I would love to hear and see that too. I could follow conversations between such people for hours, without any need to participate. I feel like there is great potential there for a whole host of enlightening conversations and profound duels of the mind. That said, I did not find this specific lunch table conversation to be particularly interesting, as it was quite superficial and platitude-laden. I suspect they were indulging him for the camera more than them truly wanting to engage deeply with him and as such, I think the commentator was more of an inhibitor than a catalyst in this conversation. This is almost always the case when a stranger first joins a group though, especially on camera, so it's not surprising and doesn't reflect on him in any way. That said, you can just feel the raw, untapped cerebral energy buzzing and crackling across the table between the residents of the institute. I would love to be a fly on the wall there, to hear and see the conversations when these people are fully at ease and let their minds run wild and free. It can be breathtakingly, mesmerizingly interesting hearing and seeing truly gifted people have a conversational deep-dive

They have a podcast. It's called Complexity.

Brings me some sort of peace to know that there’s individuals out there going to battle with the questions of life/the universe everyday. And that there’s a safe space where science and humanities can come together to think/create/grow. I hope we see more of these kinds of spaces available to the general public in the future. There’s likely a huge population of people who are seeking the opportunity and space to explore and create things we don’t necessarily understand. But due to the constraints of individual circumstances, they will never have the opportunity or outlet to exercise their creative capacity. At the core of humanity, creativity seems to be our strongest asset. Once individuals have the freedom to fully realize the depths and wonders of their own mind - I think we will be amazed at the reality we can create together.

After years of isolation and quitting my career shortly after starting and starting my own business to just pay the bills while I would spend my days trying to soak up information and ponder new ways of thinking about things. My family and friends could never get past that money wasn’t a driving force for me. Iv spent so much time figuring out ways to use the comments or post by others to spark an idea but I had to accept that no real conversation could take place and most just wanted to be right. I practiced and got to where I look for ways I’m wrong and since I can never be right about anything it just opens up new perspectives. Im not smart like the people here but knowing there’s other like minded people out there is comforting. When he said how most people don’t want to pursue question’s without a answer and how thats what they do there I felt understood for the first time in years, those kinds things are really the only thing that interest me and when I noticed everyone else got uncomfortable when I’d ask about an unknown and what they thought. I finally just stopped and accepted I would have to get used to interacting only with myself in any real way. Now that I know there are communities out there I will someday find one.

Santa Fe is a capital of rich assholes who retired to begin “artist” while visiting you’ll find some interesting characters with some eventful careers but they’re hardly original , hardly anything but pompous and proud. Apparently they’re geniuses though ha . These people don’t do anything but waste space making large convoluted projects out of boredom and passing it off as creativity . It’s fun though , I’d imagine at least

@@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist.inherently your message instills segregation. What good is a religious system if it provocates bias towards followers of the same faith? If humanity is to come together, it is with respect and accordance to common rights. It’s not a coincidence that every single society created a religion - we wanted purpose and needed accountability to be better because we are animals - it’s our mindless dissension from nature that has driven us to live unnatural lives and hold unnatural morals. Religion has done nothing than provide solace to those within the same faith and ostracize those of another, it’s laughable how backwards the role it was supposed to play has become through globalization. Now we have legal systems to hold us accountable so religion is not such an important facet. Believe whatever you want though - anything to placate the mind from the hell we’ve made Earth into

I had wanted to be part of this institute for decades, but a deep personal tragedy radically altered my course, just when it was within reach. I'm content with accepting that I'm now a 'lost polymath'. Life goes on. I wish those of you who are able to be present in this amazing place all my best.

Same here. My academic career just didn’t work out, and that’s okay. I still ended up in Santa Fe for unrelated reasons (which is excellent for me - I love the city for reasons other than the Institute), and being away from research gives me more time to focus on my creative writing.

I actually liked where they discussed all the poets and writers and scientists that are just at home studying and writing but not part of the greater community. How many geniuses have toiled away in fields to survive as opposed to furthering humanity's advancement? And thoughts of the misallocation of human resources. But also just the appreciation that even though you're not at uni discussing and partaking you're not just a drone. Even the simplest of us is deeper than we'd probably expect.

All those poems and private works of art, if not really shared, still serve as a self reflection - to see oneself, and perhaps, define ourselves in a more expressive sense which will help teach us how to show others who we are and what we think. And this in turn shapes all of us and the place we live in.

