  • 24. Conclusion; Our complicated relationship with death
    2024/10/26

    In this final episode of the series, many of the ideas explored come together somewhat synergistically, to offer something of a moment of clarity. When I started recording these explorations of my own ideas I thought it would be a simple re-treading of my own well-explored philosophical musings, but this final day of driving and recording offered me a new way of combining these thoughts and a reinvigorated approach to my thoughts and my work.

    I don't know if any of these recordings will mean much to anybody, but the process of exploring them sequentially, and this final moment of clarity, has been particularly cathartic for me. Thank you for coming along for the journey!

  • 19. Sexual dimorphism and parenting
    2024/10/25

    Sexual dimorphism is the condition where sexes of the same species exhibit different morphological characteristics. They don't always present as directly related to reproduction but often influence reproductive selection or behaviour in some way. What might the differences between the sexes teach us about ourselves?
