    #11 | From Crisis to Coherence with Ian Mackenzie

    In this reVillager episode, Jasper Sircus sits down with Ian MacKenzie, a successful filmmaker, writer, men’s mentor, cofounder of ⁠The School of Mythopoetics⁠, and the host of the Mythic Masculine Podcast⁠. He’s also a long-time friend and more recently a collaborator on our upcoming course in the reVillager Academy. In this conversation, we chat about his newest film, “⁠The Village of Lovers⁠”, which is a documentary film about an ecovillage in Portugal named Tamera. The film took him and his two other co-directors 7 years to complete and is finally now going to premiere globally online, by Self-Determined Payment on February 7th, 2024. Ian shares more about not just the film, but also the upcoming summit he is hosting in unison with the film’s release around the same themes, “⁠A Cry from the Future”, which will be a visionary online gathering, hosted from Feb 10-14th. This summit will bring together amazing leaders and activists of our times to discuss how we can transform our culture and move from global crisis to group coherence. In this episode, Jasper and Ian go into depth about the philosophies and practices that make a community strong and relationally solid, both within the context of an ecovillage as well as in the broader community. Ian shares about what he learned while living in and documenting Tamera, and lays out some of their key ways of thinking about relational harmony and communal structure, including a modality they created for group processing called “Forum”. We also explore what “village-minded” really means and how we can use the wisdom and practice of intentional community living to create more accountable, transparent, and compassionate systems and leadership.

    #9 | New Systems Architecture, DAO’s, and the Future of Community - Raamayan Ananda

    We enjoyed having Raamayan on our podcast this week, diving in deep into the modern technology and tools that are facilitating more sovereign and empowered communities. Raamayan a Leading New Systems Architect who fuses spirituality and systems change.  He an active voice in the Web3 and DAO revolution and is an interdisciplinary who has founded VEME and Creation Space as platforms to give online creators the tools to transition to a decentralized creator economy, using NFTs, DAO’s, and AI generative creation tech. He hosts a podcast with his brother Zamir, called “The Next Renaissance Podcast”.  He is also a musician and yogi who shares his lineage of Indian philosophy and wisdom in relation to the newly emerging world of blockchain technology. There is so much potential for what we can build with these tools, with our hearts in the right place. That's why this excites us so much here at reVillager, because we believe when you give people the tools to craft their own community structures, you get transparency, equivalence of voice, and empowered collaborators that are driven to make the world around them more beautiful. THANKS AGAIN for the HUGE support we’ve received from this Kickstarter. Now that we have reached our goal, we are going for a stretch goal of 33K US to build the reVillager Academy and host community-building courses that will allow more people access to this important knowledge. JUST 1 DAY LEFT GUYS! We are almost there. www.Fundrevillager.com
