🧩 “Is #structure the true #reality?”🌐
In the current #Zoomposium, we discuss with #MichaelEsfeld why #reality does not consist of things, but of #structures and #relationships. His moderate ontic #structural realism combines #quantum physics, #metaphysics, and #consciousness.

🌍 “#Reality is innocent—it is our #concepts that are guilty.” 📖
In a new #guestarticle, #BerndStein proposes an #epistemologicalshift in #perspective:
👉 It is not #properties that are fundamental, but #possibilities of #description.
👉 The #mathematics of #quantum theory does not say what the #world is like, but under what #conditions it can be determined
💬 Contradictions welcome at: https://philosophies.de/index.php/2025/12/20/die-realitaet-ist-unschuldig/

Cool, accessible article over at #Aeon about the strangeness and complexity of atoms and their components, and how the popular idea that atoms are mostly empty space is problematic.
(The author mentions an episode of Cosmos in which Sagan says that, and which I remember vividly despite the decades in between)
