Your Expectations May Be What Get You Upset. —Featuring Matthew Kahn and Theofilos Chaldezos

Posted by in categories: education, neuroscience, sustainability

As students of the Fresconean way of thinking, Theofilos Chaldezos breaks down Jacque Fresco’s lecture in this video on “Expectations, Predictability, and Subjective Behavior” with Matthew Kahn. These discussions could aid in the way of thinking that helps people live lives with less frustration, stress, and anxiety.

The Sociocyberneering Education Project is a project which Theofilos Chaldezos developed to build enhanced skills through education. The Sociocyberneering Education Project uses a systems approach to education to allow The Venus Project to experiment and develop courses that can be used internally and externally to educate volunteers and the general public. The course offered builds a solid knowledge base that would help individuals handle teaching, present the history and the aims and proposals, and manage change towards the direction proposed by The Venus Project.

The Venus Project proposes an alternative vision of what the future can be if we apply what we already know in order to achieve a sustainable new world civilization. It calls for a straightforward redesign of our culture in which the age-old inadequacies of war, poverty, hunger, debt, and unnecessary human suffering are viewed not only as avoidable but as totally unacceptable. Anything less will result in a continuation of the same catalog of problems inherent in today’s world.
