Wired for Empathy?

"We don't lose our... nationhood, religious identities or even our blood ties. We extend our identities so we can think of the human race as our fellow sojourners, and other creatures as our evolutionary family, and the biosphere as our community. We have to rethink the human narrative."
-Jeremy Rifkin
economist, speaker and activist

Video report from Underground!

Mad props to the fine folks at Ufilmhouse.com for posting this vid from Underground 2010 on Vimeo. 50+ artists from the mighty ArtLoveMagic collective took over the Gallery and main hall of Southside on Lamar building in downtown Dallas for what amounted to a one day festival of live art, poetry and music.

peep more coverage of the show at the ArtLoveMagic website!

Genius At Work

this speech by Elizabeth Gilbert parallels in many ways my own thinking about creativity.
there are those times when the product is so much greater than the sum of hard work and talent. I find it very easy to believe that God gives me some of the better ideas and flourishes, and that it's my job to dig through my soul to find them.
but rather than ramble about it, i'd love to discuss it with anybody who watches the video. what did you think of her comments?
