Hello John, so good to hear from you!

It's fantastic what the ZAD has achieved - not just stopping the airport,
not just staying on the site, but inventing lives in the present that can
imagine a viable future. I guess everyone knows that's not so easy to do.

and meanwhile on the zad we are busy thinking how a new cosmology might

It's different from the norm, yet it's also familar (feast days, carnival,
vague cultural memories of paganism). It looks backward in time, but also
forward, with a language of regenerative cells that includes and transforms
modern biology. The norm today is a cosmology of space travel and nuclear
power. This has been overarching all politics since WWII. It's time to
change. If life on earth feels fundamentally different, then different
decisions can be taken. I went through such a change in the way that I feel
existence in the world. It matters.

love, Brian