It's nice to see this way of learning is being revived. These kinds of monastery were present in ancient Bharat temples, chaityas. Upanishads are the culmination of all worldly and other worldly knowledge known as Vedanta the end of Vedas. Similar themed monasteries like Nalanda, Vikramshila were major repositories of the world

Mccarthy had such an astonishing imagination. Doing Blood Meridian audio book at the moment and his ability to tell a complex, thought provoking story, to create immersive atmosphere and build believable, memorable characters is truly staggering. Genuinely like no other!

Thanks for sharing your experience here. Amazing.

Complex Systems Theory is one of my favorite topics. This video is awesome. It's so cool seeing people with a similar passion. For anyone who is curious, you don't need to be a genius to understand this stuff. There are some decent books out there that cover the ABCs of complex systems theory in an easy to digest way. Thinking in Systems by Donella H. Meadows is pretty good and the audiobook is on Audible is great for listening to while exercising. It's not such a heavy lift you have to sit down and think about hard about it. The cool thing about complex systems is it opens ones consciousness up to perspectives larger than one self -- how we fit into the world, and how to make clear sense of difficult problems. It imo is a topic I wish politicians were familiar with, because it would aid in finding verifiable solutions to difficult problems, instead of squabbling about proposed solutions.

Excellent video. Wasn’t sure I was hearing what I was hearing lol. PhDs in maths talking about love. Of course anyone can talk about love. Just these people seem genuinely happy in content and context.

Great video! love this longer content

M^3- “This led to this Tripartite creative workflow, which is, if you want to be really original and challenge convention, you’d better be on your own; it’s a solitary pursuit. That’s the mountain you’re going to the mountain, but at a certain point, you’ve drunk a little bit too much of your own kool-aid, and you need a community that is congenial and understands you to give you honest feedback; that’s the monastery. Your benedictines, your cistercians, your friends; you’re the same order, same values, but you’re still competitive. That’s where you take the idea next, to really cultivate it in community. And then, when you’re pretty certain that it’s robust and correct, you take it to the metropolis, (where everyone is out to kill you), and trade it with the world.” This precisely aligns with the story of my life, leading up to the present; I happen to be one of those rare polymaths who ran away from home at 15 and circled the globe multiple times, somehow managing to slip between just about every societal crack imaginable (whilst amassing a lifetime worth of ‘top shelf’ Craic, along with multimodal autodidactic meanderings ranging from the most abstract of the arts to the equally abstract of quantum mechanics/m-theory) So, I’m now at a stage in my life, wherein I’ve sampled the full-spectrum of my own Kool-Aid and despite it being a broad and diverse set of unique flavors, it simply isn’t the Community that my soul is seeking. So, my question is the following: How can we meet and have a conversation? It goes without saying that I enjoyed this video, however, I’ll extend my deepest gratitude regardless.

8:12 *Quality of mind* 17:20

In the deep stillness of your soul's embrace, Unveil the universe within, a sacred space. For love, the highest form of wisdom's flight, Transcends all bounds, ignites our inner light. Consciousness, a canvas vast and wide, Where life's brushstrokes dance in joyful stride, Creating a masterpiece, our existence's grace, A journey within, a timeless, boundless place. True evolution's song, a melody so fine, Resides not in changing, but in the divine, Awakening the infinite, within our hearts' call, Love's universal language, uniting one and all. The journey of self-discovery's brave start, Begins with the courage, to search within our heart, Ending with the wisdom, to embrace all that is, A tapestry of existence, where unity and diversity kiss. Every moment, an opportunity to elevate and shine, Contributing to the awakening, in this grand design, The power of intention, a force to behold, Align with love, and miracles unfold. In this tapestry of life, each thread so rare, A unique expression of the divine, we share, Honor the diversity, cherish the unity, For in this grand creation, we find our community.

If you have a system however complex, if the system works together coherently then we know A-Priori that each of the disparate parts work via a singular relation which allows all its parts to work together!! And the relation I believe is consequence which is what the causal order relies on!! That relation is also the conservation of symmetry which is what logical consequence is, which is the singular principle on which all of mathematics is built on!! Take special relativity, in spite on time being relative we can determine each relative value via equations which would not work could not work without the principle symmetry or logical consequence acting as a thread running through every equation, it is what glues every part together!! We know there is a relation running through and which is applies to all parts A-Priori as we know when we see a coffee mug that there must be a single force or factor keeping all those atoms of the mug together, so it is an A-Priori knowing!!
