Hi NYC philosophers,

We're organizing another meetup for anyone interested in discussing philosophy and connecting with like-minded people in the city. Here's the plan:

🗓 When: Sunday, Aug 23, 1:30 PM

📍 Where: Work Café Santander, 85-87 N 6th St, Williamsburg

For this session, we'll be reading the chapter "The Concept of Enlightenment" from Dialectic of Enlightenment by Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer (read it here). Adorno and Horkheimer criticize dominant articulations of Enlightenment rationality, arguing that that mastery of nature as ascribed by much of Enlightenment thinking break down into old forms of barbarism.

Hi neighbors!

I am relatively new to playing and have worked with a teacher but lessons got moved online, and it’s not ideal for me. I also felt he moved a bit fast. I have an electric guitar and am into blues, pop, r&b, and folk, to name a few genres. Look forward to receiving recommendations!

For this session, we'll be diving into an excerpt (pages 10-28) from The Myth of Sisyphus by Albert Camus (read it here). In this classic philosophical text, Camus attempts to resolve the problem of suicide. Written near the outset of World War II, Camus felt it necessary and legitimate to wonder whether life has inherent meaning and, if not, how we can create it.
