Philosophy Defined

This was sparked by a conversation with Tricia, related to a new classroom management strategy she is introducing to her students this week. We were grasping for language to take the sting, the fear, out of abstract concepts.

So many people seem to tense up — like deer in the headlights — when "philosophy" is mentioned, as if the word implies an insurmountable, intractable, obstacle. But it's not. Philosophy is fun. And necessary for exploring possible outcomes.

Are you ready?

Philosophy is logic applied to imagination.

Simple, eh?

  • I won't denigrate assembly lines — they build instruments for the masses. I don't. This is something very different.

    If your music is art, if your vision is unique, I will shape the wood, bend the metal, solder the connections to give you the tool to let your beast run wild.
