What Is Truth?
This program is meant to pose the question “What Is Truth?” for the purpose of considering what it means in our time. It does not put forth a particular answer to the question, but does present the concept that we live in a “post-truth” culture. As a result we are pleased to present this multimedia concert in hopes that those who attend will consider the question more deeply, and ultimately, that it will contribute towards a positive and productive way to communicate with others. Our goals are: 1) to promote deep thought on the nature of truth; 2) to examine how one’s current beliefs about truth are/are not accurate; and 3) to recognize how current beliefs about truth comport with the reality of the world around us.
If you would like to present this live program for your school, organization, or event, please email Mike Hall. This music video presentation is not only suitable for university music schools and conferences, but is especially fitting for areas that deal with issues of ethics (law, medicine, philosophy, etc.).
