Meta-Dialogue: mar 14

Origins of the universe:

• The Fire in the Equations
• GEB
• Ascent of Man
• The Copernican Revolution

What is the essence of human beings? (identity)

• GEB
• Meno
• Ascent of Man

What makes us more human? What makes me be me?

We are always changing. Is change part of us?

We have been able t o interpret the universe throughout our senses. (Bronowski, Copernican)
but our senses  also limit us (Fire in the Equations).
You can see this clearly in The Copernican Revolution . Our senses told us something, but at the end they were wrong. (Ptolomy)

Our senses give us theories.
If we take our spectacles as theory, we see everything through that theory.
There are several options of thing we could do with our spectacles:

• We can change our glasses.
• We can modify our glasses. 
• We can put on many glasses at the same time. 
• We can wear no glasses. 

We also have many different perspectives: a kid, adult, cubist (Fire).
The cubist is like having many glasses on at the same time. We have many different ways of seeing things.

Even if we  do millions of experiments, each result can be totally different. (Popper).
We will never know with certainty if a theory is correct or not.
