  • #031 - Music & Language - Part 2 [Cosmic Dynamics]

    Can music avoid the need for these words that have become so… limiting in many ways. Can it expand our horizons across human processes and have some sort of a regenerative effect on human communications?

    We are preparing an experiment on this topic, involving musicians, words, and a tough communication challenge. If you want to participate or attend from online, please send us an email at [email protected] and we’ll tell you more about it, we’re working on the how right now and will mail the Cosmic community when we have a detailed program.

    In this soundtrack by @christianscottofficial you can hear the immense talent of flutist @ElenaPinderhughes, which I am symbolically connecting to this episode and to this 40 000 year-old bone flute crafted in mammoth ivory. Gourmet food for the right brain!

    • #030 - Music & Language - Part 1 [Cosmic Dynamics]

      Which one came first? Music or language? Any idea? And what does it say about the little situation we’re in right now, as humans?

      Art piece of the day: Logos, a remarkable album by French jazz trio Zylia.  They put forward a very sophisticated language, at a moment of human history where our relation to words and language has become so cynical...

      • Cosmic #53 - Escaping the Hall of Mirrors - w/ Camille Duran

        The left hemisphere of our brain is attempting to block our exit from its hall of mirrors. There seems to be 3 escape routes, which directly connect to our work at Cosmic and Season 3 of the show.

        This episode is introducing a fundamental concept that became a cornerstone of our work at Cosmic.

      • #029 - Undoing Social Art Space Contradiction [Cosmic Dynamics]

        In the art space, when a gallery or museum showcases

        work about #social or #environmental issues, there sometimes is an uncomfortable contradiction between the context and messages conveyed by the art pieces on display, and what the exhibition space emanates. Have you experienced that? Or is it just me…?

        @zerowasteexhibition seems to be taking steps in the right direction to align the experience of the exhibition with the messaging of the showing. Don’t miss if you’re around Leipzig this week!

      • #028 - The Structure of Your Mental World. [Cosmic Dynamics]

        Art piece of the day by Julie Cambell

        It’s quite disarming to realise that the way we experience life is mostly based on the structure of our mental world, and that the structure of our mental world affects our reality. Is it that obvious? Is this true? How so? And what does it mean for the stories we tell and the work we produce as artists and influencers of culture?

      • Cosmic #52 - Giving Yourself the Permission To Be Creative - w/ Jasmine Pradissitto

        “Imagination is more important than knowledge” 🧠(Einstein). It makes a nice quote on instagram but are we really considering this as a society?🤔

        With society and culture increasingly relying on the left brain, we are removing ourselves from our full capacities as a species. Artist & Physicist Jasmine Pradissitto @jasmine_pradissitto joined me on Cosmic Live to remind us how we can reclaim our creative selves and reconnect with the creative geniuses that we are at   5⃣  years of age. The real question is: are we giving ourselves the permission to be truly creative?

      • #027 - From Symbolic to Real [Cosmic Dynamics]

        Note: This is not Boris Johnson, this is Jacques Lacan. Both talk about symbols. At very different levels and with very different intentions though 🙃

        We are organising a workshop on theory of change and this tricky maneuver of moving from symbolic actions to establishing new societal “structures”, in the context of social and environmental movements.🍃♻ You can indicate your interest at [email protected]

        This episode features soundtracks by @sirwas & @neilcowleymusic 🎶🎵

      • Cosmic #51 - Changing Our Perception of Reality - w / Kira Bursky

        I interviewed Kira Bursky. We talked about our ability to change our perception of reality. Kira’s work is mind-blowing so I knew the interview would be very inspiring. It was Cosmic. Her openness to be vulnerable and share the personal stories behind her art makes it a very special episode. Beyond the podcast I also invite you to check out her films @allaroundartsy

        Enjoy!
