If you're at the Other Minds festival, I'm the guy in the floral flat cap (or possibly a rainbow kippah if my head gets very warm).

Just finally started in on Peter Godfrey-Smith's classic,
OTHER MINDS: The Octopus, the Sea and the Deep Origins of Consciousness.
Excellent stuff. Have you read it? Is he on Mastodon by any chance?

@yoohooair Thanks for the hint, seems like a must-see to me. I'm currently reading In the Shadow of Man by Jane Goodall, which seems like basically the same approach with chimpanzees instead of octopusses.
Have you read Other Minds by Peter Godfrey-Smith? Definitely worth reading for everyone interested in octopusses. Makes one wonder if these creatures have possibly already developed beyond us.
@rogward
I love these creatures and they never stop being fascinating. Also, for all those interested here, I again want to highly recommend Peter Godfrey-Smith's great book Other Minds, which looks at octopuses from the angle of evolution of intelligence and discusses them as a potential third evolution path of intelligence not yet taken into account.
