I think Westworld naming the next episode "The Well-Tempered Clavier" could, somehow, lead to a resurgence in interest in GEB -- lots of people on /r/westworld seem to be interested, for sure! (For one, I've heard that the show's creators have admitted that they are creatively indebted to the book in some ways.)
- jyriand 10y agoI think it might have something to do with the structure of the fugue. > a contrapuntal composition in which a short melody or phrase (the subject) is introduced by one part and successively taken up by others and developed by interweaving the parts.
- ThomPete 10y agoWestworld also did some interesting hints to "The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind" by Julian Jaynes a book that if you haven't read it yet you should. It's up there with GEB.
