Now that you’ve found the others what are you going to do?

Jonathan Rowson

Part 1: Introduction and field-creation. Philosophical and strategic reflections on Emerge.

The Sacredness of Rituals

Kristina Dryza

The purpose of ritual is to invite the presence of the sacred into our lives and to dwell with it - even if only occasionally.

Sustainability in Swiss Agriculture: Sacred Swiss Cow

Scott Haas

Reflections on inspirational regenerative agriculture projects ranging from integrative community harvest crews to 'Adopting an Alp' schemes to converting cow flop into energy.

Why I am Choosing to Serve America's Last Wild Buffalo

Zhiwa Woodbury

Zhiwa shares his journey from climate lawyer to ecopsychologist to buffalo campaigner. Buffalos are a climate keystone species and have the potential to lead us out of the gathering climate storms we have brought upon ourselves and to heal our collective biospheric trauma. Buffalo can help us draw down carbon from the atmosphere in amounts that really matter.

The Rhythmic Cadence of Life

Kristina Dryza

On all levels, long and protracted arrhythmic conditions are life-destructive. Rhythm, in all its various manifestations, is one of the most healing forces on the planet. When we center ourselves in nature’s rhythms, we’re afforded some immunity from the incessant, unsolicited noise and friction that presses upon us from the outside world.

Activism, the Very Idea...

Anthea Lawson and Rupert Read

Is the concept of activism itself a key block to mass action on climate? Anthea Lawson and Rupert Read discuss entanglement, moderate flanks, the gap between caring and action, activism's shadows and how to make activism more inclusive.

Rethinking work and creative practice in times of socio-ecological crisis

Carmen Salas

We need more art projects, cultural practices and narratives that help cultivate sustainability, relationship-building and dialogue. Practices that are not only sustainable and ethical, but that also nurture human values such as collaboration, active participation, empathy and care.

Education as the Fulcrum of Civilizational Transition

The philosopher of education Zak Stein in conversation with Elizabeth Debold.

“If we are to heal divisions we need to find ways of better responding to the threat and loss that so many people feel at the very same time that others feel empowered."

Robert Kegan is a psychologist and one of the pioneers of developmental psychology. His stage model of the evolution of consciousness is widely used and talked about today.

Changing Our Self-Perception as a Compassionate Deed for the World

Kristina Dryza

Many of us fail to develop a gentle rapport with ourselves. Too often we’re a tiger to our own gazelle. In this we can become a danger to ourselves, forgetting that together we are all on the same team: the team of humanity.

"We're in a major world-historical moment of transformation, in which the old world is passing away, and the new world hasn't emerged yet."

Zak Stein is a writer, educator and futurist, who emphasises the importance of education in our time between worlds. Zak is also a co-founder of the Consilience Project.

Web 3: A Crisis of Sensemaking

Rufus Pollock and Theo Cox

Web3 is becoming a huge phenomenon, but can be hard to make sense of. To address this sensemaking gap, Life Itself is launching a new collaborative initiative “Making Sense of Web3” with a focus on the social and economic mechanisms driving web3 and its potential impact.

Bombs and Bildung: Ukraine as the Educational Centre of the World

Jonathan Rowson

The critical question today is what 21st-century Bildung looks like in a world of war, ecocide and disinformation. Democracy depends on solidarity and both depend on good collective sense-making and decision-making, which in turn depend on a free press and ultimately on a healthy education system.

The Return of the Age of War, Or: Has the Meta Been Grounded?

Anna Katharina Schaffner

Emerge Digest March 2022. A new monthly series reflecting on what has been emerging.

Putin, Ukraine, and 1945: The War Never Ended

Bayo Akomolafe

The campaign for Ukraine is also an infection, an epidemiological moment, a political tentacle of a virus that exceeds the biological. A spiritual inflection.

Where the Meta Hits the Ground

Indra Adnan

We live within structures that were imagined before they were built. No matter how grim things may look, humans are the animals that can refresh our experience, by redefining our take on reality.

Re-Enlivening Relationship in Fractured Times

Hannah Close

To be in relationship is an affirmation of the essential porosity that keeps us alive, a process of becoming through reciprocity with the ‘other’.

