Our Goal
Syntropy is from the Greek syn, meaning together, and tropos, meaning turning or moving toward, so we can define it as a conscious turning and moving together toward declared values and integrating all human action for the good of all humanity. Syntropy is the core of a true democracy.
The Syntropic Arc of Life on Earth trends toward a Framework within which each person can choose their place in the Evolution of Life and Mind. We aim to encourage and facilitate non-ideological, democratic transitions to healthier, more ecologically adaptive and innovatively designed societies. Although democracy offers the best hope for human survival, there are 10 critical issues in today’s democracies that we need to address. In each of them, special interests obstruct further progress. We make our position clear, and we will support others interested in democratically achieving the changes we suggest.
The Music of Life: A Play about a Musical to Change the World
Next Reading 2023 TBA
A work of fiction, based on a true story.
Maricella and John have had a complicated on-again, off-again relationship for decades. Their partnership reaches new ground when Maricella pairs John, a psychiatrist-turned-writer/philosopher, with her talented singer-songwriter son Cal to collaborate on a new musical. They work together through an unexpected tragedy to reach a broader audience for John’s profound (yet somewhat dense) writings and create an ambitious musical piece for the world.
The Music of Life is about the role of artists in the fight for social justice, and the power of love to withstand unspeakable grief and loss. Above all, it’s about keeping dreams alive, and sustaining the soul through art and love.
