Alternative Talk- 1150AM KKNW

For all of you that haven’t noticed yet, your brain is wired as a filter, limiting our connection and experience of our Universe. But there’s hope that we can break away from these limitations. We’ll talk to Joseph Selbie, author of BREAK THROUGH THE LIMITS OF THE BRAIN and see if he can help us understand how to do some re-wiring of our circuits.

Hank Heals: A Novel of Miracles

Henry “Hank” Wilder, a divorced loner, is unsuccessfully trying to establish a new Zen center when he accidentally cures an ex-girlfriend’s recurring cancer with his touch and discovers—at least this is what people keep telling him—that he has healing powers.

Suddenly the empty zendo is overcrowded with Zen students who also want to be touched and healed by Hank. At first he resists, but when he cures a local Mexican boy of a bad limp, his reputation takes off. A TV story on Hank’s healings goes viral. The Latino community shows up, bearing food and icons of the Virgin of Guadalupe. Hank befriends a Catholic priest and falls in love again. When his life gets totally out of hand, he escapes to Mexico on a spiritual odyssey and finds out who he really is.

Episode 69: “Real Adulting Is Fun and Free”

Tawny and JDK tackle “adulting” in this episode! We so often talk about it in negative terms. But what if it was actually fun and free of old coping mechanisms that no longer serve us? What can we discover about it that keeps the fun we enjoy and the meaning we want?

While Robin Alexis recovers we present this edition of Mystic Radio originally recorded live back in January 2019.

Mercy's guest today is John Miller. Today, John shares the evolution of his remarkable career shaped by mentors and opportunities that emerged from his curiosity about the many artists and craftsmen he photographed. We talk about “Deer Camp” a personal and social project based in the lives of rural Vermonters. Motivated by empathy with the tools of photography and stories, John portrays his deep love of humanity.

John Miller first began his photographic career for Shelburne Museum in Vermont and has since been the project photographer for seven major exhibits funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. His photographs have been exhibited nationally and have been reviewed in the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, the Village Voice Literary Supplement, Publishers Weekly, the Journal of Visual Anthropology, the Vermont History Quarterly, Yankee Magazine, Vermont Public Radio and Vermont Public Television.

Miller received his MFA degree from the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, New York. He has taught documentary photography seminars at the University of Vermont and is a retired Professor of photography and digital imaging at Northern Vermont University. He has also been a visiting artist in elementary schools in northern Vermont and at the American Academy in Rome. Recent photographic exhibits include Human/Nature (a comparative photo-documentary about humans and land and architecture in both Italy and the United States) and the 2018 traveling exhibit Dialogue with Resonance: Recent Collage – Italy.
