Philosophers In Space

Mushrooooooms! Mushroom mushroom! I'm in the mood to bend space and time with my mind, lets do this! We're talking about the first 5 episodes of Discovery and the joy of a fungus based universe. We also discuss this as one approach to panpsychism, and refresh on that view vs. other theories of consciousness.

Since we couldn’t get enough bug love we’ve awakened the master from his hypersleep so that we can go straight to the source! We’ve got Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of the Children of Time series and other amazing scifi on to discuss The Things by Peter Watts, a piece that relates strongly to Children of Memory while giving us a nice chance to distinguish between assimilationist and non-assimilationist approaches to uplifting.

Curled up in a ball shaking and crying muttering to myself "there are no ends, there is always another adventure. There's always more novelty out there." Seriously, what a ride, loved all of this and hope y'all do to. We're wrapping up Children of Ruin and discussing how it's nice to come together, but not too much together.

Everybody get loose and do the excited Paul dance, cause it's OCTO TIME! We got a tiny taste of the tentacles in pt1 but this ep is all about our favorite squishy little escape bois. We discuss their beautiful weirdness and introduce the also truly wonderful Creature from Nod, and explore how these entities push the boundaries of our ability to comprehend forms of distributed cognition radically different from our own. ALSO! We hit our puppy hangout goal! So that will be starting this month! Stay tuned for details. And in the meantime enjoy the most recent NASA, Robot Jox, which was maximally Joxy!

Yesssssss, we're out of the Q and A wormhole and back into the Childrenverse, where the humans are terrible, the world building is amazing, and all the uplifted critters can totally give consent. We are starting our three part adventure through book two of the Children of Time series. PLEASE READ CHILDREN OF TIME FIRST! And ideally go back and listen to our episodes on it, cause Adrian is the master of using every part of the worldbuilding. For this first part we discuss the problem of figuring out what it's like to be a Portid, or an Octo, or anybody really. Sometimes connected to the problem of other minds, I feel like it's really the problem of separate minds. But is it really a feature, or an uplifted bug? ALSO! We are extremely close to our goal of 350 patrons and the beginning of parasocial puppy hangouts!

NO YOU'RE CRYING! We're coping with the emotional abuse that is the second half of Andor and talking about the flip side of the fash coin, your anarchisms and what not. I'm gonna go sit in the dark and think about the monologues from episode 12 and wonder what's a functional version of bricking a fash.   Content: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9253284/   Listener Survey: https://rutgers.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8ih4oa8ZSUaT0Cq   Editing by Luisa Lyons, check out her amazing podcast Filmed Live Musicals: http://www.filmedlivemusicals.com/   Music by Thomas Smith, check out his amazing podcast with Lindsey Osterman: https://seriouspod.com/   Support us at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/0G   Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/0gPhilosophy   Join our Facebook discussion group (make sure to answer the questions to join): https://www.facebook.com/groups/985828008244018/   Email us at: philosophersinspace@gmail.com   If you have time, please write us a review on iTunes.
