Divination lecture.
Kudos to Zebranky (playing Corbin Veddell) for a fun lecture about divination at the Arcane Tower. People came and went, but overall it was interesting and fun.
Re: Divination lecture.
It was great! Thanks again to Zebranky for taking Jacob's slot when I wasn't sure if I'd be able to have a proper lecture due to IRL. Thanks also to everyone who showed up.
Re: Divination lecture.
It was great fun (esp. with all the chaos of the comings and goings) and I thought that Corbin kept the lecture from descending into chaos brilliantly. The discourse on truth was very interesting; certainly gave Perinauldo much to consider. I'm just sorry I crashed out at the end.
Looking forward to the next one!

Hoping for more of the truth discussion when we do one on illusion! 

Re: Divination lecture.
Glad people liked it! I was wondering if anyone would catch that the discussion of truth was really a sneaky introduction to information theory and binary search. That was my original inspiration for the lecture -- I love the idea of teaching serious modern concepts in a fun, accessible way that makes IC sense.
Kudos back to JediZero for all of Jacob's lectures I've attended. Corbin and I picked up a lot of techniques for structuring a lecture and wrangling the inevitable chaos from those. Sounds like I have to come up with some more topics!

Re: Divination lecture.
It's fun to talk about. I caught that, and was trying to steer it more toward metaphysics in philosophy. Conversations for another time!
Re: Divination lecture.
I wish I hadn't crashed out! Going to have to get Perinauldo enrolled into the Tower and onto the lecture rota ASAP.
