Exploring the Hard Problems of Mind and Life - Adam Safron

The ultimate goal of this podcast is understanding what it means to be alive, conscious, and free (to choose life).

In the first series of interviews, Barry Komisaruk and I discuss biological rhythms, excitation-inhibition balances, self-organized criticality, the nature(s) of pleasure and pain, consciousness, agency, and more.

Future podcasts will have discussions with additional scholars, with the goal of going into greater depth than is common practice. Some conversations will be brief, and others will be longer series. Please contact me if you're interested in exploring ideas.
