The Sophia Lectures With Dr Iain McGilchrist - Lecture 2: Symmetry and Asymmetry
"Dr Iain McGilchrist delivers “Symmetry and Asymmetry,” the second lecture in his three-part series, Wholeness, Imagination, and the Cosmos. This compelling talk examines the generative power of asymmetry, challenging our deeply ingrained notions of balance, perfection, and creation. Drawing on physics, mathematics, biology, and art, Dr McGilchrist reveals how asymmetry drives life and meaning, taking us to the edge of chaos where the most fruitful conditions for existence arise.
Recorded in March 2024 as part of the Sophia Lectures at Ralston College’s Savannah campus, this annual series features leading thinkers engaging with the perennial questions of human existence." from the video introduction
