This doesn't exist.

My notes taken while I passively watched in the confort of my living room I share with three others in Colonia del Valle, sur. It is important to specify it is 'sur' because if not you can get confused and think it is the one next to the more trendier Roma and Condesa, no, mine doesn't have anything which trends, but that's the reason I love this neighbourhood and because it has proven mildly affordable and amicable in an otherwise hell which is Mexico City.

The lecture is by Markus Gabriel, the so-called 'genius child of continental philosophy' because of its productivity levels in such a field when you get to start putting your name outthere probably never.

It is titled 'The World Doesn't Exit' and I agree.

Markus Gabriel.
Why the world doesn't exist?
What existenz means - ontology is.
Being - confusing term
in contrast ontology with metaphysics
metaphysics - a theory of totality. A theory of absolutely everything.
you want these things to co-exist
the particular object O1
O1 exist - so you will look for an existing object
being and nothing as one and the same - science of logic - hegel
Existence is a proper property - no one believes that
to exist means to be part of the world
you go from an object to a field
the world is a field of possible experience - Kant
to be part of the world you have to say that the world doesn't exist
kant says - critique of pure reason - whatever appears into the world.
kant really believes that nothing exists - the most radical indian monk, as a nihilist.
schmixist - heidegger - i doesnt exist but it worlds
world - regulative idea - habermas. the round square.
the world doesn't exist it doesn't world it doesn't do anything.
Isn't that postmodernist?
It is not Kantianism
Thinking is not less real. Depending on how long they exist or whatever, that is not an ontological problem.
David Lynch is trying to transform the american flag into the french one.
to exist means to stand out
Pre-socratis created the world. Freud -  The oceanic feeling somehow ran amok. Then Parmenides said water is being.
There is no it. A mistake mostly by Parmenides. It is a contingent mistake.
