Listen on
Episode notes
Nathan Dufour is a writer, musician, video artist and activist. He produces music videos on YouTube about philosophical ideas. He teaches Latin language and Greek Civilization at City College of New York and has a PhD in Classics.
In this episode, we cover the relationship between music and philosophy, the performative aspect of art, the origins of philosophy and how it connects to music, classics, western civilization, and finally Plato and Whitehead, which was Nathan's PhD thesis. The latter both covers Whitehead's process philosophy in general, but also how it connects to Plato, and some of the modern implications of Whitehead's thought.
