*Derick*, thanks: I'll definitely check that out!

*Gregg*: Wowza, I didn't realize UTOK theorized at the level of fundamental
physics. Have there been any updates to this lately (I see this diagram is
from 2001)?

*Untying the Gordian Knot* looks like a dense, fascinating (and expensive)
read! Perhaps this question has already been discussed before, but is there
an essential UTOK reading list/bibliography anywhere I could get my hands
on?

> SUMMARY:
>
> Dr. Matt Segall joins Brendan to talk about the relationship of process
> philosophy and the thinking of A. N. Whitehead to the formulation of an
> emerging metanarrative in metamodernity. In the context of our 13.7 billion
> years of emergent complexification, how does the story of consciousness
> evolution relate to issues such as dualism and the hard problem of
> consciousness, panpsychism, divine creativity, and mystical union?
>
>
>
> Dr. Segall's bio:
>
> Matthew D. Segall, PhD, received his doctoral degree in 2016 from the
> Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness program at CIIS. His dissertation
> was titled Cosmotheanthropic Imagination in the Post-Kantian Process
> Philosophy of Schelling and Whitehead. It grapples with the limits to
> knowledge of reality imposed by Kant's transcendental form of philosophy
> and argues that Schelling and Whitehead's process-oriented approach
> (described in his dissertation as a "descendental" form of philosophy)
> shows the way across the Kantian threshold to renewed experiential contact
> with reality. He teaches courses on German Idealism and process philosophy
> for the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness program at CIIS. He blogs
> regularly at footnotes2plato.com
