What we’re about
In the tradition of the Parisian Salon, this group focuses on collaborative, intellectual discussions on a variety of diverse topics. The goal of these discussions is to come away with new perspectives on the topic at hand, fostered by the input from all in attendance.
We host hybrid gatherings once a month in-person in Boulder, CO and over Zoom.
No prior philosophy knowledge is required. This isn't a true philosophy group that talks about Plato all the time but rather we endeavor to apply a philosophical style of conversation and inquiry to all topics.
Is this group a good fit for you?
- You love using your imagination to speculate, and think deeply about ideas.
- You love novel ideas and find yourself going down a Wikipedia/Youtube rabbit hole or reading different books.
- You are analytical, articulate, and logical.
- You enjoy brainstorm like conversations that are not debates.
- You are okay with working your ideas out on the fly.
- You enjoy challenging your own previous conceptions.
Our values:
- Being kind to people.
- Science is real.
- Tolerance (though intolerance will not be tolerated.)
- Fun and humor.
- Learning and growth are more important than looking smart.
- Open-mindedness.
This is to avoid having incompatible personalities show up. We want to make sure you have fun, so please make sure you agree with most of the above.