Three Theses on Liminality

Jeremy D Johnson

On Thresholds, Interregnums, and Coyolxuahqui

Gavin Wood on Web3

Lovisa Björna in conversation with Ethereum Co-founder Gavin Wood. This is the first of a series of interviews in which Lovisa talks to key WEB3 pioneers.

This is not an 'Emergency'... It's Much More Serious Than That

Rupert Read and Wolfgang Knorr

The real climate emergency is that we don’t treat the climate crisis as an emergency because we feel no emergency. Call this ‘the meta-emergency’.

Apocalyptarians, Or: What the F*%k is Soolionensius???

Layman Pascal

On how to be a good apocalpytarian. The old question is: Will there be an apocalypse or not? The new question is: How do we live under the conditions of the apocalyptic mood?

Dark Hope and the Climate Crisis

Jonathan Rowson

Why aren't we rising up? Because the effects of climate change are distant in four dimensions: not here, not now, not me, and not clear. But here’s the dark hope: It is here. It is now. It is me. And it is clear.

Missteps as a Redemptive Path to Destiny

Kristina Dryza

We all blunder into the Grail Castle, exactly as Parzival did, before we can even hope to formulate and ask the question that may end our exile. And yet everything can be redeemed.

"An indigenous perspective gives you the capacity for a deep time view of history and a dynamic systems view."

Tyson Yunkaporta is a researcher who looks at complex global problems from indigenous perspectives to challenge entrenched Western ways of thinking and acting.

Cultivating an Emerging Paradigm

Tomas Björkman and Rufus Pollock

Context, challenges and a thesis.

Move Over

Indra Adnan

Most of us are still stuck in a conception of vertical power. How can we truly find a voice for the wider population, rather than simply seeking to replace the current leaders as sources of knowledge and wisdom? And how can we avoid celebrity cults in our own network?

We are the Comet

Zhiwa Woodbury

"Don't Look Up" is a powerful counter-cultural statement that taps into something deep in our collective psyche. It shows us that we have been looking to all the wrong people and institutions to solve our problems. Will it have the power to bring about a sea-change in our death-phobic culture?

The Transformative Power of Peer-to-Peer Learning Networks

Carolin Goethel

A plea for rhizomatic learning in community.

Playing and Creating in an Infinite Way

Peter Limberg

Like the player of life who expands the notion of game along with what it means to play, the artist of life expands the notion of art along with what it means to create. On meta-gaming vs. creating in the liminal web.

Powering the City: Energy Transition in Berlin

Tarn Rodgers Johns

Nothing is more urgent than the global energy transition. Across Europe, solar parks and off-shore wind farms are being ramped up in the drive towards carbon-neutral. At the same time, many countries are facing an "energy crisis" because of rising costs. How can we localise our energy supply, so that we all benefit from this transition?

Christmas, Consumerism and Confusion

Jonathan Rowson

Christmas is the season of shallow critique. We lament the commercialisation around us as if it were a seasonal problem, but lurking inside the wrapped presents, juicy puddings and roasted birds there are deeper questions about ethical drift and the social logic of our entire economic model.

What if We are all We've Got?

Zhiwa Woodbury

We urgently need to move from a blame- and victimhood model towards one of shared responsibility for the climate catastrophe. What might happen if all of us became ‘climate influencers’ by acting every day as if our lives depended on minimizing our carbon footprints?

Mapping for Emergence

Theo Cox, Rufus Pollock and Anna Katharina Schaffner

Life Itself and Emerge will join forces to map the emergent metamodern ecosystem. But what is so great about social network mapping? Why does it matter, and how can it help?

Systemic wisdom for and beyond Systems Change

Louis Klein

A critical systems perspective allows for exploring the universality of indigenous wisdom traditions and their understanding of the interconnectedness and interdependence of the flow of the world.

Learning to Walk Together: Small Steps towards the We of Us

Joe Ross

What is the calling that pulled us from the sea? Whatever will become of you and me? And how to become WE?

