This group is for people with some background in philosophy who want to explore new ideas about human existence that focus on the concepts of consciousness and value as key to resolving the enigma of life. Yet everyone is welcome, interested inquirers, avid readers, outliers, undergraduates and professors of philosophy alike.

THIS WEEK: These workshops have focused on the two common phenomena of consciousness and value, which have nevertheless been neglected in academic circles, thereby overlooking their significance in accounts of human existence. We have employed various methods of explicating consciousness such as first person experiences, theories of mind, phenomenological structures and classification of the four mental states of cognition, affect, will and value. But we must now ask whether this classification is both adequate and exhaustively comprehensive? Reading: The Pursuit of Value, Introduction.
