I have been trying NOtebookLM to make sense of the first seasons of ImaginAction podcast. It is pretty amazing to reflect and see the results it came up with.

Podcast Guests and the Evolving Nature of Social Arts
The podcast guests' experiences show how social arts are evolving to support individuals and communities, particularly in times of transition and crisis.

●Social arts fosters connection and community building
●Social arts challenges traditional power structures and promotes inclusion
●Social arts facilitates dialogue and understanding
● Social arts fosters personal growth and self-discovery
● Social arts encourages experimentation and adaptation

Overall, the podcast guests offer diverse perspectives on the evolving nature of social arts. They show how social arts can address contemporary issues, promote individual and collective well-being, and contribute to positive social change.

Is this problem for you?

Hi!

I wanted to open a conversation around re-connective leadership and social arts and I was about to open a hub for the new U.lab course, As I was about to do that I looked up the ARTS BASED SENSE-MAKING AND RESEARCH HUB, I started for the Gaia Journey in 2021 and saw it has 90 members! Might is make sense first to see if this wants to be reactivated and "discuss" through arts-based sense-making the topic, I thought? I hope those of you attending or not attending (as of now) this year's U.lab (still open and free to register at: https://www.u-school.org/offerings/u-lab-1x-2024) and those who were part or were not part of our Gaia journey activation might want to explore that together on zoom for a re-activation call on October 3rd at 2 pm CET (Rome Time). For more info contact uri@bamamaps.com or The Hub page On the U-school site at https://www.u-school.org/community/hubs/gaia-arts-based-sesnemaking-and-research-hub

SupportPresencing Institute is funded by individual donations, foundation grants, and in-person programs. We also benefit from an abundance of good will and voluntary contributions of people’s time. We are deeply grateful to our global community for all the ways you give.
