The conference follows eight very old stories, which many people already know, and each time sets them beside our life today. One question links them: what in us cannot be read, copied or possessed?
Talks around the book and the question that runs through it: who are we, beyond our brain?
At a time when artificial intelligence and neurotechnologies claim to read and influence even our thoughts, what remains uniquely human? A talk of about an hour, with a video presentation commented live, to tell the intellect from the spirit.
The audience talks with the author at the end. The book is presented after the meeting.
The conference is currently given in French. Next dates: to be announced.
