2015 Maps of Meaning Lecture 03a: Narrative, Neuropsychology & Mythology I (Part 1)
It can be argued that the brain has two modes of operation: one for explored territory, and the other for unexplored territory. It is representations of those twin territories that makes up a major part of the foundation for narrative and mythology.

God. He delivers so much that my brain overheats. Rewatching again and again. And the video is barely 29k views. Yet his appearance on discussions of "political"/"sensitive" issues is 1 mil views. Guys, you are missing the right stuff.

Indeed!
The tips he gave in the beginning were a hidden gem I wasn't expecting but I'm glad to have to learned. J.P. is so generous with his knowledge and I'm grateful. The man himself is a gem.
He is a phenomenal speaker and highly intelligent with the concepts he expresses -- I thoroughly enjoy listening & (re-)learning psychology from him!!

^^^Side note: I received my Bachelor's degree in Psychology and my Master's degree in Forensic Psychology alittle over 20 years ago, but I abandoned my 'dream job' to start a family (no regrets though!! My children are awesome & a blessing!!); and these class lectures are very refreshing and make me want to return to the psychology field.
This is unspeakably enlightening. The dancing, cultural differences, my efforts to write a book on philosophy, how I deal with people,... My whole world is affected.

@@omerfarukgungorf I mean he thinks mindfulness is a fad and has never tried sitting meditation, has never been in Samadhi. He does some kundalini yoga tho. Mindfulness as a buzzword may be a fad but meditation is far more powerful than his vague notions about meditating. That's all I'm saying---he is spiritual but in a limited way.
Very very very thankful to you professor , for your eye opening lectures ,your lectures enlightened my proses of understanding how it actually works in humankind (mind)..,what a relief.. :)

I think it would be an interesting challenge to revise this lecture for the visually impaired (got the idea because as mentioned below, one can't see the slides- thought I bet they're online somewhere from former students etc. I looked up the "basketball experiment" in a separate window) - I found that the various narrative "walkthroughs" (e.g. the laptop example ~36min) were immediately " imaginable" but - oh btw this not a PC hassle it's about the disposition of language in the mind (the brain? the pinky?)- trying to imagine the slides (like the schematics drawing from cybernetic theory) was an interesting challenge (I don't have any eye problems but a relative recently suffered some, so maybe that's on my mind...) Either way, this whole series is truly impressive.

Mom I was converted because the cops told me to do that and I had nothing to lose.

Well: that seems to me a contradiction: if evolution goes from simpler to complex, and entropy goes from complex to simpler forms, then how evolution can be possible without external intervention? The biopoiesis (generation of living complex structures from simpler inert elements) is something still unexplained in science, and contradicts entropy principle.
@steviereads4267
5 жыл бұрын
Hello there! I think the external intervention you are looking for is the sun. Entropy, as I understand it, is a principle of thermodynamics which states that reactions within a closed system tend towards a disorganised state since disorganisation/"simplicity" is energetically and statistically favourable. If you view earth as the closed system then it does not makes sense for it to getting more complex. Luckily for us the sun is providing the majority of the energy needed to "counteract" entropy. But, as earth "loses" entropy, the sun itself is gaining much, much more. So the system of sun + earth has increasing entropy as a whole.

Damn you lost some weight throughout the years, nice!
He got the definition of entropy wrong @17:25, simple things decay into more complex forms due to entropy - complex things DO NOT decay into simpler forms as stated in the video - that would be tremendous if that were true! People wouldn't have to do a thing and everything would be orderly!
@angelkalathas

Complex doesn't necessarily mean orderly. Take a Pollock painting, for instance. It's the best artistic depiction of entropy I know. Entropy is moving towards disorder and a helicopter that works to a helicopter that plummets to the ground is enough entropy if you ask me.

Every time i start to read a book or listen to a lecture i always know what is being said.
Some thoughts: You are not the sum of your parts, you are the thing that sums up the parts. There is no line between you and the world, there is only the world... which is you. The word "usually" is not a problem, but the solution to problems. You don't have to know everything to know something. To understand that 2+2=4 doesn't mean you have to know all of mathematics. You can't really use incomplete knowledge as as good a argument for pragmatism. There is no real AI. When I start my computer and it says "welcome" does it mean it? No. Does it understand it? No. How do we know that we have free choice? Maybe our choice is really determined on some biological, psychological level and it only appears free? Freedom is slavery, in some Orwellian understanding of the body.

I may return to challenge some of your other points, but on the concept of "Real AI".. if you haven't seen the learning that computerized neural networks are doing, or what Watson is capable of... I understand, if you have then I don't know how you don't see that very soon if not already in a lab somewhere there is a computer equivalent of the intelligence of lower animals and is only a matter time before we match and surpass our own.

I don't think consciousness will ever be artificially produced. It's a spiritual commodity. You sound like a religious person for having "faith" that science can in fact produce material miracles. There is a limit to the materialism of science. Even something like numbers can't be explained materially. We don't see 2 and 3 walking down the street arm in arm and yet we use numbers in our everyday calculations. They are not of this material world...
@dementare

You sound like a religious person for assuming it's of a "Spiritual" origin and not a Natural one. Consciousness is *not* in the same realm as "numbers". And speaking of numbers, computers do not see 2s and 3s, or the much more complex and irrational numbers, walking down the street and they use them all the time with a greater understanding of their accuracy than we do.
Looking back on it after all the years, these were always my favorite lectures. The more he got involved with the politically correct stuff - the less I started following his material.
