How to Predict the Future: Conversation with K. D. Adamson
|
Our cultural values are shaped by their own historically evolved patterns. As a result, values are not simply given, but the result of the cultural heritage that has been passed on to us through previous generations.
What if we could change these patterns of interpretation? What if we could rearrange our values to create a better future? What steps would be necessary to do this? Our next boma studio should help the participants to understand their own interpretation patterns in a socio-economic context and to take a look into the future of humanity. Our experts on the subject are KD Adamson, writer and futurist with a focus on the dangers of global technologization, and Jeremy Lent, author of The Patterning Instinct and founder of the Liology Institute. |

Intercultural Roots: Arts for Social Change
|
A talk followed by Q&A and discussion on how a deep recognition of our interconnectedness can lay the path to full fractal flourishing.
Our dominant worldview tells us we’re split between mind and body, separate from each other, and at odds with the natural world. This worldview has passed its expiration date: it's based on a series of flawed assumptions that have been superseded by modern scientific findings. In this Masterclass, author Jeremy Lent will discuss how another worldview is possible—based on our deep interconnectedness with all of life. Showing how modern scientific knowledge echoes the ancient wisdom of earlier cultures, the presentation weaves together findings from modern systems thinking, evolutionary biology, and cognitive neuroscience with insights from Buddhism, Taoism, and Indigenous wisdom. |

A collective awareness of humanity's significant sustainability challenges is developing. How we respond to this across business and economy, as well as broader society will be key to the very essence of our existence. What do we move toward? What are the right steps? How did we get to where we are now?
Understanding the implications and possible answers to these questions and the 'Patterns of Meaning' within them will be important for the work ahead.
Please join us in our discussion with Jeremy Lent, a groundbreaking author who has looked under the surface of human society and culture to understand what moves and moulds the human systems we are part of. In addition to his work on an 'Ecological Civilization', we will be discussing his previous and forthcoming books and initiatives.

An Ecological Civilization: Vision and Practice
A series of four classes given by Jeremy
This course of four classes will review the concept of an ecological civilization from multiple perspectives. The first class will lay out a deep historical context, describing the impact of culture and values on history, and introducing the vision of an ecological civilization in contrast to our current society. The second class will explore the ontological and ethical parameters of an ecological civilization. The third class will delve into specifics of what an ecological civilization might look like in practice; and the final class will trace realistic pathways to a life-affirming future—and invite participants to explore their own engagement in laying the groundwork.
Each class will consist of presentations, full group discussion, and small group exercises:
