SA Pal and Dreamflesh guru Gyrus has just uploaded an excellent talk he recently gave at London's October Gallery. Based on his new bookette, <em><a href="http://dreamflesh.com/projects/war-noble-savage/" target="_blank">War &amp; the Noble Savage</a></em>, the presentation queries currently prevalent ideas about violence amongst 'uncivilised' peoples, as espoused by Stephen Pinker and Lawrence H. Keeley. Along the way Gyrus questions contemporary notions about society, progress and what it means to be us.

The presentation is available as both an <a href="http://dreamflesh.com/audio/2009-10-27-war-noble-savage-gyrus.mp3" target="_blank">MP3</a> and an audio <a href="http://dreamflesh.com/projects/war-noble-savage/#slidecast" target="_blank">slidescast</a>, for the fully immersive experience!
