Cosmogenesis with Brian Thomas Swimme ~ Episode 12

Sam King speaks with Brian Thomas Swimme about his most recent book, Cosmogenesis: An Unveiling of the Expanding Universe (2022).
Brian Thomas Swimme is a professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies, in San Francisco, where he teaches evolutionary cosmology to graduate students in the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness program. He received his Ph.D. (1978) from the department of mathematics at the University of Oregon for work with Richard Barrar on singularity theory, with a dissertation entitled "Singularities in the N-Body Problem."
Swimme's published work portrays the 14 billion year trajectory of cosmogenesis "as a spellbinding drama, full of suspense, valor, tragedy, and celebration." His work includes The Universe is a Green Dragon (1984), The Universe Story, written with Thomas Berry (1992), The Hidden Heart of the Cosmos (1996), The Journey of the Universe, written with Mary Evelyn Tucker (2011), and Cosmogenesis (2022). Swimme is the producer of three DVD series: Canticle to the Cosmos (1990), The Earth's Imagination (1998), and The Powers of the Universe (2004). Swimme teamed with Mary Evelyn Tucker, David Kennard, Patsy Northcutt, and Catherine Butler to produce Journey of the Universe, a Northern California Emmy-winning film released in 2011. These works draw together scientific discoveries in astronomy, geology and biology, with humanistic insights concerning the nature of the universe.

Sam, Brian has been a mentor of mine since 1999 when 12 of us got together each Sunday evening to tackle his VHS series: Canticle to the Cosmos. btw, Humanity can only rise above the fray by coming together in unison, since that is the way of The Universe=aka _One Song_ !
