SUMMARY:Beyond Bohm 2025\, Part 2
DESCRIPTION:August 2 – 24\, 20258 two-hour sessions \n\n\n\n9:00am PDT | 12:00pm EDT | 5:00pm BST  |  6:00pm CEST \n\n\n\nAll sessions are live\, and include Q & A\, and all participants will receive the RECORDING.Each session: Full Price €15\, Member’s Discount €13.50Series tickets available. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeyond Bohm 2025\, Part 2\n\n\n\nFollowing an illuminating introduction to Bohm’s revolutionary physics\, we embark on an exploration of potentiality and its intricate relationship with actuality\, drawing upon the insights of both Bohm and Charles Burton Martin; we will delve deeply into the terrain of panpsychism\, examining consciousness not as a mere biological phenomenon confined to humans and animals\, but as a fundamental architectural principle woven into the very fabric of physical reality; we investigate whether Bohmian quantum theory might inspire new forms of psycho-physical laws; we will examine the conception of ‘strict monism’ and its relation to Bohm’s ideas of undivided wholeness; we will illuminate Bohm’s distinctive philosophy of science as manifested in his causal interpretation of quantum theory; we will consider the implications of quantum materials on humanity’s evolutionary trajectory\, examining how these emerging technologies may fundamentally reshape our civilizational future; and we provide an introduction to a new worldview: the Dynamic Universe—a proposal that provides a new way of understanding relativistic phenomena. \n\n\n\nEvery session will have openings for question / answer and discussion with presenters. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgram of Event\n\n\n\nSaturday August 2Introduction to Bohm’s PhysicsJonathan AlldaySunday August 3Potentialities in Nature and the Nature of Potentialities: David Bohm’s 1951Quantum Theory and C.

The session structure may vary from speaker to speaker\, but in general participants will have the opportunity to ask questions of the presenter and in some cases there will be breakaway discussion groups.

SUMMARY:Beyond Bohm 2025\, Part 2 - Not Even One
DESCRIPTION:Not Even One \n\n\n\nwith William Seager \n\n\n\nSunday August 249:00am PDT  | 12:00pm EDT  | 5:00pm BST  |  6:00pm CEST 2-hour session. \n\n\n\nThe session is live and you will be sent the RECORDING. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere is a long tradition in thought and mysticism which holds that the world is\, somehow\, ONE. Here I survey the large variety of monisms to try to understand what the monistic claim really is. Following tradition and thinkers up to and including David Bohm\, one supreme form of monism keeps reappearing\, which I call ‘strict monism’. Strict monism makes the highly paradoxical claim that all differentiation\, diversity\, categorization and conceptualization is fundamentally misrepresentingreality. Despite the intuitive implausibility of this position\, a number of arguments point in its direction\, although – as befits the nature of strict monism – arguments themselves are part of the misrepresentation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWilliam Seager is Professor of philosophy at the University of Toronto Scarborough. He has been working on the the philosophy of mind and especially the problem of consciousness for about 45 years\, but still hasn’t gotten very far. Two recent books of his are Theories of Consciousness (2nd ed. 2016) and The Routledge Handbook of Panpsychism (2020).
