Lunchtime Video: James Bridle on Planetary Intelligence

Wednesday January 10th
Doors open 12.45pm; Video starts 1pm. 

Every Wednesday in January, we’ll be showing a recorded lecture at lunchtime in our ground floor space. Kairos will then be open all afternoon for anyone who would like to stay on and read in our library.

For this first video lecture of the new year we’re screening a talk by James Bridle, writer, artist, technologist and author of Ways of Being.

In this talk (delivered as part of Media Evolution’s 2022 Conference), James will argue that understanding forms of intelligence that are different to our own – from the “Artificial Intelligence” of super-computers, to the subtle differences we see in some primates, and the alien intelligence possessed by octopuses, plants and slime mould – can challenge our own limited world-view and help us to rethink our place in the world.
