What is "Philosophy?"  The English word itself comes from the combination of two Ancient Greek words:  "philo" (love of...) and "sophia" (wisdom).  Simply put, philosophy is the love of wisdom.  Our group aims to promote greater knowledge of the self, and the world around us.  We meet regularly to discuss a wide range of topics and ideas - often based on a particular book or movie.  Open discussion and debate is encouraged; in an informal, friendly, tolerant environment.

This group is designed for all people who like to network socially in Brisbane.  Social Networking is an ideal environment to win friends and influence people in and around Brisbane.

I do not match make - I simply seat everyone at table of 8-10 people in their age g …

Being active in the Brisbane property scene for many years, I love to catch up regularly with fellow property investors and entrepreneurs to share and exchange ideas, news and views.

As George Bernard Shaw wrote "If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples, then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas then each of us wil …

The meetup was started by another organiser who recently dipped out, so now the inmates are running the asylum : ) We've opened the group up by a decade and to allow anyone who wants to organise something to do so (for the people, by the people!) So feel free to add anything you like any time -- just no outings to the football! I'll try to keep the meetups I organise restricted to the visual arts (including fashion and all forms of design), but feel free to add theatre, music and dance if you fe …

We are about one thing: enjoying live music in Brisbane. And that means mainly supporting local artists for small gigs, as opposed to touring artists doing large concerts. There really are so many options in Brisbane, so much good music to experience, and this is a place to meet other people who enjoy the whole music experience, which I believe is best shared. I (Gary) am currently on a little hiatus as I work on other life challenges, and as such am not scheduling or attending events.  Please f …
