In episode #7 of the Connectomics podcast, Mark speaks with physicist, roboticist, cognitive scientist and artist, Prof Takashi Ikegami.
On the 17th and 18th of November, 2022, Takashi will exhibit the art-science installation Shell of Time, in Naha Cultural Center, Okinawa Japan, alongside the dancer and choreographer Un Yamada.
In this episode, they talk at length about this installation, and about the scientific and cultural context within which it was developed. They also talk about Takashi's background, about consciousness, about the contagion of mind, about consciousness machines and their role in our wider ecologies of life.
