Presentation and Dialogue on Consciousness and the Future by Tom Lombardo, Ph.D.

** Please note that the date has changed. It is now the following Tuesday! (My teaching schedule got switched around so I now only have Tuesday evenings free).

About the Presenter:

Tom Lombardo, Ph.D., Director of the Center for Future Consciousness, and author of several books and numerous articles on consciousness, wisdom, psychological evolution, and the study of the future will discuss with the group his two new books. Drawing upon his recent articles “The Ecological Cosmology of Consciousness” and “Educating the Wise Cyborg” (published in one of his two new books Wisdom, Consciousness, and the Future) his talk will highlight his ideas on the nature of consciousness and its interdependency with the physical ecology of the cosmos, the connection between mind and technology, and how time and evolution figure into the further development of human consciousness.” In this context, he will also be discussing Antonio Damasio’s new book on consciousness Self Comes to Mind: Constructing the Conscious Brain. He might also discuss some new topics in science fiction as well.”
