Simon Anholt
Anholt poses the question “Which country does the most good?” In his talk, the policy advisor ranks countries on how much “good” they do in the ever-expanding process of globalization. This is part of an international survey that he calls “The Good Country Index”. It is Anholt’s hope that this will help inspire countries to cease living like their own little island and instead decide to reach out and expand for the good of humanity.
Your reputation is only rented. And if you find ways to keep paying the rent, it helps you to stay where you are.
Renata Salecl
Philosopher Salecl states that in a modern, capitalist driven world, we are trained to take our own personal choices too seriously. She lectures that personal choices can allow us to be lead to feelings of guilt, uncertainty and inadequacy. In a world focused on obtaining perfection, these feelings cause us to become politically immobile and self-centered. Rather than become focused on these negative feelings towards ourselves, Salecl insists that we start focusing more on the choices we are making as a collective society.
Why do we still rely on the idea of the self-made man, which capitalism is based on? As psychoanalysts know, people don’t have a passion for knowledge; they have a passion for ignorance.
Heather Barnett
Barnett presents a talk on creating a semi-intellgent slime mold using Physarum polycephalum. While this single celled organism has no brain nor central nervous system, it shows a primitive form of memory, problem-solving skills and the apparent ability to make decisions.
It is also quite beautiful and makes therefore for a great creative collaborator. Although ultimately I cannot control the final outcome, it is a rather independent organism.
