Empathy, evolution and civilization

Apparently, there’s an entire series of animated lectures, but I came across this one by way of Jelly’s blog post about this video in particular and he’s right. It’s quite incredible. The animation is so effective and the talk, by Jeremy Rifkin, is so fascinating that I am planning on re-watching it this weekend. An excellent way to think about how we build community, connections and a sense of being related, as opposed to being “aliens”.

    Rifkin is on the right track. Love the fact that he is demonstrating energy and consciousness across the timespan of civilization, particularly the shift from geopolitical to biosphere. RSA video's can be found here also http://comment.rsablogs.org.uk/videos/ and I certainly support this “mind-mapping” approach by RSA.
