Taking us on a trip which stops at different definitions of Event, ¿i¿ek addresses fundamental questions such as: are all things connected? How much are we agents of our own fates? Which conditions must be met for us to perceive something as really existing? In a world that''s constantly changing, is anything new really happening?
