Have you been searching for that extra spark of creativity, needing that breath fresh air - or are you feeling a bit more Chinese nowadays?

Regardless of the case, PHISOC and ADASOC invite you to step through the looking glass and into the surreal world of the White Rabbit Gallery. Wander through dreamlike installations, lose yourself in the textures of contemporary East Asian art, and discover how philosophy and design intertwine in the most unexpected ways.

🗓️ 7th November 2025 (Week 8 Friday)
🕑 2:00 PM
📍 White Rabbit Gallery, Chippendale

We hope to see you there!

Can anyone ethically hold billions while others struggle to survive? Is extreme wealth a sign of innovation and merit, or is it a sign of something more sinister? Do billionaires bear unique moral responsibilities, or is the very concept itself unethical?

These questions lie at the heart of our upcoming discussion. Join us as we examine the moral landscape of extreme wealth, exploring capitalism, justice, and whether billionaires can ever truly exist within an ethical framework.

AI is often called the next big thing. But how often do we stop to ask if it’s the right thing?

From self-driving cars to AI image generation, the possibilities for improving society seem endless. But are there ethical trade-offs we’re overlooking?

Join us for our very first Roundtable of Term 3 as we explore the philosophical questions shaping the future of artificial intelligence.

📅 19th September (Week 1 Friday)
⏰ 3-5pm
📍 Quad Room G053

Hope to see you there!

Ever found yourself reminiscing over a memory… then suddenly wondering who you’d be if that memory never existed? 🤯💭

Before spiraling into a full-blown quarter-life crisis 😵‍💫, come get some clarity at a philosophical roundtable hosted by PHI✦SOC and PSYCHSOC 🧠✨! We’ll be diving into the messy, beautiful role that memory plays in shaping who we are, and what it means for identity, selfhood, and the stories we tell ourselves 📖🌌.

📅 Friday 1st August Week 9!!!
🕒 3PM – 5PM
📍 Business School 114

Bring your thoughts, your questions, and maybe a memory or two 🫠. Hope to see you there!
