The Monsanto Act

Daniel Pinchbeck — Fri, 29 Mar 2013 12:58:02 -0700

Congress passed a bill last week that included a provision which "protects genetically modified seeds from litigation in the face of health risks." This provision is now called the "Monsanto Act." This provision was snuck into an "emergency" bill (it's always an emergency, isn't it?) which prevented the shutdown of the government, and many of those who voted for it may not have actually read it.

The following article presents notes from a speech delivered on Saturday, November 3, at the TedX at the La Calaca Festival in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.

Last week I was in New York City, my home, for Hurricane Sandy. At 7 pm that night, I walked to my corner and saw the floodwaters rising toward my block. I hurried home, grabbed a few things, and set out for a friend's house on higher ground. As I was hurrying away, I heard muffled explosions and saw eerie lights in the sky. It was the Con Edison plant blowing up.

What Do I Want to Learn Today?

Daniel Pinchbeck — Thu, 14 Jun 2012 05:22:30 -0700

We find ourselves at a time when the social, political, and economic structures that hold our world together are trembling and, in some cases, crumbling. We are impelled to develop a new way of thought and a new mythology that encompasses this strange new world that surrounds us. For some of us, this meant collaborating to create an alternative media and now an educational system that reveals previously hidden aspects of our world.

Answer to Henry Baum

Daniel Pinchbeck — Tue, 13 Mar 2012 04:24:29 -0700

Henry Baum writes:

"Until you offer some practical ideas about how the transition will work, much of this is an intellectual exercise. Invigorating, thought-provoking, but of limited utilitarian value to the 6 billion other people who don't have the time, resources, or inclination to consider these ideas. Beyond "time for change," it's also time to be pragmatic, or these ideas are only going to appeal to a New Age minority. These ideas are transformative and inspiring, but that's only half the equation."

Business Shamanism

Using the tools of corporations to reprogram global society and distribute a new cultural operating system

Now that the Evolver network and brand have established themselves to a certain extent, I want to look ahead to developments I hope to see in the near future, with this organization and other initiatives. For the next phase of development, I propose the term "business shamanism." "Corporate alchemy" would be a viable alternative.

Over the last few months, I've been working on the release strategy for 2012 Time for Change, our documentary, with director Joao Amorim, producer Giancarlo Canavesio and the staff at Mangusta Films. This has been a great learning process for us, and it is still underway. The transformation of media that began with the launch of 'Web2.0' a number of years ago has continued, and is accelerating. At the same time, the old mechanisms for distributing and marketing independent films have broken down.
