What we’re about
A laid-back group focussed on good conversation with minimal structure. We'll take a thought experiment as a conversational jumping off point and see how ideas flow from there.
We'll meet in nice pubs in Berlin. Everyone welcome! The more perspectives, the richer the conversation.
Thought Experiments in Pubs Berlin is inspired by Thought Experiments in Pubs London, which originated in 2023 as a social experiment to get people together to connect at a deeper level. The copy on this page and original idea is derived from Thought Experiments in Pubs London.

Welcome to Thought Experiments in Pubs - Berlin edition, where you get to have deep conversations with people you've never met.

The idea:
A chance to meet and talk at a 'deeper' level, and skip the 'small talk'.How will it work?
We will have a set of 'Thought Experiments', short, philosophical scenarios and questions, which will be discussed in groups. The conversation will flow freely, there are no strict rules, simply share and discuss your perspectives on the given topic. The thought experiments will be posted here ahead of the event.Who should come?
Everyone! We believe that the more perspectives, the richer the conversation. This group is not about being experts in philosophy, it is about doing philosophy. That is, bringing our various life experiences and lenses on the world to group discussions about the human experience, the nature of reality...etc.Do I need to bring anything?
No! Just an open, inquisitive mind.We will do 3 rounds of discussions. After the event, I would love to hear your feedback on the session.
The thought experiments we will discuss are around the theme of Beauty. Prompts will be posted here on the day of the event.
See you soon!
