Brian Swimme dives deep and explores the concept of the noosphere. Brian Thomas Swimme is Director of the Third Story at Human Energy, a nonprofit public benefit organization, and professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies in the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness program. Swimme did his doctoral work in gravitational dynamics in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Oregon. His published work includes the popular KZfaq video series, "The Story of the Noosphere," written with Monica DeRaspe-Bolles, The Universe is a Green Dragon, The Universe Story written with Thomas Berry, The Hidden Heart of the Cosmos, and The Journey of the Universe written with Mary Evelyn Tucker. Swimme teamed with Tucker and David Kennard to produce "Journey of the Universe," an Emmy-winning film released in 2011. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

It’s people like Brian Swimme that move the collective forward. The Universe continues to desperately seek to understand itself. One way is through the human. Thank you Dr. Swimme for the deep insights and the context you offer. Your work will be referenced in the centuries ahead.

This presentation made me reflect on the role of us humans at this juncture of our planetary existence. We as a species are, seemingly, behaving so incoherently that one just hopes some co-created order will eventually emerge.

Bon chance as the Francophones say. We are so far into the 6th mass extinction that those of us who've been following Brian for 25 years, along with his writing partner, Father Thomas Berry, feel that the human has run outta time.

Quite insightful. I wonder what the guru's in India and Tibet would think or add to this conversation?

Anthropocentric fantasia. This talk is so dissociated going from one anthropocentric assumption to another as to make it mystical not scientific.

no facts here ...

Right. He doesn't look at the cosmos as a done deal but as an evolving body. He's not observing it, he's part of its evolution. It's not an objective story but one that makes sense of existence in a meaningful world. Let humans feel that as our energetic rather than another possibility that everything is random, no meaning, you live and you die, nothing ennobling there. What's the fact? No facts. Just sensing what story feels real to you, or just hop into the one with hope and beauty, and fingers crossed that's the one that prevails.
