The inaugural event in the series “Becoming Human – What Makes Us Who We Are?” inquires into the importance of biological components for human and cultural evolution. How do our sensory organs determine our experiences and behavior? Are our aesthetic judgments influenced by the biological structure of our sensory organs? What about the interplay with our social environment, our cultural imprint and socialization?
Panelists are the paleoanthropologist Miriam Haidle, the behavioral biologist Simone Pika, and the artist Jorinde Voigt.
Moderator: Lisa Ruhfus.
In cooperation with Union der deutschen Akademien der Wissenschaften. Media partnership: taz, die tageszeitung.
