Henri Bergson (1859 - 1941) was an influential philosopher, nobel prize winner, and international celebrity. He is the epitome of philosophy in action: his commitment to a life of social justice, ethics, and equity saw him lead in the League of Nations (1920 - 1925). In this episode, we take on Bergson's project and his attempt to describe the indescribable: life itself. What sense of self does Bergson theorise? What does Jurassic Park have to do with it all?
