What we’re about
This group is for everyone who likes intellectual discussion and the sharing of ideas and values. It covers a wide range of topics - art, history, philosophy, economics, science, culture, sexuality, beliefs - whatever people in the group are interested in talking about.
Each session starts with one member talking about a topic they are interested in. We then discuss that topic. The group encourages diversity of opinion with a relaxed atmosphere that allows people to express themselves openly without judgment or hostility.
Each session will have suggested books and web articles to read and videos to watch so that we can have a quality, informed discussion.

See all- Post-labor economy: rethinking prosperity when human labor has no valueC/ de València, 209, Barcelona
As AI and robotics rapidly advance, societies must confront a profound shift: what happens when human labor—both physical and mental—no longer sustains a livelihood? Post-labor Economy theory explores this transformation, arguing that as automation makes necessity-driven work obsolete, economies must evolve toward broader forms of property-based income, decentralized power, and new mechanisms of distribution.
This perspective reimagines the social contract and the roles of governments, businesses, consumers, and financial institutions. Central to postlabor economics are decentralization, automation, and innovative systems for sharing income and economic influence. The goal is to envision a future where prosperity and human agency are secured without dependence on wage labor.
This session will be led by Michael Vax.
