Topic: Relating Psychedelics to Process Philosophy

Presenter(s): Peter Sjöstedt-Hughes

We host conversation with the author of his new book exploring the relation of psychedelics to metaphysics, panpsychism, and process thought more generally. He may also tell us about how that relates to the Exeter University Psychedelic Research Group. Dr Peter Sjöstedt-Hughes is an Anglo-Scandinavian philosopher of mind who specializes in the thought of Whitehead, Nietzsche, and Spinoza, and in fields pertaining to panpsychism and altered states of mind. Following his degree in Continental Philosophy at the University of Warwick, he became a Philosophy lecturer in London for six years after which he pursued his PhD at The University of Exeter – where he is now a research fellow and associate lecturer.
