Undisputed ideas feed on our indifference and fear of questioning. But not in this court. Ideas on Trial is designed to finally confront them. Join the Novel Philosophy Academy team to explore uncontested ideas in the culture taken for granted for so long, so we can expand our intellectual potential and claim ownership of our lives. Through the lens of philosophy, we examine those little ideas that feed most during our snoring-awakedness. Nope. Not the nap time. Snoring-awakedness is the state where you are fully awake, but your mind is unfocused and unpurposefully noisy. We talk about ethics, life, creativity, choice, culture, happiness, business trends. Chameleons. Whatever fits in our courtroom. Purple elephants? Fits. Hulk? Smash fit. Parasites? Maybe. We love ideas and we love how they affect our whole being. By understanding their meaning and watching their real-world consequences, we can claim the freedom to become the true undisputed champions of our own lives. But it’s not just about love. Ideas on Trial is driven by justice. We deserve to live by the ideas that promote that dormant potential that we all have in our lives. Snoring is cool and is experienced best the moment you get interrupted by a vacuum cleaner. Hit subscribe — Ouch, easy!! And bon voyage.

We use our approximate knowledge of many things to craft unanswerable questions. We mix cognitive science and philosophy with pop culture, tech and science to start with raw perspectives. Refining them through steamed up yet rational conversation we generally stumble upon odd answers. Hosted pseudo monthly by two humans.

We’ve been preparing this episode for quite a while and this time we have sources! We confront our knowledge of Japanese language and lacanian psychoanalysis to try and understand the Japanese psyche!

We start off by Lacan’s famous statements about the fact that Japanese people have no need for psychoanalysis. We’ll see what he was talking about through a brief history of the incredible chaotic mess that is the Japanese language. Did he know it well enough?

In any case, we felt it was worth widening the scope! From language, we move to the construction of identity in Japanese culture, but also to Buddhism and Sartre, to finish on the Japanese psychoanalytical concept of Amae.

Can we find anything here to cure the existential angst that comes from being an isolated lacking self? Or is this just inviting more problems?Introduction of the Japan Psychoanalytic Society
