Philosophie 2.0 - spielerisch klug durch maximale Klarheit
Mit dem Titel "Philosophie 2.0" wird nicht zu viel versprochen.
Nicht alles was mit 'Philosophie' bezeichnet wird, hat damit auch zu tun.
Das gilt allgemein.
Wörter werden zu oft nicht prĂ€zise gebraucht, aber wenn man alles mit beliebigen Wörtern bezeichnen wĂŒrde, könnte man nichts mehr genau verstehen, könnte nichts mehr genau begreifen. Also blieben die IrrtĂŒmer bestehen. Das hĂ€tte mit Philosophie aber definitiv nichts mehr zu tun.
Was also ist das Gegenteil belanglos-vieldeutigen Wörterverdehens mit hochassoziativen SprĂŒngen bei denen allerlei ĂŒbersehen wird und ergo das Wesentliche nicht mehr als solches klar erkannt werden kann?
Maximal exakte BegriffsklÀrung.
Und das geht!
Das geht ĂŒber einen systematischen Aufbau aller Kategorien - gestĂŒtzt ĂŒber einen Algorithmus, welcher Kategorienfehler automatisch vermeidet und mithilft, das Ganze im Blick zu behalten.
Dass dies fĂŒr uns Personen gar nicht so einfach ist, sieht man daran, dass jede Person (auch Du) irgendwann irgendwelchen IrrtĂŒmern aufgesessen ist.
Jede Person, die sich also fĂŒr irgendetwas ernsthaft (nicht wegen blanglosem AmĂŒsement, oder wegen ideologischer Rechthaberei) interessiert und ergo dafĂŒr offen ist seine Auffassungen weiterzuentwickeln, ist bei dieser Veranstaltung goldrichtig.
Ablauf:
Bei unserer Diskussion geht es dabei nicht um irgendein festes Thema, sondern jeder schreibt ein Wort in seinem Interessengebiet auf einen Zettel und wir ziehen diese paarweise fĂŒr je eine Runde.
Die beiden Wörter haben gemeinsame Kategorien, aber es gibt auch Unterschiede.
Wer diese nicht alle kennt, kann nicht behaupten, dass er tatsĂ€chlich begriffen hat, wovon er meint, dass es ihn interessiere; dass er definitiv wĂŒsste wovon er spricht.
Dieses Problem hatte schon Sokrates erkannt. Nur haben wir jetzt einen Algorithmus, welcher zu absoluter Genauigkeit verhilft um diese IrrtĂŒmer loszuwerden. Daher 'Philosophie 2.0'.
Siehe dem Bild oben werfen wir die Bedeutung (die Menge aller Kategorien einer Begrifflichkeit) per Beamer an die Wand.
Wir sind nicht in der Schule, d.h. es gibt keinen Zeitdruck, keine Noten, keinen Wettbewerb und keine Profilierungsmotive, sondern jeder hat alle Zeit der Welt um ĂŒber die schematisch dargestellte Bedeutung nachzudenken - und diese zu hinterfragen.
Die grafisch dargestellten Bedeutungen des Algorithmus sind nicht perfekt.
Es geht nicht darum irgendetwas zu akzeptieren, sondern andersherum: die Bedeutung anzugreifen und zu verbessern.
Jeder kann sie Àndern!
Die Diskussion ist also eröffnet. Jeder muss GrĂŒnde angeben.
"Kann ein Walfisch ein Wellensittich sein?"
\~> NatĂŒrlich nicht, denn SĂ€ugetiere sind keine Vögel.
"Kann ein Fenster ein GetrÀnk sein?"
\~> Jeder weis, das ist unmöglich, denn Festkörper sind keine FlĂŒssigkeiten.
"Kann eine Demokratie eine Republik sein?"
"Kann eine Vermutung eine Meinung sein?"
"Ist etwas zu begreifen das Selbe wie etwas zu verstehen?"
Nichts regt dermaĂen zum nachdenken an wie die Bedeutung der Begrifflichkeiten algorithmisch stabilisiert zu systematisieren.
Und wenn wir uns nicht einig werden?
Die Diskussion lĂ€uft auch nach der Veranstaltung weiter. Jeder kann online von zuhause die Diskussion fortfĂŒhren - mit dem selben mitdenkenden Algorithmus.
