I’ve been thinking about offering lectures designed to help humanities people think. If you feel like doing something for free that may help some people but at the very least generate some interesting debate for you, I would like to offer a hand in cooperation.
I was thinking about getting together enough quality material (presentations, accompanying write up and a literature list) for about six 45 minute lectures followed by a bit of Q&A time and debate, with the early ones enticing and the later ones selecting people away. Its purpose would be to get rid of some of the activation energy needed to start thinking about being less wrong, especially about things those majors tend to think wrongly about, but would of course fall very much short of a “rationality education” or even a rationality “class”.
I’m organizing a group in brazil to centralize latin american transhuman activities. We are still not as organized as it would be necessary to get to the point you suggest. But I am sure that by february we will.
Which means that if you want you can send me e-mails about me to keep me enticed, and as soon as we (there are 3 of us currently) have an organized website, I will contact you back?
Is this good for you? I’m open to suggestions.
