Our consciousness is a fundamental aspect of our
existence, says philosopher David Chalmers: “There’s nothing we know about more
directly…. but at the same time it’s the most mysterious phenomenon in the
universe.” He shares some ways to think about the movie playing in our heads.
In his work, David Chalmers explores the “hard
problem of consciousness" -- the quest to explain our subjective experience.

Quote of the Day
“ It's quite fashionable to say that the
education system's broken — it's not broken, it's wonderfully constructed. It's
just that we don't need it anymore. It's outdated."