Man könnte sagen, es sei ein neues Gesellschaftsspiel - ohne Wettkampf, sondern in kollektiver Bereicherung an Klarheit, von der alle gigantisch profitieren, obschon jeder nur einen sehr kleinen Teil beitrÀgt.
Das "Spiel" funktioniert auch mehrsprachig, denn der platonische Raum der Begrifflichkeiten ist der eindeutige Raum, auf den das Vokabular einer Sprache nur referiert.
Man kann auch von Zuhause aus online mitmachen. Den Zugang können wir dann ĂŒber die Kommentare hier organisieren.
Bring deinen Laptop mit, dann wird es einfacher...
Dieses Spiel macht klug:
Schach trainiert zwar das Konzentrationsvermögen, hat aber mit der Wirklichkeit nichts zu tun.
Dieses Spiel hingegen schon, denn genau mitdenken zu können setzt voraus genau zu unterscheiden.
Wer die Bedeutung der Wörter sauber ausdifferenziert wird immer klĂŒger.
Mach mit!
Sprachklub fĂŒr Russischlernende Nr. 111
Der Sprachklub bietet einen Raum, um Russisch in entspannter und freundlicher AtmosphĂ€re zu sprechen. Die Treffen ermöglichen nicht nur, vorhandene Kenntnisse zu festigen, sondern auch den Wortschatz durch lebendige GesprĂ€che und spannende Themen zu erweitern. Hier hat jeder die Möglichkeit, neue interessante Menschen kennenzulernen, eigene Erfahrungen zu teilen, und mehr ĂŒber die russische Kultur zu erfahren.
Das Treffen des Sprachklubs ist dem Welttag des Theaters gewidmet, der am 27. MĂ€rz begangen wird. Das Theater dient dabei als inspirierender Rahmen fĂŒr GesprĂ€che und bietet zugleich eine hervorragende Gelegenheit, den russischen Wortschatz rund um Kultur, Kunst und BĂŒhne zu erweitern. Im Verlauf des Abends geht es um unterschiedliche Aspekte der Theaterwelt: persönliche Vorlieben bei Genres, EindrĂŒcke von Inszenierungen und die Wirkung schauspielerischer Leistungen. Zudem eröffnet sich Raum fĂŒr kreativen Ausdruck und spielerische Sprachpraxis. Am Ende werden die Teilnehmer den Konzertsaal des Russischen Hauses besuchen, um ein authentisches GefĂŒhl fĂŒr die AtmosphĂ€re theatraler Darbietungen zu bekommen.
Beer 'n Mic: English stand-up at the Scottish pub!

Thank you again for the last session.
Next Wednesday, 25.03, we remain with "Thomas the Obscure". This time we move into romance.
Anne appears. Anne dies. She says he is insignificant.

STARRY HOUR; Zeiss-GroĂplanetarium
TRAVEL WELL:
People with superior communication abilities travel better. Fact. We make our own luck by communicating the best we can. Maybe Iâm part idiot, but I believe in the innate decency of people, that people will be respectful, and that if someone does not update their RSVP and fails to attend it could be that they have had a serious accident and are in hospital. I suspect however, that many people are simply very inconsiderate, inconsiderate of the effort and time that go into organising gatherings. Communication begins the morning of the gathering, several hours before the gathering, and the method of communication is the democratic and securest messenger: Signal Messenger, which is also owned by a non-profit foundation, not by a billionaire.
ENGLISH:
Fantastic Berliners,
on Thursday 26th of March we are visiting the Zeiss Major Planetarium for the Starry Hour at 6:30pm.
https://www.planetarium.berlin/veranstaltungen/sternstunde
You need to buy a ticket...
https://planetarium-berlin.ticketfritz.de/Event/Detail?Event=11322
This Starry Hour is in German, as far as Iâm aware. From experience I know that we need quite good German language skills to understand a Starry Hour.
We are meeting from 5:30pm at the Zeiss Major Planetarium, Prenzlauer Allee 80, near S Prenzlauer Allee, where there is seating and possibly also a Café or Bar.
Please read the comments to get the information about seating places.
We can communicate through both the Signal Group and the Meetup Chat. Youâll find the link for the Signal Group in the comments.
