Ideas about Intersubjectivity.

  • A book where end product. Not about team collaboration; close collaborations that end up being.
  • We are meant to be thinking together; in reading, we're in dialogue with older thinkers.
  • Mythology of individualism and genius.
  • In fighting individuality, people go straight to "scene" (scenius). They ignore mentor/mentee and apprenticeships.
  • Science often has this.
  • Wouldn't this be interesting if we focused on individual relationships.
  • Ch 2: Why are we working against our biological ideals (either by the individual genius or group think).
  • Biologically stressed by being alone.
  • Evolutionarily, small-ish groups. Ontogeny: our selves arise connected.
  • Only after separation can we have an individual self, and this self results in an alienation
  • Chronic social depletion at protein level? Inflammation. Chronic rejection.

Later stuff (more fun)

  • How does connection work?
  • Physiology and heartrate
  • Creativity could be amplified
  • Goes far beyond romance
  • Lost rich relationships (Platonic relationships; Rilke)
  • Writers' relationships

Other connections

  • Sleeping alone
  • Shame and execution hypothesis: See Shame
  • Apprenticeship (Graeber; Germany)
    • Industrialisation destroying worker knowledge
    • Mastery and mastery relationship
    • Having children
  • Religions as long look at meaning and purpose

Notes

  • Rick & Morty: World is infinite, but you are finite
  • Boys: do not think of themselves as individuals
  • Self-organizing hierarchies within the ii
  • Jung/Watts: Humour. Laughing at the extinction events.
  • Tao Te Ching/Chuang-tzu reading or salon.
