Shifting Perspectives and Representing The Truth @ Comprehensivist Weds


Details
This event will explore various ways of representing the Truth that have been pursued through history by examining Tricia Wang's exquisite 52 minute video presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gw3SddWa9DQ
The event will examine Wang's dramatic conclusions and their importance for living our lives and understanding the value of modern technologies like virtual reality and artificial intelligence.
After watching the Tricia Wang video, my essay "Shifting Perspectives and Representing The Truth" provides more guidance for the ideas we will explore together at the event: https://www.cjfearnley.com/CfC/2021/08/shifting-perspectives-and-representing-the-truth/
Welcome to the series "Comprehensivist Wednesdays". Transdisciplinarity, Renaissance humanism, homo universalis, and Polymathy are some of the ways of describing this approach which Buckminster Fuller called Comprehensivity and described as “macro-comprehensive and micro-incisive”.
