PARALLAX-LECTURE 011: JEREMY JOHNSON

The talk will unpack the title itself: what is the structure of feeling in our time and how does it relate to a shifting *consciousness of time*, itself? What does a new relationship with time do for enabling us to actualize new futures? How does this moment make sense in the context of the whole (process) of cultural evolution in which we are situated?   Jeremy Johnson has worked in the online learning field for five years with companies such as Evolver and the Open Center in New York City. He is an editor for Revelore Press and contributing editor at Reality Sandwich magazine. He has published on OMNI, Conscious Lifestyle Magazine, Kosmos Journal, Evolve Magazine, and Evolve and Ascend. Jeremy is the current president of the International Jean Gebser Society. He is forthcoming author of Passages From Tomorrow. Links:    Parallax Magazine Support Parallax on Patreon
