    Art and Climate Change
    A timely introduction to the fields of environmental art, art and ecology, art and climate change, art and activism, and art in the Anthropocene.Global awareness of climate change is increasing, and the scientific evidence is incontrovertible: an environmental crisis is upon us. Art and Climate Change presents an overview of ecologically conscious contemporary art that addresses the climate emergency, as artists across the world call for an active, collective engagement with the planet, and illuminate some of the structures that threaten humanity's survival.Across five chapters, curators Maja and Reuben Fowkes examine artworks that respond to the Anthropocene and its detrimental impact on our world, from scenes of nature decimated by ongoing extinction events and landscapes turned to waste by extraction, to art from marginalized communities most affected by the injustice of climate change. What guides the artists gathered together here is an ardent concern for the living, breathing subject of the Earth and all fellow terrestrials caught up in this fast-moving climate drama.

    Thought Stillness and Time: Six Small Group Discussions, Gstaad, Switzerland, 1965, Hörbuch, Digital, 414min
    Is thought detrimental? 15 August 1965. Duration: 63 minutes. Why does one seek pleasure? Can the mind face only facts and not thought? Why have I never said, 'Thought is poison' to myself? Meeting something one doesn't know, facing something which has no answer. Acting without knowing. What is a state of mind which is silent? Time is detrimental. Are we twisting everything to our core of pleasure? Am I aware of the process of thinking? 18 August 1965. Duration: 60 minutes. Can I see that thought is destructive, except where it is essential? Why is it that we don't see something immediately? Do you know when you are thinking? Is the thing that we call thinking thinking at all? Do you think from the background noise when a problem arises? When the mind becomes totally aware of the background, is there thinking when a problem arises? What happens when I am aware of this hum, this noise incessantly going on? Is the background noise different from the observer? How am I to live an everyday life with complete silence? What will make me see that thought breeds frustration? 21 August 1965. Duration: 78 minutes. What is the function of thought? Can the mind see the fact that thought will always breed frustration? Function is necessary, but function with status, position and power must breed frustration. Without frustration thought says to itself, 'I am not seeking. I don't want anything.' If there is no thought, what happens? The very perception of the limitation of thought is the act of opening the door rather than thought opening the door. To function without prestige, without frustration, that itself is an extraordinary state, meaning to function without self-centred activity. Language: English. Narrator: Jiddu Krishnamurti.

    Body Toxins: How Body Toxins Can Affect Physical and Mental Health , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 76min
    The language surrounding what toxins are is purposely vague. The Merriam-Webster definition for toxin states, "A toxin is a poisonous substance that is a specific product of the metabolic activities of a living organism, and is usually very unstable, notably toxic when introduced into the tissues, and typically capable of inducing antibody formation." Simply put, a toxin is harmful matter. The reason for this ambiguous language is due to the many types of toxins, all with different and potentially detrimental effects. For the purpose of clarity and consistency in our detox book, we break down toxins into three categories: internal toxins, external toxins, and toxic behaviors. ungekürzt. Language: English.
