-20th Century Thinking- Knowledge will eventually eradicate uncertainty and paradox.
Our world is rooted in an understanding of Reality as an objective phenomena that can be measured, manipulated and ultimately known.
This thinking yields a multitude of amazing results, including the technologies allowing you to surf the net and end up reading these words.
Paradoxically, these technologies are simultaneously re-inventing the thinking and culture that produced them.
Today's fast pace, decreased float time, massive information flow, information smog, lack of information boundaries, constant uncertainty, and never-ending stress showcase the urgency for another way to understand our experience of Reality.
Rather than creating certainty and clarity, the Information Age is increasing our uncertainty, confusion, and feelings of being overwhelmed.
-21st Century Thinking- Uncertainty and Paradox are integral aspects of Reality.
Parts of Reality previously seen as eventually knowable and predictable are now held as ultimately unknowable and beyond conscious understanding and control.
This notion invites the Mysterious, dressed in the modern-day garb of uncertainty, to re-enter the picture as a suddenly relevant and unavoidable part of the process.
At a very deep level, this idea disturbs and disrupts our current sense of reality and evokes the need for a radical reorganization of the way we look at, listen to, and move within our world.
Concerns with Reality have traditionally been left to philosophers and poets, scientists, mystics, and visionaries.
