YHouse continues its program of lectures, events, and conversations on exciting and provocative topics at a number of venues around New York City.
YHouse invites you to the Consciousness Club, a study group to promote broadly transdisciplinary discussions on the neural and computational bases of consciousness, and how these concepts can be applied to other fields of interest. Our weekly meetings are for you if you are into awareness, science, technology, philosophy, art, and design.
For more information and meeting schedule, check out our Facebook page, or tune in to our Twitter updates.
Although the meetings are open to all, we encourage technical and scientific discussions for this series of meetings.
YHouse continues to organize informal Lunch Salon events hosted by the Program in Interdisciplinary Studies at the Institute for Advanced Study, 1 Einstein Drive, Princeton, N.J., West Building Seminar Room, 2nd floor. The format is an informal chat, followed by longer open-ended discussions among the participants, on the topic of consciousness and cognition. This event is by invitation only. To request an invitation, please email us at info@yhousenyc.org
It is proposed that we should seek to fill the universe with happy consciousness. But first, we must prevent civilization-ending global catastrophe. We discuss with Seth Baum, Director of the Global Catastrophic Risk Institute and affiliated researcher at the Center for Research on Environmental Decisions at Columbia University.
