Cadell Last is a general thinker interested in questions about human existence and evolution. He is author of Global Brain Singularity, which focuses on the nature of temporality and the future of consciousness; and Sex, Masculinity, God, which focuses on the consequences of libidinal energy, gender identity and theological mysteries for our knowledge constructs. The tension between sex and love, as well as death and immortality, drives much of his current philosophical work, which is deeply informed by dialectics and psychoanalysis.

His next course through Philosophy Portal is on Hegel's Science of Logic and begins January 16 2023 @ https://philosophyportal.online/

Tim is the producer of Voicecraft. He is a philosopher whose work focuses on the relation between participation and transformation, and integrates metaphysical and scientific modes of understanding. The primary medium of this work lives in embodied relationality with friends, family, and peers. He is concerned with the vital connections between psyche, culture, and nature, and is developing networks and communities that support wiser contexts for education, contribution, and belonging.

An experimental session welcoming the musician and philosopher Alex Ebert, known by many as the singer-songwriter for Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes, and increasingly among a network of thinkers and philosophers seeking to understand the shifting dynamics and possibilities of the paradigms which underlie our cultural moment.

Held in the Voicecraft Network, the essence of this session sought to co-create a context that draws out the lived and living journey of a particular person, and in so doing, connect with the significance a particular voice is drawn to share with the whole. That is, a collective process whereby the group seeks to welcome the daimōn, the soul or genius of a person, to transmit the gift of their learning, perception, and expression, to a gathered community or network context.

You can read more about Alex, find links to his substack, read the full network invitation and the invited praxis of the session by visiting the show notes @ https://voicecraft.io/e65-elder-circle-w-alex-ebert-voicecraft-network/
