This essential, unmissable panel discussion at the Art Gallery of South Australia's Radford Auditorium, held as part of the Nature Festival SA, features some of South Australia's most distinguished thinkers, joined by environmental philosopher Professor Glenn Albrecht, to explore how we might transition from the Anthropocene to the Symbiocene.
The Symbiocene - a proposed future geological era where human actions, culture, and technology work in harmony with the interconnected web of life on Earth.
The Anthropocene - the current era in which human activity has become the dominant influence on Earth's climate, environment, and ecosystems, to the detriment of all.
The panel will be followed by 'Earth Emotions' at 3:30pm, a concert by the Bowerbird Collective with Professor Glenn Albrecht.
‘Earth Emotions’ combines a deeply moving program of music with spoken word to reveal a path from disconnection to connection with nature, instilling hope for a better future. The performance features incredible compositions performed by the Bowerbird Collective, with Simone Slattery on violin, Anthony Albrecht on cello and narration by environmental philosopher, Prof. Glenn Albrecht.
