A conversation worth waiting for with philosopher Cadell Last diving into themes he began developing in a published trialogue 'Sex, Masculinity and God' (2020). We wrestle with the confusion of contemporary landscape as men, delving into the disorientation of radical historical changes in life, sex, work and identity. We further the 'wrestling with christianity' conversation with Cadell's deep reading of the signficance of the cross for men around the initiatory dying into life. How can men’s death and resurrection resolve the culture war? What will christianity be in it’s 3rd millennium? What is the fundamental ‘negativity’ and dissolution at the heart of the feminine?

A freeform first dialogue I was inspired to hold with O.G Rose and Tim Kubik. Both are friend's and fellow travellers in the liminal web with a rich insight into where education has become broken and what educational futures we might imagine. We touch on: ~The relation of education and capital ~The historical dependence of leisure on exploitation ~The 'trivia' test mentality of modern education ~An education that allows genius misfits ~Zoom and educational entreprenuership O.G. Rose is the pen name of philosopher and writer duo Daniel and Michelle Garner. Daniel recently authored 'Belonging Again pt.1' as part of a larger project diagnosing the breakdown of belonging and the multi-layered decay of the meta-crisis. His work around philosophical community and regular online gatherings offer a new possibility for education beyond the academy. https://www.youtube.com/@O.G.Rose.Michelle.and.Daniel Educational facilitator and speaker, Dr. Tim Kubik has worked on a variety of initiatives designed to empower teachers and students to engage with their ever-changing world, including The Asia Society International Studies Schools Network, Buck Institute for Education, and now in partnership at Project ARC.

'The Spirit of the Climate Crisis' is the 3rd in an ongoing SENSESPACE climate series getting to the heart of the climate crisis. I’m joined by Brendan Kelly, Anne Keay & Matthew Green to explore the ‘Yin and Yang’ of climate change, an ancient Chinese model offering a path for balance with nature. We also explore collective healing and what it means to 'hospice' modernity as a way of being rather than 'save' it. Anne draws upon her experience in conscious communities to articulate the necessity of a love & heart centred consciousness in navigating climate crisis. -- Brendan Kelly has 20 years full-time experience practicing acupuncture and herbal medicine and currently practices at Jade Mountain Wellness, the clinic he founded in Burlinton, VT USA. He lectures and teaches at colleges, universities and conferences in the US and Europe on a wide variety of topics including Chinese medicine, western herbal medicine and ecological issues.

I recently read the Ayn Rand’s incredible magnum opus ‘Atlas Shrugged’ which inspired to organise a roundtable discussion. I joined Bethany Tabor in her reading group on the significance of the book and we were also joined by Daniel of O.G. Rose who was deeply struck by the text as a literary philosophy. First published in 1957, Atlas Shrugged is an unfolding story mixing mystery, romance and an exposition of the potential breakdown of American society. In our dialogue we explore how Atlas Shrugged offers a more important diagnosis of the slide into authoritarianism and decline than the more popular 1984. A work of fiction, Atlas Shrugged presents us a chillingly detailed map of how things fall apart and the breakdown in values and philosophy directly spreads through infrastructure. Bethany Tabor is a writer and public engagement specialist based in New Mexico. She is interested in cultural attitudes toward time, technology, innovation, and astrology. O.G.
