Science, Technology & Society

Dear STS friends,

Our next gathering will take place at my house on Friday, October 23rd at 5:00 PM.

We will discuss the subject of Consciousness. Many of you know Michael Pollan, who recently published a book about this subject titled A World Appears.

If you can read the book before we meet, please do so. Otherwise, please listen to his discussion with Ezra Klein at the following link: A World Appears

Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Best regards,

Michael Feygin

The STS Affiliated Group meets bi-monthly for potluck dinners at a Michael Feygin’s home (mfeygin1@gmail.com) to discuss evolving technologies and their impact on society. Topics for discussion are chosen by consensus. For each meeting, a volunteer researches the topic, provides preparatory materials, and facilitates the discussion.

Participation does not require any special scientific expertise, but rather a general awareness of current scientific issues and an interest in exploring how they are shaping our lives.
