My Galaxy while engaging in the

Activating Cosmogenetic Experience (ACE) Course

with Brian Swimme

by Sheryl Morris

I was also continuing my participation with the ongoing webinar, Syntropy with the people of The Institute of Educational Studies, TIES. This particular homework piece came from the 3/7/26 conversation/dialogue on observation. We reflected on what we see when we look into the night sky. Do we see the stars as Newton saw them, instantaneously? Do we see the stars as Einstein saw them, as light from the past? Or how Quantum Theory sees the stars, as undetermined in perhaps two places at once? And, what possibly is the impact of the observer on the observed? I shared my new knowledge of The Powers of the Universe and wondered aloud if each is indeed a syntropic force.

The assignment was to draw a picture of our own unique star, placed in amongst stars representing significant births and passings in our life, energy sources, nature sources. We were asked to try to visualize this mind map in more than our limited two dimensions. “We have a story inside,” we were told and this was meant to help us find meaning in the universe. I love how similar this is to Brian Swimme’s initial invitation before beginning ACE, “Make a list of those events in your life that made you who you are today.”

I recently became interested in “concrete poetry” and a site called “Concrete Formalism” which is reflected in the tight line- spacing. If you squint at the image I hope you “see” space-time foam!