Emerge Documentary 2021

A beautiful deep dive into the Emerge Gathering 2021 by Tommy Gärdh. Indra Adnan, Tomas Björkman, Naresh Giangrande, Jonathan Rowson, Pamela von Sabljar, Anna Katharina Schaffner, Thomas Steiniger and Phoebe Tickell discuss the magic and potentiality of emergence, what Emerge is and their hopes for the future.

The Beautiful, Hidden Harmony of Chaos

Kristina Dryza

It is unhelpful to believe that chaos exists only outside of us. And that this external chaos presses in upon our internal lives in an intrusive and disruptive manner. Almost all creative processes happen in a space between order and chaos. Nothing new can emerge unless we learn to dance with the chaos within.

‘Mama Ayahuasca told me to invest in crypto’

Jules Evans

There is an overlap between crypto and psychedelics: Both operate at the margins of legality, are popular with libertarians who are suspicious of governments, and are symptoms of despair with the State of Things. Both are moonshots for a better way of living, and seem to inspire a similar fervour that a new age of love is dawning.

The Art of Self-Improvement: Ten Timeless Truths

Anna Katharina Schaffner

When it comes to self-improvement, we have much to learn from our ancestors and other cultures. What is more, self-improvement practices provide powerful barometers of the values, anxieties, and aspirations that preoccupy us at particular moments in time and expose basic assumptions about our purpose and nature.

The Matter With Things

In this landmark new book, Iain McGilchrist addresses some of the oldest and hardest questions humanity faces – ones that, however, have a practical urgency for all of us today: Who are we? What is the world? How can we understand consciousness, matter, space and time? Is the cosmos without purpose or value? Can we really neglect the sacred and divine?

On Weltschmerz and Weltanschauungen

Jonathan Rowson

Our challenge is to channel world pain into worldviews that clarify who we are, and how we should act, to inspire a shared sense of hope for the future.

“We are trying to bring the market to reflect the reality of life on the ground.”

Dr Ana Trbovich is the co-founder of Grid Singularity and The Energy Web Foundation (EWF), two technology ventures working to design the smart, green, decentralised energy ecosystems of the future.

RECLAIMING OUR INDIGENEITY: A Cure for Climate Trauma?

Zhiwa Woodbury

With only a limited window of time to bend the emissions curve, adapt to changing climate conditions, and halt the rapid decline in biodiversity, the values and wisdom of Indigenous Peoples can help us achieve this transformation.

"We need Inner Development Goals to reach the SDGs"

Jan Artem Henriksson

We may be lacking crucial inner skills to tackle our most urgent global action problems, of which the most pressing is the climate crisis. In this interview, Jan Artem Henriksson, the CEO of the Inner Development Goals Initiative, discusses with Waleria Schüle why inner work is needed to achieve a more sustainable global society.

The Future of Philanthropy

Louis Klein

What kind of philanthropy does our world need right now? Why venture philanthropy doesn't work, and how community and social value philanthropy can contribute to a global civil society realising the love for humanity.

Emerge Gathering 2021

A beautiful snapshot of the Emerge Gathering 2021 in Berlin by Tommy Gärdh

“Token Engineering is a very powerful tool, and an exciting challenge.”

Angela Kreitenweis is a co-founder of Token Engineering, a global community and ecosystem of people exploring the building blocks of future “token economies”.

Deliberately Developmental Spaces: A Key to Addressing the MetaCrisis?

Theo Cox, Rufus Pollock and Anna Katharina Schaffner

In this time of pressing global action problems, development in individual and collective “being” is a top priority. One promising approach is the creation of deliberately developmental spaces. We outline the key features of these spaces as well as some principles for their design and operation.

The Impossible We?

Jonathan Rowson

A bigger 'we' is often called upon to take collective action to address our burning global emergencies. But 'we' is the most problematic pronoun of them all: The We that wants to say there is an emergency is not the same We as the We that needs to hear it, and the We that needs to hear it has several different ideas about the nature of the We that should do something about it.

2020: The Walk

We are unprepared for the danger our future holds. We face floods, wildfires, extreme weather, crop failure, mass displacement and the breakdown of society. The time for denial is over. It is time to act.

"Practical Emergence" - Building a Bridge or Squaring the Circle?

