About this Event
Freedom of the Mind: Philosophy Salon
Freedom is a fundamental value and it underwrites everything we do. What is the purpose of living a life if you are not free? However, many people come to believe that freedom is an illusion. The threat comes from different sides - philosophical determinism, personal experience, or understanding how the brain works. Still, for many, freedom remains a reality and an ideal. In this philosophy salon, we will focus on a particular kind of freedom - freedom of the mind. What does it mean for our thinking to be free? Is this kind of freedom available to us, or are we forever stuck in our biological cage?

Philosophy Salons
The Philosophy Salons are gatherings of curious people to explore big ideas with an open mind. The Philosophy Salons are organized by Anya Farennikova, a philosopher of mind based in Amsterdam. We dive deep into beliefs and ideas, dive out, and have fun along the way!
