Podcasts about Scientific theory

The Trump Administration has been extremely busy in the first two months of its term; it's hard to keep up. One of its targets has been science-themed government websites and agencies.

Have we completely abandoned the idea of the supernatural? Could there still be important truths that lie outside of the natural world?Join philosopher Fiona Ellis as she explains her version of naturalism, arguing that there is still some middle ground to be found between the world of the natural and the realm of the supernatural.Fiona is professor of Philosophy and Religion at University of Roehampton, and also the former president of the British Society for Philosophy of Religion. Her work focuses on the relationship between experience and physical things, as we;; as the nature of value.

Eifrige Hörer des Podcasts werden bemerken, dass es bereits eine Episode zum Thema gab, nämlich Episode 10 mit dem Titel »Komplizierte Komplexität« aus dem Jahr 2019. Es lohnt sich auch, diese nochmals nachzuhören, aber nach fünf Jahren ist es an der Zeit, hier ein Update zu machen. Ganz besonders auch deshalb, weil ich wieder einen hervorragenden Gesprächspartner zum Thema virtuell einladen durfte, Dr. Marco Wehr. Dr. Marco Wehr ist Physiker und promovierter Wissenschaftstheoretiker. Als vielfach ausgezeichneter Autor und Redner beschäftigt er sich mit Fragen der Vorhersehbarkeit, der Rolle des Körpers für das Denken und der Beziehung von Gehirn und Computer. Marco Wehr ist Gründer und Leiter des Philosophischen Labors in Tübingen. Sein neues Buch »Komplexe neue Welt« ist natürlich eine der Grundlagen für dieses Gespräch. Es ist unlängst zum Wissensbuch des Jahres 2024 vorgeschlagen worden. Link zum Buch natürlich wie immer in den Shownotes. Marco beschäftigt sich auch mit der Frage der Modellierung, und sein aktuelles Vortrags-Format für 2025 heißt folgerichtig: »Die Macht mathematischer Modelle«. Wir beginnen mit der Frage, was der Unterschied zwischen komplexen und komplizierten Systemen oder Fragestellungen ist, zumal diese beiden Begriffe umgangssprachlich oft synonym verwendet werden. Was kann man in dieser Hinsicht von Mandelbrot-Fraktalen lernen? Welche Systeme der Welt sind irreduzibel? “Can one predict what will happen? No, there's what I call computational irreducibility: in effect the passage of time corresponds to an irreducible computation that we have to run to know how it will turn out.”, Stephen Wolfram Wie kann man feststellen, ob man ein kompliziertes oder komplexes Problem vor sich hat? Was sind »Inseln der Propheten«? Gibt es eine kognitive Täuschung in den Naturwissenschaften? Der US-amerikanische Wissenschaftsforscher John Ioannidis hält Menschen (und besonders auch Wissenschafter), die glauben, zu viel zu wissen, für eine große Gefahr. Schon der bedeutende Philosoph des 20. Jahrhunderts, Karl Popper, hat dies sehr deutlich ausgedrückt: »Jeder Intellektuelle hat eine ganz spezielle Verantwortung. Er hat das Privileg und die Gelegenheit, zu studieren. Dafür schuldet er es seinen Mitmenschen (oder der Gesellschaft), die Erkenntnisse seines Studiums in der einfachsten und klarsten und bescheidensten Form darzustellen. Das Schlimmste – eine Sünde gegen den heiligen Geist – ist, wenn die Intellektuellen es versuchen, sich ihren Mitmenschen gegenüber als große Propheten aufzuspielen und sie mit orakelnden Philosophien zu beeindrucken. Wer's nicht einfach und klar sagen kann, der soll schweigen und weiterarbeiten, bis er's klar sagen kann.«  Dann sprechen wir über den Laplacesche Dämon und was man von ihm über die Welt und die Entstehung der Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung lernen kann?  Wie hat Urbain Le Verrier den Neptun vorhergesagt?  »Ich möchte, dass man das, was man weiß, und das, was man nicht weiß, deutlich voneinander unterscheidet.« Wie erkennt man einen Experten und wer repräsentiert Wissenschaft? Was sind Rückkopplung und Resonanz und warum ist es so entscheidend, diese Phänomene in komplexen Systemen zu verstehen? Wo sind die Grenzen eines Modells? Gibt es eine saubere Trennung zwischen Beobachter und Modell? Was sind Signaturen komplexer oder chaotischer Systeme? Begehen wir in der heutigen wissenschaftlichen Praxis zu häufig den Fehler »im Licht zu suchen«, statt dort, wo es sinnvoll wäre — besonders in den Bereichen, die man im weiteren Sinne als Data-Science bezeichnet? Man kann versuchen, die Welt zu verstehen, oder die lösbaren Probleme der Welt herauszupicken und daraus falsche Schlüsse über die Welt zu ziehen. Was ist die stoische Landkarte, wie kann und diese weiterhelfen? Hypothese ist immer vor der Empirie und damit bekommen begründete Vorannahmen eine wichtige Rolle im wissenschaftlichen Prozess.  Dazu kommt, dass es nie nur ein Modell gibt, das zu bestimmten Daten »passt«, dies wird auch als Duhem-Quine Hypothese bezeichnet. Was bedeutet dies am Beispiel der Klimamodellierung oder Wirtschaftsmodellen? Kann man die Inseln des Wissens von den Inseln des Unwissens unterscheiden? Welche Rolle spielen Vulkane und andere Naturkatastrophen? Warum ist die Energiewende in Deutschland schiefgegangen? »Am deutschen Wesen soll die Welt genesen...« Die Welt lernt in der Tat von Deutschland, aber wohl eher am Versagen Deutschlands. Das mag gut für die Welt sein, ist aber schlecht für Deutschland. Wie ist das dazu gekommen? Was sind »intellektuelle Insulaner«? Was sind Komplexitätsfallen – natürliche vs. künstliche — heute haben wir es mit beiden zu tun und einer Mischung/Interaktion von beiden? Noch kritischer sind hybride Komplexitätsfallen oder Komplexitätsmonster — wie kommen diese zustande? Was versteht man unter emergenten Effekten? Was sind existenzielle Risiken, und warum ist ein Fokus auf »Klima« kontraproduktiv — Carrington-Event als Beispiel. “There are no solutions, only tradeoffs”, Thomas Sowell Wie gehen wir als Individuen mit radikaler Unsicherheit in komplexen Systemen um? »We control nothing, but we influence everything«, Brian Klaas Was ist die richtige Balance zwischen Sicherheit und Unsicherheit? Ist diese erreichbar? »Die meisten Menschen wollen nicht in einer total vorhersagbaren Welt leben, auch wenn sie das behaupten.« Wie kommen wir als Gesellschaft wieder aus den zahlreichen schweren Problemen heraus, in denen wir uns in den letzten Jahren verstrickt haben? Offene Diskussion scheint das wesentlichste zu sein. Kontroverse steht im Zentrum von Wissenschaft und daraus folgt offener und kritischer gesellschaftlicher Diskurs.  Referenzen Andere Episoden Episode 107: How to Organise Complex Societies?

