The Principles are absolutely terrific, Jennifer! I like how well thought-out and clear they are, and that there is a “building” motion to them, i.e., from discernment to evaluation to purpose, and from experience to understanding to participation. I think all the topics are compelling, and alas, don’t think my experience as an educator is enoug…[Read more]

Dear Brandon, Laura, Davidson, and Jennifer,
I think this is one of the most important issues facing us today, as educating children about diverse creation stories has deep ameliorative ramifications for the future.
Your curriculum sounds fantastic, Brandon! I love the name “Big Spiral History,” and the way it conveys a non-linear concept tha…[Read more]

This is wonderful! I love how Jeff Boxell connects the universe story with story-telling, art, and spirituality. It’s delightful to hear Jennifer Morgan’s enchanting “Born With A Bang” read aloud. Wearing a cosmic NASA cape, Jeff whimsily sparks connections between nature, art, and religion!

Thanks for posting this worthwhile article. I love the way you connect awe with experiencing the universe as the primary source of awe, and as a foundational context for education, Jennifer. I agree with you whole-heartedly!

Wow, that is so exciting, Jennifer! How extraordinary to have such a meeting of the minds able to perceive and articulate the world scientifically & spiritually (or meta-scientifically) in complementarity. It’s an especially thought-provoking comment, especially as humans (not the universe) invented religion. May luck and work align to bring the…[Read more]

Thanks Imogene! Yes and Yes! We’re having great fun aligning many different people around the Emergent Universe Oratorio and will organize other programs. It’s a huge project — choir, instrumentalists and much more. Paula Guanaccia, Sam’s wife, is an extraordinary “producer.” And re Freeman’s comments . . . what a privilege to hear his…[Read more]

Great comments, Carol! I love your idea that the fusion of art and science may shape future consciousness.
I’ve been thinking more about this presentation/video and the direct connection, Rich, that you make between the ability of humans to dream and envision with electromagnetism from the Big Bang. (Am I understanding this correctly?) I h…[Read more]

“Shakespeare in the Cave” is brilliant, thought-provoking, connective, and inspiring. What an incredibly multivalent presentation! I’m especially moved by how you synthesize macro issues, Rich, and how you facilitate the viewers’ own transformative and/or insightful experiences, versus simply communicate information from your brain to ours. F…[Read more]
