Holons: The Building Blocks of the Universe

A fun, fascinating, and far-reaching exploration of one of the essential cornerstones of integral theory — holons, or the apparently endless series of “part/wholes” that fundamentally compose reality as we know it. Accompanied by music, imagery, and animation, this presentation will not only help you better understand what a holon actually is (and what it isn’t!) but also how this understanding can radically deepen your appreciation for the natural world.

The Many Ways We Grow

Ken Wilber and Corey deVos offer a guided tour through the many kinds of growing up, helping us understand development not as a single ladder we ascend over time, but as an entire psychograph of different intelligences, capacities, and gifts. Whereas most developmental models focus on a single line unfolding through multiple stages, integral accounts for all of these different lines — cognitive, morals, needs, values, and a dozen others, each growing at their own pace.

The Polarity Lens

Using Everything Everywhere All at Once as our guide, Mark Allan Kaplan shows how the greatest films don’t simply depict conflict — they consciously hold their opposites, and weave them into something whole. You’ll trace Evelyn’s journey from nihilism to radical kindness, watch the everything-bagel meet its opposite in a single googly eye, and discover why “because nothing matters, I can choose to be kind” might be the most integral line in modern cinema.