New attention from historians and journalists is raising pointed questions about the founding period: was the American revolution waged to preserve slavery, and was the Constitution a pact with slavery or a landmark in the antislavery movement? We have long needed a history of the founding that fully includes Black Americans in the Revolutionary protests, the war, and the debates over slavery and freedom that followed. We now have that history in Pulitzer Prize–winning historian Edward J. Larson's insightful synthesis of the founding. Throughout Larson's brilliant history, it is the voices of Black Americans that prove the most convincing of all on the urgency of liberty. Shermer and Larson discuss: Was America founded in 1619 or 1776? • What is/was an “American”? • Founding Fathers attitudes toward slavery • What was the justification of slavery? • constitutional convention and slavery compromises • U.S. Constitution and slavery • Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments • Atlantic slave trade • Fugitive Slave Act and Clause • Native Americans • monogenism vs. polygenism • slavery abolition • Quakers push for abolition • Three-fifths Compromise • The Dread Scott Decision and the Civil War • Abraham Lincoln and his rational argument for ending slavery • the future of race relations in America. Edward J. Larson is the author of many acclaimed works in American history, including the Pulitzer Prize–winning history of the Scopes Trial, Summer for the Gods. He also authored Franklin and Washington: The Founding Partnership, The Return of George Washington 1783-1789, A Magnificent Catastrophe: The Tumultuous Election of 1800—America's First Presidential Campaign, An Empire of Ice: Scott, Shackleton, and the Heroic Age of Antarctic Science, To the Edges of the Earth: 1909, the Race for the Three Poles, and the Climax of the Age of Exploration, and the textbook Evolution: The Remarkable History of a Scientific Theory. He is University Professor of History and Hugh and Hazel Darling Chair in Law at Pepperdine University.

