of the problems with university education, including the importance of being challenged and mentoring.
In part 2, we talk about the origins of evolutionary thinking in the ancient world, and then take a random walk across the philosophical landscape, touching on the mind, Buddhism, ethics and a bunch of other stuff....

Panpsychism, unanswerable questions, ethics of audience and understanding others (Episode 6 part 2)
Episode 6 of the Permanent Evolution Podcast, the consciousness episode. Consciousness has been a constant theme of the podcast, but in this episode Dr Coludar and Dr Jackson indulge in a debate (that almost becomes heated) loaded with jargon. Topics discussed in part 1 include the "hard problem" of consciousness and whether it is a scientific question, the metaphysics of mind, reductionism, and explanations versus descriptions. In part two, panpsychism, unanswerable questions, the "ethics of audience" and whether or not it's worth trying to understand others, are all on the table.
