Have you tuned in to our latest episode yet? In it, @xtinadlr, @fastfrwrd and @arielkroon discuss #idealism and #pragmatism - and #incrementalism, too.

We spend the first part of the episode defining terms and discussing examples, then we dive into the second half where we talk about how we think these ideas might apply (or don't) to #solarpunk.

The most-valuable idea I have got from this book so far is that #consciousness could be an #emergent #property of #matter in the same way magnetic fields, for example, are an emergent property. I tend to lean toward #Idealism, in terms of what I would \*like to believe\*, but as a #dhamma practitioner I also appreciate the teachings of #dependent #origination, which says that mind and matter (namarupa) arise in dependence on each other and other phenomena. 1/2

Open Humanities Press is pleased to announce the #openaccess publication of The Rubble of Culture: Debris of an Extinct Thought by David A. Collings:

http://www.openhumanitiespress.org/books/titles/the-rubble-of-culture/

'Humanity now faces the possibility it will become extinct over the next few decades or so. This raises the prospect of thought’s own #extinction. But what does it mean for thought that it, too, might disappear?

No familiar practice rests on a secure ground; under the prospect of humanity’s extinction, each one is shattered. The cultural legacy becomes a field of rubble.

This book moves through this field to reconsider the emergence of #capitalism and #biopower the science of #climate change, and philosophies of #temporality

In the process it contends with many innovative waves of thought from the past two centuries, from German #idealism to #deconstruction, from #psychoanalysis to #queertheory, from #decolonizing theory to #afropessimism, and from the critique of #ideology to speculative realism.'
