Interactiv’ Samples:
Interactiv’ 1: from Use is a Short Self-Lit Fuse for Thomas Berry’s The Great Work The Rind Song The Viable Human, p.62 #6 The Earth is a kind of sacrificial offering. Interactiv’ 2 from A Biomass Continuity for John Grande’s Balance: Art and Nature Egos Die As Systems Cultural Break, p 18 These “egosystems” of expression can now be contrasted with an art whose vision is more subtle, but whose purpose and effect is longer lasting. The main premise of environmentally-based art is a profound respect for our ecosystem. Art can be a form of “experiential nutrition” for its audiences, and encourage us all to appreciate life more fully. Interactiv’ 3 from The Long Appreticeship to Freedom for Shunryu Suzuki’s Not Always So Be Do-istic Direct Experience of Reality, p.101 This strong conviction to realize your life is beyond “successful” or (-)“not successful.” Beyond any feeling of fear, you just do it. That is real practice and that is the way-seeking mind, which goes beyond the dualistic idea of good and bad, right or wrong. You just do it. Interactiv’ 4 from Posers Wresting Authority for Chellis Glendinning’s Off The Map Between Toes: Nest, Hive, Cave Empire as Map, Routes and Roads, p 17-20 They are to locate the most direct and practicable water communication across this continent for the purpose of commerce. They are to “fix” geographic positions by astronomical science. They are to research “the habits, locations, and vocabularies of the native inhabitants” and study the “soil and face of the country.” The instructions are suited not just for the fur trade we are told the explorers will accomplish. They are suited for wholesale imperialism.“We get displaced, we move, memory is lost….I can try to answer.” “Por favor.” He stands (:) straight up in the saddle and then settles back down into a comfortable posture for listening. “I met this woman from the Okanagan band in British Columbia. It was 1991, the year before 1992, you know, five hundred years, when Columbus came. She inspired me to find out who my people are.” “How did she do this?” “She told me she could never be a real friend if she didn’t know who I am.” Interactiv’ 5 It Roars To Itself Alone for Simone Forti’s Oh, Tongue Common Web Designs Soft Is Fast, p.50-51 Well, I don’t know. I hope East Virginia has mountains. Oh, it doesn’t matter. I mean, to me. Of course it matters. Tuscarora, I try a variation on pronunciation. I smell a different smell I’ve never smelled before. The words, my breath different, hair, flesh, feet. Can’t know. These words are so specific and out of my field of experience. Though I may be familiar with that grass and may even find some in the botanical garden, but no. one plant alone is not a bog plant and the garden holds no bog. Well, the brook, the mock brook with the real turtle, the turtle who watched us as we watched it so long, the brook may bear some grass of Parnassus. Interactiv’ 6 Market Teacher for Stephanie Mills’ In Service of the Wild The Endless Pulse of Undoings Woods, Woods, and Nothing but Woods, p.65 Only the late-breaking science of conservation biology has begun to articulate the consequence of extinctions of such wholesale land disturbance and deforestation. According to Edward O. Wilson: “Whenever careful studies are made of habitats before and after disturbance, extinctions almost always come to light. The corollary: the great majority of extinctions are never observed. Vast numbers of species are apparently vanishing before they can be discovered and named. Thus during that half-century in which the Leelanau forest floor was bared to light and summer heat and to the unbuffered impact of rain and wind, there was very likely a quantum loss in biological richness, creatures lost and gone forever, for we can never now all that was here in presettlement times. Botanizers and birders, naturalists and chroniclers of nature, seem to have been underrepresented among settlers in the Leelanau Peninsula. Interactiv’ 7 De-Signed Intelligence for David Abram’s The Spell of the Sensuous ||:To Speak Without Mouth:|| Philosophy on the Way to Ecology p.56-57-58 The brilliant forerunner of today’s “cognitive” and “symbolic” schools of anthropology, Le’vy Bruhl used the word “participation to characterize the animistic logic of indigenous, oral peoples—for whom ostensibly “inanimate” objects like stones or mountains are thought to be above, for whom certain names, spoken aloud, may be felt to influence at a distance the things or beings they name, for whom particular plants, particular animals, particular places and persons and powers may all be felt to participate in one another’s existence, influencing each other and being influenced in turn. The spectators’ eyes, already drawn by the coin’s fluid dance across the magician’s fingers, spontaneously fill in those gaps with impossible events, and it is this spontaneous involvement of the spectators’ own senses that enables the coin to vanish and reappear, or to pass through the magician’s hand. Interactiv’ 8 Golden Mean in Your Eye for Owen Waters’ The Shift Is Nature My Subconscious Mind? You Are Changing the World P. 89-90 It is also in communication with the universe as a whole. In particular, it is connected to the global, or collective unconscious, mind of humanity. The subconscious mind is, basically, the ultimate information source, one which is ready to provide information about anything upon demand. With kinesiology, the subjects’ conscious minds are bypassed in order to receive clear answers directly from their conscious minds. Interactiv’ 9 Value Added Life for Paul Hawken’s The Ecology of Commerce Futurism Recurs Paul Hawken, The Ecology of Commerce, The Size Thing p. 101-102 We are not shown the manufacturing facilities, the noise, the dirt. We do not see distribution centers that cover forty football fields, or the massive amount of waste that is generated and discarded. General Motors will exploit the image of small towns near the Kentucky Saturn plant, but not show us the ghettos of Flint, Michigan. Pepsico, the Corporate owner of Kentucky Fried Chicken, will show us a reunion under a chestnut tree where an extended family dips into buckets of the Colonel’s finest “original,” but we are not shown the mile-long conveyor belt of factory-produced chickens, pumped full of sulfonamides, and nitrofurans, being stunned, killed, scalded, defeathered, decapitated, bled, eviscerated, and dismembered at the rate of ninety a minute by low-paid workers who report high rates of repetitive-motion injuries Interactiv’ 10 Taking Turns Petals Open for David Korten’s When Corporations Rule the World Creates Couch Potatoes David C. Korten, When Corporations Rule the World, Buying out Democracy, P. 144 Established in 1972, the Roundtable was founded in the belief that business executives should take an increased role in the continuing debates about public policy. The Roundtable believes that the basic interest of business closely parallel the interests of the American people, who are directly involved as consumers, employees, investors and suppliers. Interactiv’ 11 Subsistence Nosedive for David Korten’s The Post Corporate World Lose Democracy Fast Track! David C. Korten, The Post-Corporate World Prologue p. 7 The timing of the book’s release coincided with a receptive moment, a turning point in public consciousness. Corporate excesses were becoming ever more obvious and a significant segment of the population was becoming fed up. A number of citizen groups were beginning to take on corporate power and the related issues of international corporate-rights treaties disguised as trade agreements. Though the corporate-controlled press took little note of these initiatives, a variety of books and articles began circulating, mainly from small and alternative presses, and conferences, teach-ins, and rallies were being held with support from union, religious, environmental, women’s, peace, consumer rights, and their citizen groups. In the United States the backlash... Interactiv’ 12 Harbinger days: The last Blip for David Korten’s The Great Work Nature Needs No Publisher The Opportunity p. 82-83 The computer communications revolution is transforming the very nature of news and opinion media through an unprecedented process of democratization. Public interest groups are rightly concerned that a handful of publicly traded corporations have monopolized conventional print, radio, and television media outlet to serve purely commercial interests Interactiv’ 13 The PSD Quandary for Harvey Jackins’ Fundamentals of Co-Counseling Manual Attention Repatterns The Rational Needs of Human Beings p 24 Check on the quality of hugging. Is it good? Some places in RC it deteriorates into unawa reness. The patterns take over.