In this episode Dr. Dave Hone from Queen Mary University of London joins me to talk about the life of Charles Darwin and how he developed natural selection as a mechanism for evolution. 

Notes on Complexity: A Scientific Theory of Connection, Consciousness, and Being by Neil Theise https://amzn.to/3XLYTqa An electrifying introduction to complexity theory, the science of how complex systems behave, that explains the interconnectedness of all things and that Deepak Chopra says, “will change the way you understand yourself and the universe.” Nothing in the universe is more complex than life. Throughout the skies, in oceans, and across lands, life is endlessly on the move. In its myriad forms—from cells to human beings, social structures, and ecosystems--life is open-ended, evolving, unpredictable, yet adaptive and self-sustaining. Complexity theory addresses the mysteries that animate science, philosophy, and metaphysics: how this teeming array of existence, from the infinitesimal to the infinite, is in fact a seamless living whole and what our place, as conscious beings, is within it. Physician, scientist, and philosopher Neil Theise makes accessible this “theory of being,” one of the pillars of modern science, and its holistic view of human existence. He notes the surprising underlying connections within a universe that is itself one vast complex system—between ant colonies and the growth of forests, cancer and economic bubbles, murmurations of starlings and crowds walking down the street. The implications of complexity theory are profound, providing insight into everything from the permeable boundaries of our bodies to the nature of consciousness. Notes on Complexity is an invitation to trade our limited, individualistic view for the expansive perspective of a universe that is dynamic, cohesive, and alive—a whole greater than the sum of its parts. Theise takes us to the exhilarating frontiers of human knowledge and in the process restores wonder and meaning to our experience of the everyday.

Dear Gastronauts,

Can empirical observation lead us to the truth?Looking for a link we mentioned? It's here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimesFrom Newton to Darwin, Curie to Einstein, science has been built on empirical observation. Now the very idea of neutral observation is under threat. In a postmodern world it is claimed all observation is perspectival, everything we see influenced by what we already think. The founder of quantum mechanics, Heisenberg went further arguing that observing reality was not even possible. Are we at sea in a world of competing models? Or is it time to reassert the value of empirical observation, supported perhaps by machine learning and big data, as a means of choosing between incompatible theories?Steve Fuller is an academic studying science and technology. Fuller has published prolifically on such topics as intelligent design, the sociology of academia, and transhumanism. Angela Saini is an award-winning science journalist, author and broadcaster. She regularly presents science programmes for the BBC, and her writing has appeared in publications ranging from New Scientist, Wired and the Guardian.Rupert Sheldrake is a biologist and bestselling author.

There actually is a theory of creation that is more plausible than the theory of evolution. We look outside and see birds...lots of birds...all different varieties. The evidence is that birds can differentiate into varieties, but never become something other than birds. That's why we can classify all animals so easily into various kinds. God created the kinds. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/bill-mundhausen/support

This week, we're diving into the Multiverse! But not the one Marvel tells you about. We're looking at actual Multiverse theory, how it came to be, and why it could explain many parts of our reality! Did you know some scientists believe that our universe is connected to an infinite amount of other universes? Did you also know that both the thing that causes this theory, and is explained by this theory is right around us? Multiverse theory provides unlimited possibilities - some universes abundant with life (much more than ours is known to be right now), and others where matter can't even exist. It's unlimited possibilities, and there's a lot to talk about!The same element that influences multiverse theory also plays a pivotal role in another scientific theory - something we're all more familiar with thanks to the newest Marvel movies. We're talking about String Theory! It's the idea that while we can only perceive four dimensions (length, width, depth, and time), there may be as many as 6 more dimensions that we can't perceive. Views of our reality with limitless other possibilities, including parallel realities with subtle decision-making difference throughout that influence different outcomes. Or, entirely alternate realities with completely different conclusions. And, realities and perceptions entirely devoid of the passage of time. Again, the possibilities are endless.So, how did this theory come to be? It helps explain/is somewhat caused by quantum physics. These are things that take place on a sub-molecular level, and may be influencing the world and universe around us in ways we can't even fathom. This leads into the theory that these unrealized dimensions are either so big, or so small that we can't perceive them.

