Maureen Wild presented an Educational DVD Series: JOURNEY OF THE UNIVERSE … with Discussion
Those attending had either read the book Journey of the Universe by Brian Swimme and Mary Evelyn Tucker or watched the film which was shown on three different occasions at the local Roxy (see below).
In addition to watching segments of the DVD’s Maureen captured the interest of those attending with her variety of visual teaching tools.
The goal of this educational series is to:
- reflect on an elaboration of the evolutionary story by scientists as this is also integrated with the sections of the Journey of the Universe film.
- explore how this epic story is informing the ways in which we are creating a vibrant and sustainable Earth community. The implications for ecology, economics, agriculture, urban living, art, psychology and race are explored.
