Welcome to the June 2026 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). We take questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable number -- based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good -- and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy! Blog post with AMA questions and transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2026/06/01/ama-june-2026/ New paper I talk about in the beginning of the episode: S.M. Carroll, N. Diachenko, and S. Dulani, "Toward a Phenomenologically Acceptable Quantum Cyclic Universe."

On this week's Amigos, we jump through flaming hoops and dodge flying sawblades to review Fiendish Freddy's Big Top O' Fun on the Amiga, Mindscape's chaotic 1989 multi-event classic that blends circus showmanship with murderous dark humor.

Did I have any freedom in choosing this particular podcast guest? At the level of particles, fields, and the fundamental laws of physics; no. At the level of human agents navigating the world, yes. Today's guest, Christian List, is a philosopher and political scientist who has arguably done the most to articulate the "compatibilist" perspective on free will, according to which the freedom of rational agents is entirely compatible with underlying mechanistic laws. The reconciliation depends on thinking carefully about emergence and the relationship between levels of reality. Take your personal data back with Incogni!

Economic markets are efficient ways of deciding fair prices, at least in ideal circumstances of perfect competition, information, and choice. But there is more to life than fair prices. Two people might decide on a fair price to carry out a contract killing, but society generally frowns on the idea. Many examples of morally contestable markets feature less consensus than that one: sex work, drugs, selling organs, adopting children. In his new book Moral Economics, economist Alvin Roth investigates how we should reason through such tricky cases, and what we can learn from them.

On this episode of the Live Greatly podcast, Kristel Bauer sits down with behavioral scientist and author Leidy Klotz to explore how your environment shapes your mindset, relationships, and ability to perform at your best. Drawing from his new book, In a Good Place, Leidy shares how the spaces we live and work in can either support or limit our growth, connection, and sense of purpose—often in ways we don't consciously recognize. Kristel and Leidy dive into how small shifts in your surroundings can create meaningful changes in your habits, confidence, and overall well-being.

The connectome is the wiring diagram of a brain, a big matrix that tells us what neurons talk to what other neurons. Understanding it is an important step to understanding how brains work, but a long way from the final answer. A big next step is understanding how neuronal circuits connect to and guide bodily behavior. Very recent work on mapping the fruit-fly connectome has brought us closer to that goal. I talk with neuroscientist Bing Brunton about the connectome, how we can study it to understand bodily motion in flies and other creatures, and where it's all taking us.

We are more familiar with ourselves than with anything else in the universe, but we generally don't come very close to really understanding what our "self" is. That's not too surprising, as selves are very complicated and we are burdened by all sorts of biases. Today's guest is J. Eric Oliver, who has been teaching a popular course at the University of Chicago called "The Intelligible Self." His academic specialty is political science, but he brings together ideas from psychology, neuroscience, and a broad swath of the humanities. His view is summarized in his recent book, How to Know Yourself: The Art and Science of Discovering Who You Really Are. Take your personal data back with Incogni!

GIANO PUBLIC HISTORY APS LOVESCAPE 俳句 | Francesco LIOCE e Simone PANSOLIN. Japan Universal Poets Association, 2025 Traduzioni in giapponese a cura di Mariko Sumikura, in inglese a cura di Jim KacianCome suggerito dal titolo — un termine intraducibile in italiano, se non falsandone e snaturandone la singolarità — l'amore è la tematica che percorre l'intera opera. Infiniti sono i significati e le sfaccettature che l'idea di “amore” evoca e rappresenta per l'uomo, nel multiverso dei rapporti con la realtà, con l'altro, con sé. Una parola che, da sola, porta e sopporta tutto il bagaglio culturale di un'umanità capace di forgiare su di essa un intero mondo. Un concetto che non possiede un significato assoluto, se non nelle declinazioni del reale che ciascuno vi determina. Probabilmente, il solo elemento della vita (o quasi) in cui l'inconscio e la parte più estrema dello spirito – il guscio, potremmo dire – sembrano trovarsi perfettamente allineati verso un'univoca direzione creativa. L'atto di dedizione verso l'altro e verso sé trova voce all'interno delle due sezioni che compongono questa raccolta di haiku moderni: “Lovescape” (il “panorama d'amore” già contenuto nel titolo) e “Mindscape”, in cui viene esplorato lo scenario mentale dipinto nella mente di un uomo. Perché anche l'atto volontario di impegno verso il proprio subconscio è, a sua volta, un gesto d'amore. Simone Pansolin è un poeta e musicista genovese.Editing emmelleGIANO Public History APSè afferente al CISPH: Centro Interuniversitario per la Ricerca e lo Sviluppo sulla Public History, all'Albo della Cittadinanza Attiva e delle Reti Civiche del Comune di Roma, all'Albo delle Associazioni Culturali del Municipio Roma V ed è stata premiata ed annoverata tra le Eccellenze del Terzo settore dal Presidente della Commissione XII – Turismo, Moda e Relazioni Internazionali  di Roma Capitale e dalla Presidentessa della Commissione Patrimonio e Cultura del V Municipio di Roma capitale.GIANO PUBLIC HISTORY APSRubrica di proprietà di Giano Public History APS – Tutti i diritti riservati

"Lamarkism" is a term often attached to a seemingly discredited idea in evolutionary biology: that one organism could acquire characteristics (e.g., becoming stronger through exercise) that would then be inherited by its descendants. This is a different story than the one ultimately told by the modern synthesis of evolutionary biology, according to which inheritance passes through our genome (which doesn't know that we've been working out). In her book The Power of Life: The Invention of Biology and the Revolutionary Science of Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, historian of science Jessica Riskin argues that this picture is too simple, and that Lamarck made contributions we should still pay attention to: most significantly, the idea that organisms have a creative agency of their own, in addition to the influences of the outside world.

