An excerpt from my interview with insight guide and founder of Alderlore Insight Center, a non-profit educational organization focusing on post-formal education. Bonnie is the ring leader of the Pop-Up School.

A sweeping interview with Jonathan Rowson. Jonathan is co-founder and Director of Perspectiva and author of the Joyous Struggle on Substack.

Jeremy Johnson is an author (Seeing Through the World: Jean Gebser and Integral Consciousness), publisher (Integral Imprint), managing editor (Integral Leadership Review), podcaster (Mutations) and integral philosopher.

Another film from the Jeremy Johnson interview. Jeremy is an author, publisher (Integral Imprint), managing editor (Integral Leadership Review), podcaster (Mutations) and integral philosopher.

Joanna Macy is an environmental activist, author, and scholar of Buddhism, general systems theory, and deep ecology. She discusses the Great Turning in this short film.

Another great short with Bonnitta Roy. Bonnie is a pioneer in post-formal education teaching insight practices for individuals who are developing meta-cognitive skills.

Bonnie is back. In this film she goes into deep nuances on what wisdom is and how we can cultivate it in our lives.

I spent two weeks crash learning how to rudimentarily make an AI film -- using AI to "increase the potential for the good" (thanks Bonnitta Roy for that phrase). Everything in the video (except for the script which I wrote) is AI generated...which still entirely requires creativity and imagination on behalf of the creator.

Jeremy Johnson is an author (Seeing Through the World: Jean Gebser and Integral Consciousness), publisher (Integral Imprint), managing editor (Integral Leadership Review), podcaster (Mutations) and integral philosopher. Jeremy’s substack.

Another film from the Bonnitta Roy interview.

A full length interview with Dougald Hine: who is a social thinker, writer, speaker and the co-founder of the Dark Mountain Project and a school called HOME. His latest book is At Work in the Ruins(2023) and he publishes new essays on his Substack, Writing Home.

A full length interview with the eloquent Nigerian born trickster Báyò Akólomáfe. Báyò is a philosopher, (recovered) psychologist, professor, and poet. He is a teacher and public intellectual renowned for his unconventional views on global crises, activism, and social change.

I think one of the key journeys that we’re in the middle of is to reimagine ourselves as not just beings, but becomings.
