Ervin Laszlo, Philosopher, HOLOS: We are whole. We are resilient.

Philosopher Ervin Laszlo, Interview with Sputnik Futures, 2002: “Now I think it’s time to come back to this concept of belonging, to a larger community, the community of life on Earth. Which is itself a part of the community of the solar system, part of the galaxy, part of the universe. So this is a cultural change, a change in consciousness. I think it is the key to creating a future that’s livable and it's enduring. Well, Holos arrives if and when there is a real transformation of consciousness. It is the next age in a positive development. It’s the next stage." Frontier ideas have a habit of being ahead of their time…or are they? Perhaps, the age of Holos, which Ervin Laszlo spoke of is finally becoming visible. And, perhaps concepts such as sustainability, blockchain, Zebras, and cooperatives are the tangible stepping stones to what comes next. As we come through challenging times we are preparing for a great transition. Shifting worldviews, values and ethics are necessary to manifest the resiliency we will need to thrive in our new economy and environment. We have learned that we are all connected and interdependent. The culture of Holos is rooted in a new consciousness. The opportunity is for innovators to identify resilient platforms and move from disruptive to conscious innovation. What will life be like in our holistic world that will redefine our not-very-distant future? We are happy to announce our public launch of Alice in Futureland. Look for thought provoking videocasts, podcasts, books and events that uncover the new realities shaping art, science, technology and culture. And, for what this will mean for business, please join Sputnik Futures in observing the new realities shaping the Resilience Economy.
