Aim:
The workshop will focus on the possible role of the endo-physical paradigm in the future development of physics and in our understanding of Nature as a whole. The main topics to be discussed are the nature of time, quantum theory and the concept of subjectivity, where the radical shift from the exo- to endo-principles is most likely to occur first. More particular topics comprise the puzzling discrepancy between the physical and psychological aspects of time, psychopathology of time, quantum entanglement, separability and non-locality, the status of first-person perspective and the prospect of naturalization of subjectivity, to mention a few. An in-depth interdisciplinary dialogue along these strongly interconnected issues is likely to have a profound impact on the development of natural science and philosophy.