The question, âDoes the Starry Hour have something to do with poetry? It doesnât say anything about poetry...â was put to me. Well yes, poets often reference the stars, as far as Iâm aware, which is a direction into astronomy, or even a gentle encouragement that we should keep our heads up and maintain our wellbeing. For example, the poet Philip Larkin in the poem âThe North Shipâ, in the first poem, tells with hwyl, âUnder an fire-spilling star,â. For Poetry & Puls there is the context of the starry sky above us, as when we have no knowledge of astronomy we canât read the poetry. Since we are interested in reading poetry, Starry Hours are good. Knowledge of the stars is also good for people on the move, and we like to often be on the move.
To the Starry Hour, the conversation, and the comradery!!
DEUTSCH:
GroĂartige Berlinerinnen und Berliner,
am Donnerstag 26. MĂ€rz besuchen wir Zeiss-GroĂplanetarium fĂŒr die Sternstunde um 18:30.
https://www.planetarium.berlin/veranstaltungen/sternstunde
Man braucht eine Eintrittskarte...
https://planetarium-berlin.ticketfritz.de/Event/Detail?Event=11322
Diese Sternstunde ist auf Deutsch, soweit ich weiĂ. Von Erlebnis weiĂ ich, dass man ziemlich gutes Deutsch haben muss, um eine Sternstunde zu verstehen.
Wir begrĂŒĂen uns ab 17:30 Uhr bei Zeiss GroĂ Planetarium, Prenzlauer Allee 80, in der NĂ€he von S Prenzlauer Allee, wo es SitzplĂ€tze und eventuell CafĂ© oder Lokal gibt..
Bitte liest den Kommentar um Infos ĂŒber SitzplĂ€tze zu bekommen.
Wir können beides ĂŒber die Signalgruppe und Meetup Chat kommunizieren. Ihr findet den Link zur Signalgruppe im Kommentar.
Mir wurde die Frage gestellt âHat die Sternstunde etwas mit Poetry zu tun? Da steht nichts von Poetry...â Naja, Dichter nehmen oft Bezug auf die Sterne, glaube ich. Das ist eine Weisung in die Astronomie, halt einen Vorschlag, dass man den Kopf hochhalten und aufrechterhalten solle. Zum Beispiel, der Dichter Philip Larkin im Gedicht âThe North Shipâ, im ersten Gedicht, erzĂ€hlt âUnder a fire-spilling star,â. FĂŒr Poetry gibt es die Umgebung von den Sternen, und wenn man keine Kenntnis von dieser Umgebung hat, kann man die Gedichte nicht ganz gut lesen. Denn wir uns fĂŒr das Lesen von Gedichten interessieren, sind Sternstunden gut. Kenntnis von den Sternen sind auch gut wenn man unterwegs ist, und wir möchten oft unterwegs sein.
Auf die Sternstunde, das GesprÀch, und die Gesellschaft freuen wir uns!!

**Mandarin Learner Meetup in Berlin! *(Free resources below)***
**Learning Mandarin is like trying to tame a** đČ**.**
It can feel frustrating, but youâre not alone. **[WeHanzi](wehanzi.com)** is here to support!
**[WeHanzi](wehanzi.com)** is an independently built iOS app created by Ben and Gina.
We've turned the entire learning experience into ***Comprehensible Input* through both simplified and traditional manga** with support for **Zhuyin**, **Pinyin**, **flashcards**, **audio**, **direct translation**, an integrated dictionary.
We also specifically design region-specific language to reflect real-life usage in both **mainland Chinese Mandarin** and **Taiwanese Mandarin**, allowing you to naturally compare and explore the differences between the two, so you donât end up saying something that makes perfect sense in Beijing, but gets you funny looks in Taipei đ.
Now, together with our good friend Matthias from **[Gemeinsam Chinesisch & Deutsch lernen](https://www.meetup.com/gemeinsam-mandarin-chinesisch-und-deutsch-lernen/events/308204343/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events),** weâre inviting you to our very first **in-person Mandarin Learner Meetup in Berlin** together!
All levels are welcome, from beginners to advanced learners. Just come hang out, share your stories, laugh at our tone mistakes! As a community, we can learn from each other and turn Mandarin into a piece of cake! đ°
**Come and join us!**

Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!
Let's try a Friday Night Fish Fry!
We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM.
It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!
