Monkey Mind (EN)

What makes the human mind human? In this episode, your host Sophus Helle explains how he came up with the title for the podcast. In between anecdotes from the British tax system and philosophy on the significance of volcanoes, he entertainingly tells the story of a supernatural character Sun Wukong - or Monkey - who, through his energy and excitement, functions as a metaphor of the human mind, and a story of Homo Heidelbergensis which brings us back to the topic of volcanoes. Sophus's way of storytelling is a perfect reflection of what he describes as a monkey mind, drawing strings from one topic to the next, jumping around between different philosophies just like a monkey.
