Re: Saving the materialists

PS: about your wrist, sorry about that. I've just heard great comments about this app, in case you want to try it: https://wisprflow.ai/ Thanks! Funnily enough, most of my above comment (and this one) was written with exactly that app :) I do highly recommend it as well, as it is the best one I ...

Re: Saving the materialists

Yes, I read the book and appreciated it. Yet, getting what HHU - or sound common sense - really means in Steiner is not so easy. It's a thin line. For example, in this lecture (1922) it appears clearly that sound common sense refers to someone who has not developed clairvoyance. And so the question ...

Re: Saving the materialists

I'm not sure if we have mentioned this before on the forum, but I've recently been reviewing Kuhlewind's book " Working with Anthroposophy ," which is extremely relevant to our ongoing discussions about the bridge from ordinary intellectual experience to a living understanding of spiritual science ...

Re: The Game Loop: Part 5 In Search of the Fundamental Inputs II

Thank you very much, Cleric, for Part 5! I can also see the similarities between Chess and the way how proving a mathematical theorem works. Although not the same, there's also this certain intuitive activity, the imagination, that plays through the different "inner movements" allowed within a ...

Re: The Game Loop: Part 3 Interleaved IO flows II

Briefly, I think most VR systems today still use controllers to interface the player with the game flow. I suppose the ideal is to do away with these such that bodily movements can directly translate into in-game actions and make the experience more immersive. Yet I think there would still need to ...

Re: The Game Loop: Part 4 In Search of the Fundamental Inputs I

Most of our daily actions form a kind of palette that has been developed and refined throughout our life. It is a more or less rigid vocabulary that formats our inputs. So the first hint is that we should pay closer attention to the not-yet fully formatted kinds of inner activity, before they have ...

Re: Understanding Steiner's Philosophy

I only listened to Segall's. It was heavy on philosophical correspondences with Whitehead, as usual. Phenomenological prompts were generally absent. I think some of the other presentations leaned pretty strongly into what JvH discussed above, criticizing Steiner for being a 'child of his times ...

Re: The Game Loop: Part 3 Interleaved IO flows II

Here a possible speculative question arises when we notice how certain technology may reduce the level of indirection in our interactions with the game of life. For example, in a VR interface (game or other) the level of the game controllers is taken away. The idea is that out biological sphere of ...
