At a point in our evolution when it seems as if we’re sleepwalking into a world where humans might be redundant, and much of what we do, can be done better and more efficiently by machines, what better time to celebrate our own flawed humanity.
And what better guide to lead is than Bill… to take us on a jaunt through the error-strewn, distracted, crumb-festooned, sometimes magnificent history of human thought, and how it might help us survive in this brave new world.
A magical, musical mystery tour of the human mind. Along with some other pressing matters about whales, biophilia, and unrequited love, and other thoughts
Amplified With Music, Welcome to Thoughtifier!
