John Bowie replied to Genevieve Jacobs's discussion Trans-Humans, Artellects, Robots, Nanobots, AI? in ARCHIVED—Currents of the Future
"Yes! I wonder as well what or where our technological drive will end. It seems that each successive step towards creating something more complex requires an equally long step towards destruction. It's interesting to imagine us clicking our way to…"

John Bowie replied to John Bowie's discussion Rites of Passage for Youth
"Hi Lisa,

I don't have any sons that participated (yet). However, next best thing, I AM a son that experienced Langskib! (Excalibur wasn't around yet). Without getting too much into my own story, I can say that my time at NWL, as a youth and as a…"

John Bowie replied to John Bowie's discussion Reset: A New Archetype? in ARCHIVED—Currents of the Future
"Erel, thank you for your reply, I learned a great deal in reading your response. First, the explanation of "a possibility of representation which is given a priori" offers much insight into my own biased pursuit of archetypes. I have been trying to…"

John Bowie replied to John Bowie's discussion Reset: A New Archetype? in ARCHIVED—Currents of the Future
"Actually, wondering if "extra lives" takes on the archetypal form of reincarnation? Not so much in the Christian sense of reincarnation being part of a continued narrative, but rather similar to samsara? While these are worlds apart, I am wondering…"

"Hi Lili, I got an B.S. in Biochemistry and with a minor in Philosophy, and I can say that Philosophy has been more informative to my development and process in Depth Psychology. However, I can say that at the time, the grinding business of the…"

John Bowie replied to Craig Chalquist, PhD's discussion Mythology in the Gulf?
"While I can't see a direct mythic correlate, there is a titanic awareness coming forth from those depths: our civilizations concept of invincibility. Watching the response, and the slow unfolding of cultural outrage skirts around an assumption of…"

"Hi Ginger! Nice to see you here. Thanks for opening up that dialog between cohorts. I hope my response was alright, I got laughing as I was writing paragraph 1, but I feel goods are in the later paragraphs. Have you gotten many replies?"

John Bowie replied to John Bowie's discussion Fundamentalism and Post-Modernism in ARCHIVED—Currents of the Future
"I wrote a paper bringing David Orr and Lacan into focus with one another. I takes that will to control vulnerability to another controversial level. Lemme know if you're interested in reading it...

John Bowie left a comment on Reading Room
