SUMMARY:Neal Stephenson: Fall\, or Dodge in Hell
DESCRIPTION:Bookshop Santa Cruz is thrilled to welcome bestselling author Neal Stephenson for a reading and signing of his highly-anticipated new book\, Fall\, or Dodge in Hell. This offsite and ticketed event will take place at the Santa Cruz County Veterans Memorial Building\, 846 Front Street\, Santa Cruz. Cosponsored by The Humanities Institute at UC Santa Cruz. Tickets for this event are available through Brown Paper Tickets. \nTwo ticket packages are available: \nGeneral Admission Ticket + 1 Book ($39) = Admission for one person plus one copy of the book\nDouble Admission Ticket + 1 Book ($46) = Admission for two people plus one copy of the book. \n \nThe #1 New York Times bestselling author of Snowcrash\, Seveneves\, Anathem\, Reamde\, and Cryptonomicon returns with a wildly inventive and entertaining science fiction thriller—Paradise Lost by way of Philip K. Dick—that unfolds in the near future\, in parallel worlds. \nIn his youth\, Richard “Dodge” Forthrast founded Corporation 9592\, a gaming company that made him a multibillionarie. Now in his middle years\, Dodge appreciates his comfortable\, unencumbered life\, managing his myriad business interests\, and spending time with beloved niece Zula and her young daughter\, Sophia. \nOne beautiful autumn day\, while he undergoes a routine medical procedure\, something goes irrevocably wrong. Dodge is pronounced brain dead and put on life support\, leaving his stunned family and close friends with difficult decisions. Long ago\, when a much younger Dodge drew up his will\, he directed that his body be given to a cryonics company now owned by enigmatic tech entrepreneur Elmo Shepherd. Legally bound to follow the directive despite their misgivings\, Dodge’s family has his brain scanned and its data structures uploaded and stored in the cloud\, until it can eventually be revived. \nIn the coming years\, technology allows Dodge’s brain to be turned back on. It is an achievement that is nothing less than the disruption of death itself. An eternal afterlife—the Bitworld—is created\, in which humans continue to exist as digital souls. \nBut this brave new immortal world is not the Utopia it might first seem… \nFall\, or Dodge in Hell is pure\, unadulterated fun: a grand drama of analog and digital\, man and machine\, angels and demons\, gods and followers\, the finite and the eternal. In this exhilarating epic\, Neal Stephenson raises profound existential questions and touches on the revolutionary breakthroughs that are transforming our future. Combining the technological\, philosophical\, and spiritual in one grand myth\, he delivers a mind-blowing speculative literary saga for the modern age. \nNeal Stephenson is the bestselling author of the novels Reamde\, Anathem\, The System of the World\, The Confusion\, Quicksilver\, Cryptonomicon\, The Diamond Age\, Snow Crash\, and Zodiac\, and the groundbreaking nonfiction work In the Beginning…Was the Command Line. He lives in Seattle\, Washington.

SUMMARY:Graduate Friday Forum with Aaron Franklin
DESCRIPTION:Transcendental Sentimentalism – An Introduction \nBroadly construed\, moral sentimentalism is the position that human emotions or sentiments play a crucial role in our best normative or descriptive accounts of moral value or judgements thereof. With this presentation\, Aaron introduces and sketches a defense of a novel form of more sentimentalism he calls “Transcendental Sentimentalism.” According to transcendental sentimentalism\, being in an emotional state about an object is a necessary condition of the possibility of a subject counting as having non-inferential evaluative knowledge about that object. In unpacking each component of this position\, he argues that it is both distinct from and more explanatorily attractive than the other approaches to explaining the relationship between emotion and moral thought. \nAaron Franklin is a PhD candidate in philosophy. His research concerns the metaphysics of norms and the relationship between emotion and evaluative thought. In addition to writing his dissertation\, Aaron works with the Center for Public Philosophy on a project examining the role that motivated reasoning plays in our public discourse. \nFriday Forum is a weekly interdisciplinary colloquium series for sharing graduate research across the humanities. Join us for light refreshments and weekly presentations by your fellow graduate students. For questions\, email fridayforum.ucsc@gmail.com. \nFriday Forum is supported by the Graduate Student Association\, the Humanities Institute\, and the following departments: HAVC\, Literature\, History of Consciousness\, Psychology\, and Education
