Part II: What Is Philosophy? Exploring Ideas with Gilles Deleuze

**What Is Philosophy? Exploring Ideas with Gilles Deleuze** What's the point of reading philosophers who turned out to be "wrong"? Is philosophy even about finding the truth — or is it doing something else entirely? In What Is Philosophy?, Gilles Deleuze argues that philosophy does not discover eternal truths. It ***creates concepts***. Philosophy isn’t about explaining the world — it’s about inventing new ways to *think* it. In this session, we'll explore some big questions that Deleuze wrestled with: What separates philosophy from science and art? Does a scientist discover an equation or invent one? And what invisible assumptions shape what we can even think in the first place? No prior reading required — just bring a question you've never been able to answer. P.S. This is a continuation of the discussion from 3/15/2026.
