cruel to be kind

Dannie Jost, writer, philosopher and part time poet, is going to present a talk on “Theoretical Man – being human right there with public man”

Dannie and I talk about:

• why “human?” is one of the most fascinating questions
• “theoretical man” was born at lift, but already had a bit of a history
• “the I and the We” – balancing of a certain paradox
• as human we are genderless
• how we use language to communicate the levels of abstraction
• theory is not about truth, it is about being a model
• why the romans already knew a lot about management
• human behaviour in a quantum mechanic way
• the interplay of emotion and intellect

Sadly there is a interference during the recording when speaking – thankfully it is on my side, not when the important person speaks, aka Dannie!
