We’re throwing another Discontinuities party at Luc and Carol’s place starting at 6:30 PM on June 14, 2025, by invitation only. You’ll receive a reminder of our address by email, and a coupon link for a free copy of the draft of Discontinuities.

RSVP and drop by any time from 18:00 onwards.

We’ll have a toast to the Discontinuities: Love, Art, Mind book being 80% complete (hopefully more by then). Several of the contributors to this edited book will be present. Yay! (I’m currently working on a chapter about music and emotion.)

You may bring an appetizer if you like (not at all mandatory). It’s BYOB. Parking is on the street of the townhouse complex (not inside the townhouse complex, unfortunately). Weather permitting, the party will also be outside.

Name tags will be provided on which you can scribble any topic you’d like to discuss — that can serve as a discussion prompt. For instance, if you put “strange loops” on your name tag, one might ask you “What’s a strange loop, and why does it matter?”

Musicians are invited to bring a tune and an instrument. We have a piano (which hopefully will be tuned by then).

FYI

Carol and I will be in Europe in May for a Discontinuities: Love, Art, Mind-themed trip. We’ll be attending concerts in Amsterdam, Prague, Vienna & Salzburg. This is a trip we had fully booked for April 2020, but had to be postponed for some reason we’d rather forget.