It is essential to overcome cognitive bias and availability bias through self-assessment and critical reflection.

Intelligence is a many splendored thing, especially when it comes to comparisons between species. Chimpanzees are better than humans at some numerical tasks, but less good at understanding what numbers actually mean. One window on the ways that species differ is how they play amongst themselves. I talk with anthropologist and cognitive scientist Erica Cartmill about modes of play and other social behaviors among various species, and what they reveal about the ways we all think.

Behaving rationally involves facing up to conditions of uncertainty; we never navigate the world with perfect confidence. Sometimes we are uncertain about the way the world is, but we can also be uncertain about our place within the world. This kind of situation arises in cosmology (where the relevant world can extend very far in space or time), and also in quantum mechanics (where new worlds might be created at any measurement), but also when we are simply unsure about the future history of humanity or whether we live in a computer simulation. I talk with philosopher Adam Elga about how to deal with these unique kinds of uncertainties. Upgrade your denim game with Rag & Bone!

It's possible to look at the course of history over the past few centuries and discern a movement toward increasing democracy, freedom, and individual rights -- "liberalism," in the political-philosophy sense of the term. But such movement isn't inevitable or irreversible, and in very recent times there have been both intellectual arguments explicitly pushing back against the liberal consensus, and political movements that are more openly nativist and authoritarian. I talk with Adam Gurri, the editor-in-chief of Liberal Currents, a web site that "publishes writers of diverse perspectives who share an unflinching commitment to freedom, pluralism, and democracy, in opposition to authoritarianism at home and around the world."

For all that human beings spend a lot of their time thinking, it's far from obvious what that process actually entails. Part of it amounts to classical logical reasoning. But an even bigger part involves reasoning with probability and uncertainty. And some of it is governed by unavoidable limitations on time and accuracy. Psychologist and computer scientist Tom Griffiths suggests that we have thought about it enough to feel that we have come to understand some general principles, which he explains in his new book The Laws of Thought: The Quest for a Mathematical Theory of Mind.

For the hour we talk about the so-called Science Wars of the 1990's, debates involving scientific approaches and shared understandings of a a measurable physical reality, post-modernism, the roles leftists and anarchists played in the debates and how cults and authoritarians employ anti-realist explanations of the world to limit their subjects' moves toward liberation.

In an age when digital media permeates every aspect of our lives, understanding its influence is more critical than ever. Algorithmic Saga: Understanding Media, Culture, and Transformation in the AI Age (Atique Mindscape Publishing, 2025), serves as a compass, guiding readers through the complexities of our interconnected world. From the moment we wake to a flurry of notifications to the late-night scrolling that often accompanies our downtime, we find ourselves enmeshed in a digital landscape that shapes our perceptions, relationships, and routines. The journey ahead will illuminate the dual-edged nature of technology—its ability to connect and empower as well as its potential to isolate and overwhelm. By examining the algorithms that curate newsfeeds and the social media platforms that redefine communication, this book unpacks the intricacies of modern digital life. But beyond the challenges lie opportunities; this book also highlights the ways in which digital media fosters social activism and creative expression, showcasing the remarkable power of collective voices and innovative ideas. Whether digital natives or just beginning to explore this expansive realm, readers will be equipped by this exploration with insights and tools to navigate the digital age thoughtfully. Discover how to harness technology's potential, ensuring it enriches rather than diminishes our lives. Guest: Dr. Muhammad Atique holds a PhD in Public Administration with a specialization in Digital Governance and has over fifteen years of combined experience in academia and media. He has published several peer-reviewed research articles on digital media, technology adoption, and governance.

In an age when digital media permeates every aspect of our lives, understanding its influence is more critical than ever. Algorithmic Saga: Understanding Media, Culture, and Transformation in the AI Age (Atique Mindscape Publishing, 2025), serves as a compass, guiding readers through the complexities of our interconnected world. From the moment we wake to a flurry of notifications to the late-night scrolling that often accompanies our downtime, we find ourselves enmeshed in a digital landscape that shapes our perceptions, relationships, and routines.

Welcome to the October 2025 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). We take questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable number -- based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good -- and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy!Blog post with AMA questions and transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2025/10/13/ama-october-2025/Support Mindscape on Patreon.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to the new season of the Maths on the Move podcast!  We start the season with theoretical physicist David Tong of the University of Cambridge looking at an important milestone in the history of physics: the 100th birthday of quantum mechanics which we celebrate this year. David tells us why a new theory was needed, which of the many strange aspects of quantum mechanics is, in his opinion, the most significant, and that Erwin Schrödinger had a tendency to be grumpy. David also tells us how quantum mechanics links to quantum field theory, the language in which all of modern physics is formulated, and reveals some mysterious connections between very different areas of physics — such as the theory of black holes and fluid mechanics. Join us in a wavy dance from the very small to the very large! For some background and further reading and viewing see: David Tong's series of text books A ridiculously short introduction to some very basic quantum mechanics A brief history of quantum field theory Heisenberg's uncertainty principle Maths in a Minute: Black holes What is general relativity? Plus asks David Tong Sean Carroll's Mindscape podcast featuring David Tong

Andrea Hairston is a playwright and the author of multiple books, including Redwood and Wildfire, Lonely Stardust, and Masters of Poison. Today, she visits The OTHERWORLDS to discuss her debut novel, Mindscape, which won the Carl Brandon Parallax Award and was nominated for the Philip K. Dick Award and James Tiptree Jr. Award after its original publication in 2006. Mindscape has been re-released by Tor 19 years after its original publication. Andrea chats about the dangers of siloing, Mindscape's relevance in the world today, how it feels having a book re-released by a major trad publisher 19 years after it's small press debut, manufacturing narratives to retain power, the key to changing the world, and hope.
