Dear all,

Please find attached an invitation to a fantastic talk this Friday night
at the Sci-Bono Discovery Centre.  Please pass on to friends and family

from a critically thinking Environmental Engineer.  I have found
Claire's talks to fill me with hope at the possibilities that still
abound in the crazy times in which we live in.

Earth Sciences Week with a captivating presentation by Claire Janisch

Claire presents a fascinating, mind-expanding synthesis of extraordinary
science, the connection with ancient wisdom and the implications for our
world.  It brings together music, art, maths, science & nature in a
synthesis that inspires wonder and reminds us of the magic of the
universe.

The presentation makes connections between a variety of concepts in a
way that reveals an emerging pattern in the whole system. Many have
known about some or all of these concepts for a long-time, and this
presentation ties them together simply and wonderfully. The implications
are astounding for every area of life inspiring renewed interest in many
different fields, and most of all the concept of hope emerging for our
view of the future.

"I found Claire's session fascinating, mind-expanding and so relevant.
My wish is that this is extended to as many people who are open to
radical new thinking as possible.  It can only excite and motivate
people to start doing some radical new thinking on their own or in small
groups. I for one would attend again and I have at least a dozen people
I would invite to go with me." - Anthony Duigan, Managing Director, JCP
(SA) Pty Ltd, Chairman: National Association of Conservancies of South
Africa 

Tea and Coffee will be served along with a cash bar. 

 Please don't forget to RSVP.
