We have entered a fourth stage of innovationā the era of Big Bang Disruption. The new disrupters attack existing markets not just from the top, bottom, and sides but from all three at once. This isnāt disruptive innovation. Itās devastating innovation.
Paul Nunes has found that what matters is not just climbing your current S-curve, which is what you do to reach the top of a single successful business. Instead, he emphasises the equal importance of the moves you must make to your next business: making the jump to your future S-curve.

Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of relatively constant internal conditions in an organism. For example, we maintain an average body temperature of about 98.6Ā°F (37Ā°C). In a cold environment, we shiver to return to our ideal body temperature. We fan ourselves or find other means to restore homeostasis in a warm climate. This delicate balance within biological systems is the hotbed of existence.
It is a pleasure to welcome the author of The Hidden Spring: A Journey to the Source of Consciousness, Mark Solms. We share terms like Markov Blankets, The Free Energy Principle, Homeostasis, and Entropy.

In this episode, we will discuss questions such as where does arousal come from anatomically and how does it arise physiologically? And the central question of today is where the seemingly magical shift from automatic reflex to volitional feeling occurs. Today, we will share some terms like synaptic transmission, reuptake, post-synaptic modulation and the role of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, and we will also explain the role of the PAG, the periaqueductal grey.
In The Hidden Spring, our guest Mark Solms does not dive too deeply into Karl Fristonās mathematics. As you will discover, he summarises its implications, describing Fristonās free energy as a quantifiable measure of how a system models the world and how it behaves. This notion leads to a very different idea of consciousness from Descartesās reason-centric version that set up the puzzling dualism of āmindā and āmatterā, a la Damasio’s Descartes Error. Mark explores the ācortical fallacy,ā which refers to his view that neuroscientists who have argued that the āseat of consciousnessā is in the cortex are wrong. Recent neuroscience has shed light on where this is.
As Mark points out, damage to just two cubic millimetres of the upper brainstem will āobliterate all consciousness.ā
So where does it “Spring” from?
Part 1 of a 9-part series with the brilliant Mark Solms.How does the mind connect to the body?
Why does it feel like something to be us?
Our guest is one of the boldest thinkers in neuroscience and solving this puzzle has been a lifetime’s quest.
Now at last, the pioneer who discovered the brain mechanism for dreaming
appears to have made a breakthrough.

I was MC for the tech stage at the Fifteen seconds Festival in Graz, Austria. I had the pleasure of meeting the brilliant Phaedra Boinodiris. She is the author of the book āAI for the Rest of Usā, and is a co-founder of the Future World Alliance, a non-profit dedicated to curating K-12 education in AI ethics.
Hire For Neurosignature Train For Skill. In a changing workplace, rather than hiring solely based on skill, we might consider a candidate’s neurosignature. Each neurosignature brings unique strengths to the table. Hiring for neurosignature and training for skill might lead to higher workplace happiness, higher revenue and lower employee turnover.