What does evolutionary science have to do with the art world? A fascinating conversation with Richard Prum, a leading thinker in evolutionary ornithology who has developed a theory that impacts how we think about artistic genius, radicality, and the art world at large.

Some say ‘it's just a theory', but does evolution even qualify to be called a scientific theory? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/answerstv/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/answerstv/support

The word “Gaia”  re-emerged in the 1960’s as a metaphor describing the inter relationship between all life on Earth. Trevor begins by describing the origins of the word “Gaia” and the role of James Lovelock in presenting the Earth as a self regulated holistic system. He then talks about the spirituality associated with the idea of Gaia and its interpretation through scientific hypothesis.  The spirituality of Gaia is rooted in pre-history with modern Gaia grounded in scientific theory. Humanity is required to reconnect and honour a deep connection with all life in order that consciousness might evolve. The idea of Gaia provides a unifying template through which we can work to bring about changes harmonious to both the biotic and abiotic environments  on planet Earth combining both technology and spirituality.   The Wessex Research Group archive contains those lectures that have been digitised and are freely downloadable as a personal educational resource. https://www.wessexresearchgroup.org

In the bitter debates over evolution, it is a common practice for the defenders of the orthodox Darwinian approach to argue that not only is Intelligent Design (ID) theory wrong, but it doesn't even count as a scientific theory. After all, so the orthodox defenders argue, you can't really test to see if an intelligent being created life on Earth, and so ID must be excluded from biology, period. Bob argues that this particular rhetorical move is obviously bogus, and gives two simple examples to show why. Mentioned in the Episode and Other Links of Interest: A 2007 statement from the Union of Concerned Scientists (https://ncse.ngo/union-concerned-scientists-2007) on why Intelligent Design is not a scientific theory (among other alleged problems).

Hello fellow Spirit Nerds, we are back! This time we come bearing the extra special gift of our 1st instalment featuring all things OUIJA BOARD. Epic, we know. In this episode we'll discuss basic cleansing techniques to use on a Ouija Board if you happen to find your board on the side of the road like Allison did. Plus basic "How To's" when using a Ouija Board - including the importance of setting the mood + creating some general ambience & drama. We've got any skeptical notions covered too with some compelling evidence featuring popular scientific theories used to debunk Ouija sessions. Evidence that's convincing enough for our own resident Psychic Medium. We even include a very simple test you can perform when gauging the validity of your own session at home. Finally we cap off the episode by delving deeply into the origin story of the Ouija Board - which like the board itself, is shrouded in mystery. Did you know that the board may have even named itself after a popular woman rights activist? We bet you didn't! Tune in if you want to learn all of that & more. And as always, thank you for listening. We kind of, sort of, heart you.

