In these Sentientist Conversations we talk about the two most important questions: “what’s real?” & “what matters?”

I’ve had two fascinating discussions about Sentientism recently, one with the Future Design Podcast and the other on the “Ask A Philosopher” virtual spin out from an event usually held at Burning Man.
