Unlike Fresco here is some smart talk on embodied cognition and Hyper Realism instead of senseless macumba Idealism for a change. The interview is clear enough to let you grasp the topic at hand but falls short when it comes to predicate the re-examination of Human mind with Human mind itself at centre stage which obviously can't be done. On that regard the interview was a failure and a contradiction in terms! It will be XIX Century Positivist Science who will fall short of delivering ultimate understanding, or a Theory of Everything, not Philosophy. Philosophy never claimed direct access to a ultimate domain of knowledge (although in Western tradition it can be said that in many occasions it hoped for one)...Philosophy was from the very start well aware that mind and world meld together when it comes to analysis of Reality... the new paradigm in Philosophy doesn't deny a Reality is there but embraces embodied cognitive species specific perspectivism, and for that matter the best we got to abstract away is Mathematics even if embodied in our specific cognitive biases and metaphors it has proven so far to be a powerful tool, although one with limits! Nothing that Bertrand Russel didn't knew already...
Enough talk to the video!

A masterpiece that surpasses anything done in the past 2 decades, definitely worth your time and full attention!
A very dark day in America!
I wonder how many people are fully aware what yesterday assault on the Capitol represented for America and how damaging it was for America's image around the world and all western democracies. I am speechless and have no further comments!
