About this Event
Trance: Philosophy Salon
What does it mean to be in a trance? Trance is commonly associated with hypnosis or being in an altered conscious state. But there is another way to think about it. Being in a trance is nothing special: right now, this second, most of us are in a trance. In this philosophy salon, we will talk about different kinds of trance states as they are understood in the scientific literature, and then focus on their broader correlate: the dreams one dreams when one is awake.
