JW manages to bring it all home and stick the landing.
"What binds these events is our increasing recognition that we are living two lives; an online life and an embodied life.

Our first community sensemaking call will be announced on Monday, so keep an eye on your inbox if you’re a paid subscriber. On Saturday 27 April, I’m co-facilitating a one day men’s retreat in London, more info here. The old stories warn us about enticing places. Hansel and Gretel walk hand in hand to the candy-covered cabin deep in the woods. A wanderer is lured by beautiful music to a fairy knoll.

Good overview of some new economic paradigms, along with a solid nod to the work of Kim Stanley Robinson.

"An organic wall that grows from the mutuality of self-developmental and multidimensional individuals engaged in extended alliances, big tents, and smaller high-trust networks. Creative teams working to promulgate individual depth, relational capacity, and a wisdom ethos — alongside new technological and social systems whose implicit values orient collective action toward distributed thriving for enhanced and sacred noo-biospheres..."
