Knowledge in the Cloud (Forum for European Philosophy public discussion)

12 October 2015, 6:30 pm8:00 pm

Forum for European Philosophy public discussion

As technology and the mind become more integrated, questions arise about how to locate the limits of our mental life. Some philosophers have proposed that mental life extends far beyond the traditional soul or biological brain, and that the same must be true of our epistemic life as well. Our panel will debate this claim and ask how it should affect our conception of human nature.

Adam Carter is Research Fellow, Edinburgh University.

Katalin Farkas is Professor of Philosophy, Central European University.

Chair: Peter Dennis is a LSE Fellow in the Department of Philosophy, Logic and Scientific Method and a Forum for European Philosophy Fellow.
