"I think at some point you need to provoke people. Science is meant to make people uncomfortable." It is hard to know how our future descendants will regard the little sliver of history that we live in. It is hard to know what events will seem important to them, what the narrative of now will look like to the twenty-fifth century mind. We tend to think of our time as one uniquely shaped by the advance of technology, but more and more I suspect that this will be remembered as an age of cosmo...  show all text

If you enjoy seeing a complicated theory or idea boiled down to its essence, you'll appreciate this new set of posters by London based designer Genis Carreras. In fact, it should come as no surprise that Carreras claims to love "minimalism and Swiss style" especially after seeing this. Here he takes complex philosophical theories, like existentialism and utilitarianism, and whittles them down to basic shapes. Great! Interestingly, Carreras works for Foundry, the company behind that Steve Jobs p...  show all text

Baudrillard is best-known for his recent works on simulation and fatality, but in his earliest works, he advanced a novel Marxist-structuralist critique of consumerism. Andrew Robinson reflects on Baudrillard’s view that consumption is a socially-imposed duty. While his theory of symbolic exchange provides an unusual account of how a non-alienated society might work, Baudrillard’s critique of alienation provides his account of how capitalism today actually functions.  This work has evolved sign...  show all text

Have you ever been asked that question when splitting the check? There are two couples at the table, the waiter has brought separate checks and the credit card holder turns to the other credit card holder and tries to find out how to coordinate the tip. Why? I mean, if they were out just the two of them, would they ask what people at the other table were going to tip? (Probably, hence the need to invent the 15% standard). Why does it matter if one couple tips 14% and the other 18%? Don't undere...  show all text

Bei dem BrettSpiel der Generationen handelt es sich um ein abstraktes Spiel der Philosophie. Es unterliegt keinerlei Regeln im herkömmlichen Sinne und fordert die Spieler auf sich physikalisch-philosophischen Gedankenspielen hinzugeben. Einmal begonnen lässt sich das Spiel nicht mehr beenden, sondern nur noch pausieren. So fördert es das kreative und freie Denken genauso wie eine tiefsinnige Auseinandersetzung mit der Natur der Dinge. Die Spielsteine und der Würfel werden nur im ästhetischen Si...  show all text

Such, at least, is the conclusion drawn by writers at the ‘Economist’ who have just reported on the publication, in ‘Cognition’, of a paper that claims (in its title) that ‘Antisocial Personality Traits Predict Utilitarian Responses to Moral Dilemmas’. Reading the article in the Economist made me recall a report that apparently appeared in the Los Angeles Times a few years ago. In the same it was that reported that when “asked to resolve hypothetical dilemmas — such as tossing a person from a b...  show all text
