ISSUE #6.

On a branch
floating downriver
a cricket, singing.

—Kobayashi Issa.

FEATURED SONG
The Sun in September ~ Matthew Halsall

On this issue's playlist, spiritual jazzman Matthew Halsall redefines trumpet  →

Think.

There are no monologues in nature,
only the musical language of relationship. 
Orcas communicate in song. 

Minimum Wines

Listen to a story about the orca orchestra.

Feel.

Super rare footage from Woodstock alongside the equally rare 1991 funk release – ‘3 Days Man!’ by Australian band Bellydance. What a moment.

 

///////////////////////////////////

Wonder.

“Being stuck at home for a few weeks and months, forced to homeschool, is a daunting prospect – but also a tremendous opportunity to cultivate the virtues of independence and original thinking.”

Minimum Wines

Mordechai Levy-Eichel was homeschooled from the age of 11 before becoming a political science lecturer at Yale and the co-host of podcast AntiEducation.

Read his short recommendations for homeschooling.

Extra bits.

A good word:
allies
(noun, plural)
Associations with others for a common cause or purpose.
How wonderful that I am surrounded by plant and animal allies. 

A good pocket-sized book for isolation:
Weed Forager’s Handbook: A guide to edible and medicinal weeds in Australia 

A good artist:
Tamara Dean.

Our climate change pledge for 2020.

We believe that conscious living, conscious choice, and thoughtful action can go a long way in making change and we commit ourselves to positive action in 2020. 

We know that we still have the power to halt the effects of climate change. Remember your vote counts, your voice can be heard, and your conscious choices matter (how and what we purchase/ how we grow the food and resources we need/where we choose to source our energy from/how we choose to relate to each other).

Each and every choice makes a difference. 

Thanks for being a part of this journey.