Rike Pätzold

What may good leadership look like in times of great uncertainty, when planning and controlling have lost their effectiveness? How can we facilitate generative emergence in organisations?

“We are suffering from a wisdom famine in the West.”

John Vervaeke, professor of cognitive science at the University of Toronto, is the prophet of the "meaning crisis." The crisis of wisdom, he holds, is the defining crisis of our times. To overcome it, we must learn to steal the culture.

Sacrificing the Gods

Elizabeth Debold

We urgently need new myths to ground us in this time between worlds and stories. What may take the place of our current myths - the myths of rationality and science, materialism, capitalism, meritocracy and democracy, justice and equality? May Eros hold the key to our future social imaginaries?

Sylvia Plath's Plight

Josie Glausiusz

The brilliant poet Sylvia Plath's battle against post-war sexism and her attempt to juggle writing and motherhood resonate uncannily with our own age of unresolved structural gender inequalities, brought into sharp relief by the COVID pandemic.

How to Move Towards an Ecological Civilisation with Jeremy Lent

“We need to adopt a different kind of worldview that emphasizes our connectedness and interdependence.” Jeremy Lent talks about how to build a regenerative culture and an ecological civilization.

“Agriculture is a gateway into solving the bigger problems of our time”

Agricultural economist and farmer Benedikt Bösel is looking “Beyond Farming” to find agricultural solutions to the climate crisis.

What is Emerging? A Conversation with Indra Adnan and Anthea Lawson

Indra Adnan and Anthea Lawson talk about the politics of waking up, entangled activism, agency and the importance of inner work for outer change.

Obedience As Laughter: From the Great Dictator to the Great Spectator

Hanzi Freinacht

The next murderous regime will not be based on fear-mongering but on comedy. In the echoing laughter of the crowd we will find the next genocide. Un­wanted popul­a­tions violently exterminated, and the crowd laughing.

On Environmentalism and Spirituality

Jules Evans

While Romantic worshippers in the cathedral of nature were the first conservation-converts, the reverence for the interconnected whole remains at the heart of modern environmentalism. The shift from egocentric to ecocentric philosophies was driven by spiritual experiences.

Define or Be Defined: On Labelling Ourselves

Anna Katharina Schaffner

The titles we choose reflect our sense of identity, how we view ourselves, and how we want to be seen by the outside world. Mini-cultural barometers, they are also indicative of dominant social trends.

Introducing Perspectiva Press

Jonathan Rowson

Perspectiva Press publishes soul food for expert generalists. It celebrates integrative and imaginative perspectives that explore what it means to be human at a time when we expect too much of our minds, and in an era where life is increasingly shaped by technological forces beyond our control.

Let's Meet at the Crossroads

Bayo Akomolafe

What does it mean to live at the end of the world, during a pandemic? What do our old rituals of mastery signify – if anything – at a time when mastery is troubled by the breakdown in the world? When what it means to be human is no longer clear?

Shifting Paradigms

Carmen Salas

Systems thinking in the arts in pandemic times: How can the arts reinvent themselves and how can they help to catalyse a shift to more eco-social ways of being, thinking, and doing?

Savages and Cannibals: Revisiting Charles Darwin's Voyage of the Beagle

Josie Glausiusz

Racist assumptions are deeply embedded in the cultural fabric of the West. Lurking even in beloved texts where we may not expect to find them, they can easily translate into atrocities.

Crisis of Leadership

Sahana Chattopadhyay

Part 1: A lack of leadership has contributed substantially to the current pandemic emergency in India. It is a dual crisis of consciousness and conscience, created by arrogance and ineptitude.

Defund (And Redesign) Everything

Jordan Hall

Our social institutions are relics of the past. We must redesign and replace all of our institutions, and make this decade the most creative and generative in human history.

Building Bridges Into The Fog

Joe Ross & Tomas Björkman

It feels like we're standing at the edge of our civilisation, looking into the void, and all we can see is mist and fog. No wonder the rise of social anxiety is rampant, expressing itself in violence, conflict and oppression. So what do we do?

Exousiance: What Rivers Teach Us About Power

Minna Salami

The silencing of women and rivers in institutions of power bridges a connection between reality and myth; it is no wonder river goddesses are vengeful.