Dr. Bruce Damer, scientist, designer, author, as well as founder and CEO of DigitalSpace (digitalspace.com), provides a thorough overview and analysis of the origin of life as well as his vast experimentation in the area of physics-based simulations for space research. Dr. Damer is a distinguished computer scientist and active associate researcher in the Department of Biomolecular Engineering at the University of California at Santa Cruz. Dr. Damer's work with Prof. David Deamer led to the publishing of “Coupled Phases and Combinatorial Selection in Fluctuating Hydrothermal Pools: A Scenario to Guide Experimental Approaches to the Origin of Cellular Life” and, an article in the journal, Life, “A Field Trip to the Archaean in Search of Darwin's Warm Little Pond.” Their collaborative research, work, and publishing has created a surge of new interest in the subject of life's origin and kept the scientific community buzzing. Dr. Damer talks about the origin of life and his theories. He discusses Darwin's “warm little pond” theory, which Dr. Damer and Prof. Deamer have updated. As he explains, when you have a situation in which warm water is filling up an area, then draining, in a cyclical way, this creates an opportunity for life, an opportunity to make all sorts of biopolymers in a primordial soup as he refers to it. He discusses his research and experimentation that was able to create RNA, which is a necessary polymer of life.  Dr. Damer's company, DigitalSpace is an innovative international corporation with a focus on the creation of virtual worlds for industrial design engineering, education as well as public outreach. In fact, it was DigitalSpace that produced notable first rounds of internet-based 3D avatar applications. From virtual events and tradeshows to advanced learning spaces for K-12 and college, complex corporate information sharing spaces for efficiency, and of course virtual worlds for artists, DigitalSpace is innovating in multiple industries. The science expert states that the barriers to creating lifeforms in a lab are time and the amount of experiments that would be necessary. He theorizes that life often tried to start then failed over historical time periods. He details random selection and mutation, and the power of a network. He describes in detail the network effect, and elaborates on progenotes, which are the last universal common ancestors, also called the last universal ancestor. Thus, as he theorizes our common ancestor was actually a network. Dr. Damer recounts many and various experiments that he has been involved with in regard to life and its origin. He provides a detailed overview of experimentation that has occurred regarding 3D modeling and physics-based simulations for a wide range of space missions, and he talks about their upcoming work with cubesats, which are miniaturized satellites for space research. Since the beginning of the 21st century, DigitalSpace has been an important player in key contracts with Adobe, NASA and other federal agencies, as well as prime contractors to produce a myriad of advanced virtual environments for space mission design and training, and so much more.

This episode we travel to a future where you can choose to turn off your ability to deceive yourself. Are you now a perfectly clear eyed genius? Or a perpetually depressed misanthrope? Maybe both?     This episode was suggested by my mom. It begins with two tales of self deception, one from Jacquelyn Gill, an assistant professor of paleo-ecology at the University of Maine and the host of a podcast about climate change called Warm Regards, and the other from Beth Duckles, a writer, researcher, ethnographer and social scientist. Then we talk to Zoë Chance, an assistant professor of marketing at the Yale School of Management and an expert on self-deception. After that, we go to therapy, and Chamin Ajjan, a clinical psychotherapist and author of Seeking Soulmate: Ditch the Dating Game and Find Real Connection explains what she does when she sees a case of self-deception in her office. And finally, Erik Vance, science journalist and author of Suggestible You: The Curious Science of Your Brain's Ability to Deceive, Transform, and Heal helps us understand what might really happen if we could truly turn off this ability to deceive ourselves.     Further reading:    Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy: Self Deception  The Elements of a Scientific Theory of Self-Deception  People don’t know when they’re lying to themselves  Temporal view of the costs and benefits of self-deception  The slow decay and quick revival of self-deception   DENIAL: Self-Deception, False Beliefs, and the Origins of the Human Mind   Suggestible You: The Curious Science of Your Brain's Ability to Deceive, Transform, and Heal  Seeking Soulmate: Ditch the Dating Game and Find Real Connection    Patrons are going to get a really fun bonus segment next week that didn’t quite make it into this episode.

[Conf.] Reduction and emergence play a central role in the relations of scientific theories and disciplines. Unfortunately, the discussion about reduction and emergence suffers from two uncertainties at once. On the one hand the concepts of reduction and especially emergence are not precisely defined, on the other hand there are few if any uncontentious cases of reduction or emergence in the sciences. This conference will bring together philosophers of science and scientists of different disciplines with the aim of addressing the inter- and intratheoretic relations of specific theories and providing precise notions of such relations for the application in the sciences. These relations can then serve as a basis for explications of reduction and emergence that are applicable in the sciences. | Center for Advanced Studies & Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy: 14.-16.11.2013

[Lect.] Matter is composed of small elementary particles whose behavior is predicted very accurately by modern physics. This has led to the suggestion that the fundamental theories of physics are ‘theories of everything’, since in principle they describe the evolution of all matter in the universe. But does the behavior of molecules, magnets and proteins really reduce to that of quarks, gluons and electrons? It often rather seems that the phenomena that occur at larger scales and with more complex systems are genuinely novel and hence emergent. We will examine these philosophical questions and draw philosophical morals with regard to the nature of modeling from the debate. | Center for Advanced Studies: 13.11.2013 | Speakers: Dr. Sebastian Lutz, Dr. Karim Thébault | Moderation: Prof. Dr. Stephan Hartmann
