Episode notes

The world of mental process is both tautological and ecologicalk. I mean that it's a slowly self healing tautology. Left to itself, any large piece creatura will tend to settle toward tautology,. But every now and then the consistency gets torn. The tautology breaks up like the surface of a pond when a stone is thrown into it. Then the tautology slowly but immediately, starts to heal. And the healing may be ruthless. Whole species may be exterminated in the process.

We invited Nora Bateson back on the show for another sensemaking conversation. Nora Bateson is an award-winning filmmaker, writer, educator, and the President of the International Bateson Institute.

We wanted to hear her views on the current disintegration of societal systems, and how to navigate the chaos of the world.

We talk about how to raise and educate children for the uncertain future, and how to find the potential for healing and transformation in these difficult times. She also shares some thought provoking quotes from her father Gregory Bateson’s writings.
