Just published my first Substack today, and I’m excited to share it with you! It’s also available on my blog. It’s a short read, about 5 minutes long, and there’s even an audio version

Today’s post is called “Left Brain, Right Brain, Who’s the Master?” It’s a philosophical exploration of how the structure of our brains might explain the current crisis in American politics, and what we can do about it. I hope you’ll take a look and let me know what you think!

I appreciate Michael Corballis's disapproval of Iain McGilchrist's theories for going beyond neurological facts and making generalizations that are breathtaking in their sweep.

“Increasingly, I'm caught up in conversations with people all around the world about philosophical issues. I love it, I absolutely love it! But when you ask me to evaluate, is this a good thing? Or should I really be saying, what do I know? And just accepting the gift of life and its beauty in a generous spirit. I don't know, but I can't help myself. Ideas have always been the driver of my life. And so I love to talk about them, as I guess you can see.”

"There are mechanisms in a complex system, but... biology is having to at least sophisticate it and move on from there."

"There's something very exciting happening now, and it feels to me like physics in about 1910. (Biology is, you know, 100 and bit years later catching up.) Physics was all supposed to have been completed by 1900. Then suddenly the carpet is pulled right out from under their feet, and they still don't quite know what it is they're dealing with. I think the same thing is happening in biology..."

"There is a distinct difference between the modus operandi of the left hemisphere and the right. Left hemisphere procedures are highly computable. AI is really a way of pushing out the left hemisphere's mode of thinking into the environment. But what the right hemisphere does is strictly non-computable because it has no points of certainty in it. A computer needs at least one or two reference points with which to begin working, but in essence there is nothing but experience, either the experience of the cell, or the plant, or the root, or the whatever it is, and so it can't be engineered according to principles."

So I watched it. I have read the book and seen the George Clooney version, but not the Tarkovsky. Wow! And the movie is so relevant to McGilchrist’s book. #McGilchrist
