Weaving A Living Network (Voicecraft Live VIII)
About
The next Voicecraft Live welcomes an evening of immersion in questions of common unity, of what it means to meet and relate with culture and with difference, of what it means to communicate.
Think salon and symposium meet fireside and mystery, kept by a heartfelt dedication to cultivate culture and respond with the reality of our time, and deep time.
This participatory event will be facilitated by contributors to Voicecraft Melbourne, several of whom you can read about below.
Voicecraft is a living network and context for transformative communication in relation with patterns of profound importance in our time. Previous events this year have included evenings of interfaith dialogue with leaders of multiple faiths, exploration into topics of AI, wisdom and power, dreams and psyche and several more.
You can watch or listen to previous live events along with other material created for a local and global network and audience on the Voicecraft podcast or YouTube.
ABOUT YOUR HOSTS ON THE EVENING (Some of the Voicecraft Network)
Tim is out of the country and recharging. He and Taryn will return in October. But Voicecraft Live continues, and intends to welcome a network of firekeepers and contributors to facilitate gatherings, events and emergent experiences on the journey ahead. That makes this a unique opportunity to participate in and get to know the spirit and potential of this context through a different set of voices and constraints.
