DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>GROUP DESCRIPTION</strong></p>\n<p>Despite the modern obsession to control\, chaos is everywhere around us. From wildfires to floods to never-ending wars: rationalism failed so drastically that it wouldn&rsquo\;t be a bad idea to start thinking upside down\, namely that chaos&mdash\;and not logos&mdash\;is the actual Big Boss who can never be controlled. Instead of trying to control\, we would be better off to figure out how to attune to chaos\, and how to use its vast creative force to change the world.</p>\n<p>Chaos Research Group is a fabulative\, post-disciplinary research hub\, taking as its starting point the&nbsp\;primacy of chaos in the most ancient cosmologies. On top of that\, ever since Nietzsche\, chaos&mdash\;and not logos&mdash\;is of growing interest in contemporary philosophy. On top of that\, chaos theory in physics is nowadays applied in various disciplines\, not only in the natural sciences but throughout the humanities. What else?</p>\n<p>We take these disciplines as mere materials to be used\, compared and played with in a fantafuturistic&nbsp\;setting where the distinction into academic disciplines has become obsolete. Moreover\, there is no longer a difference between scientific research and artistic creation: in a world ruled by chaos\, everything goes.<strong></strong><strong><br><br>GROUP MATERIALS</strong></p>\n<p>Readings/lectures/artworks/films\, and so forth\, are proposed by the members of the group.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Due to the vastness of the field\, potential topics may include:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Comparative mythology</li>\n<li>New Materialisms</li>\n<li>Non-Philosophy</li>\n<li>Deep Ecology</li>\n<li>Anarchism</li>\n<li>Self-organizing systems</li>\n<li>Cybernetics</li>\n<li>Chaos Theory</li>\n<li>Psychedelics</li>\n<li>Chaos Magick</li>\n<li>Madness</li>\n<li>Mysticism</li>\n<li>&hellip\;<strong></strong><strong></strong><strong><br></strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p><strong></strong><strong>REGISTRATION<br></strong><br>Feel free to register to join the group at any time.&nbsp\;We meet every other Sunday at 11am Eastern US time:</p>
