Orienting Ourselves to Natural Time with Brian Tourville: PYP 354
http://plantyourself.com/354 Is time linear, or cyclical? According to analog watches, time goes around in circles. According to calendars and planners and most of Western culture, time moves ever forward. And few of us take seriously the cycles of nature when we contemplate time and how we move through it. Brian Tourville has been thinking about time, and how our disconnection from the rhythms and cycles of the natural world contribute to our alienation from it. He joined me in Sun Studio (the Plant Yourself Podcast shed) to talk about his notions of "nature time," and how we can reconnect with our own nature by orienting ourselves to the natural cycles all around us. He also shared a calendar that he's designed, called "The Space of a Year," which is now for sale online at http://thespaceofayear.artspan.com.
