Frontiers of Knowledge: Consciousness in the Living World
A full day symposium
Sunday, August 23rd
9 am to 5 pm
Wheeler Opera House, Aspen, Colorado
Join engaging with internationally-acclaimed scientists and scholars sharing and debating the implications of discoveries in cosmology, the origin of life, neuroscience, quantum physics, altered states of consciousness.
Join in a mind-expanding day of conversation with world-renowned scientists, philosophers, and authors.
The 2026 leading-edge speaker series reawakens the understanding that consciousness has many forms and occurs throughout the living world. We will explore how human consciousness developed in deep interaction with the natural world, walk through changing perceptions of animal experience, and consider how our newest intelligence, a human creation, is ours to direct and nurture.
How might we think about life in this expanded universe? What does it mean to be human in the cosmos at this time?
