Such an approach to “Radical Breakthroughs” is core CTT - in fact, I attempted this as part of the very first CTT series in 1999/2000
“How do Breakthroughs Change Science” - with evolutionary biologist Francisco Ayala; philosopher and neuroscientist Patricia Smith Churchland; author/astronomer Timothy Ferris; child psychologist Rochel Gelman; and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson - https://www.closertotruth.com/roundtables/how-do-
breakthroughs-change-science
"What are the Big Questions of Science?” - with evolutionary biologist Francisco Ayala; philosopher and neuroscientist Patricia Smith Churchland; author/astronomer Timothy Ferris; theoretical physicist Steve Koonin; and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson - https://www.closertotruth.com/roundtables/what-are-the-big- questions-science
Though the production values of these early shows are much lower than our current version (since 2008), the content and contributors suggest how CTT can do a big new series - a full season of 13 episodes - on “Radical Breakthroughs”.
Appreciate specific direction, so that when we meet, I can be prepared
Love to do something big and dramatic together.

Just arrived in Beijing for the “The Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation” (commentating), the
second most important event of 2017 in China (after the upcoming Party Congress), but Western media not paying much attention, what with All-Things-Trump.

hope things are well. . when are you back. . I would love to do something with you , but sleep is not going to be it.. Ihave read quite alot and frankly , the subject is fascinating but i see no real insights. just more questions and mostly the same ones that have been asked for years. . yes, its role in many processes are now becoming apparent. but I see no theories that can hold their own ( yet ).
