Part 2/8:
I am Brian Thomas Swimme from the Human Energy Project, and in this series of short films, we explore how humanity is gradually building a planetary mind known as the noosphere. As we deepen our understanding of the noosphere, we discover a shared sense of meaning and purpose that can help us address our global challenges.
Cerebralization and the Emergence of Noosphere
A crucial element in the emergence of the noosphere is cerebralization, an evolutionary process that extends and deepens our mentality. In this discussion, we investigate how a sense of planetary and even cosmic mentality began to surface during the classical era of humanity.
