The scientific community is fragmented, in a world where diversity of teams are the way to win.

Our aim is to harness diversity of backgrounds to better understand big ideas and phenomena.

Thanks to this, we hopefully can note and make connections, that we may not be able to imagine otherwise.

At its core, it’s just an opportunity for me and all of us to have cool conversations.

This is a space for those from all crafts, arts, and sciences, to come in together with their experiences, critical thinking, and ultimately themselves, and discuss ideas such as Mind, Langauge, perception, Neuroscience, Time, AI, Human Behaviour, medicine, genetics, psychotherapy, philosophy, and else.

A place where people from all over like video gamers, physicists, chiefs, therapists, computer scientists, comedians, physicians, filmmakers, and even magicians, come in with their perspectives.

If you want to win your opinion, this club is not for you. If you value being right more than learning, this club is not for you.

If you want to train yourself to holding contradictory ideas at the same time, and enjoy piecing things together, this is for you.

The absolute requirements:
Openness: this requires ability to develop and manipulate several perspectives, some of which can be contradictory, some are just different ways of looking at the same thing. To achieve this, it requires ability to accept and not agree the same time.

Respect: How else can a painter talk to a world famous brain surgeon without feeling intimidated? Assume everyone knows something that you don’t, otherwise why would you be here? :-)

Biography: especially if I don’t know you. A little background is nice.

Slogans: we are always wrong, we just become less wrong with time // Models are always wrong, but useful most of the time // “Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people” - Eleanor Roosevelt
Openness : There are multiple ways to look at a glass half-full.
Real name : Because we may end up liking you so much.
Respect : A rule as it allows you to expect it from others.
