Did you know that on January 28 there was a premiere of a play dedicated to the Hard problem of consciousness? And it is not in the back of the theater life, but in the heart of England, in London, at the National Theatre and the author has long been famous playwright Tom Stoppard.
“Hilary, a young psychology researcher at a brain-science institute, is nursing a private sorrow and a troubling question at work, where psychology and biology meet. If there is nothing but matter, what is consciousness?
This is ‘the hard problem’ which puts Hilary at odds with her colleagues who include her first mentor Spike, her boss Leo and the billionaire founder of the institute, Jerry.
Is the day coming when the computer and the fMRI scanner will answer all the questions psychology can ask?
Meanwhile Hilary needs a miracle, and she is prepared to pray for one”. Said on the oficial site of National Theater.
