YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

I look at the mind-body duality and critique Descartes’ radical Cartesian Doubt in mediations, showing how the thinking individual mind separate from the body is a fallacy. I draw upon thinkers like Deleuze, Proust, and Antonio Damasio’s Descartes’ Error.
