ghostsofevolution | Collapse of Culture and Ecology: The Death of Expectations (Connie Barlow and Terry Patten) @ghostsofevolution | Uploaded December 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
(OPEN FULL CAPTION FOR A LIST OF ALL TOPICS AND LINKS.) This conversation between CONNIE BARLOW and TERRY PATTEN was recorded and published October 2020 in AUDIO format on Terry's "State of Emergence" podcast series. The previous week, Terry had posted his conversation with Connie's husband, Michael Dowd — well known as the founder of the "postdoom" concept and community.
The shared projects of Connie and Michael are major elements of this conversation, and all three were great friends. Owing to Terry's style of probing for deep insights and personal story elements that reveal how worldviews and values arise and shift, this is the only video online that entails substantial elements of Connie's own trajectory.
Terry Patten died one year after this podcast episode (October 2021). Michael Dowd died three years later (October 2023).
Two month's after Michael's death, Connie was inspired to use her editing skills to shorten the audio and then add image/text overlays to post on youtube. Having spent 19 years on-the-road as an evolutionary educator with Reverend Dowd, and then settling in Michigan at the onset of covid, Connie had acquired an enormous stock of artistic photos and videos of NATURE. Thus, all the video fragments and almost all the images here were filmed by Connie. She posted this video Christmas Day 2023 as a tribute to both her deceased husband and her dear friend.
