Yes, Susan- there are some hard choices in life like what is more important my books or my art- moving back to the ICA Community, GreenRise Building and my monk's cell has made this a key issue in my life.

I still remember the 5 or 6 quotes we had framed—one was his. I kept them on my wall for years and years, and they are still in my storage room with all the other wall art I have no space for in a 2-BR condo whose wall space is pretty much devoted to books! What a choice to have to make—books or art! I also had to forego the framed Constitution and telegram from the President and so forth dating from TM 76. Ah well. I can’t take it with me.

HI, Susan!! Thanks.  A fine video intro!  “For Teilhard, evolution is an adventure in love.”  I never heard the term Technosapiens before, yet here I am, just finished a zoom book study, watching that video and now sending you love via email!

Animators: 3D Kitbashing - October 29

And with the proliferation of people and companies providing these 3D assets, often free or inexpensive, it is wonderful to have these sources at our fingertips 24 hours a day. Troy Benesch will show how he uses kitbashing for his personal projects and incorporates it into his workflow and share his favorite sources for these assets. RSVP and Panelist Bio here.

REDISCOVERING FIRE: The Evolution of Teilhard de Chardin,
produced by Mary and Frank Frost
It's time to introduce a new generation to Pierre Teilhard de Chardin – the paleontologist and visionary French Jesuit priest, whose relentless effort to reframe his beliefs in the light of evolution in the 20th Century led to a paradigm shift in the relationship of science and religion. He foresaw the evolutionary emergence of the internet, globalization, and today's trans-humanism movement, although he was perhaps overly optimistic in his vision. His legacy includes a strong environmental movement and fresh explorations in cosmic spirituality.
The Teilhard de Chardin Project consists of a documentary for public television with PBS partner Oregon Public Broadcasting and a robust web portal serving viewers intrigued by the transformative ideas that motivated Teilhard.
This film has completed principal photography and is seeking funding for post-production and distribution. Your contributions are gratefully received and are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. Your tax-deductible contribution may be made here.
The Monday Missive features WIFV's fiscally sponsored projects on a weekly basis. Make sure to learn more about what WIFV members are doing! For more info on the WIFV fiscally-sponsored projects, click here.
