Discussion | A New Agnosticism


A conversation between author Robert Wright and Anne Klaeysen. Scientific and technological progress have transformed the intellectual landscape, changing the way we understand the universe and our place in it. How—if at all—can spiritual thought adapt to this new and challenging context? Robert Wright has outlined a new spiritual worldview that is not just compatible with modern science but deeply informed by it—and by developments in technology and social science as well. He also explains why a “new agnosticism” is taking shape—an agnosticism open-minded enough to accommodate a flourishing of different “spiritual but not religious” worldviews.

Performance | Go Forth: A Performance by Kaneza Schaal


Drawing inspiration from the Egyptian Book of the Dead, GO FORTH is a performance and photo installation that considers how we create space in our lives for the presence of the absent. Burial is proposed not as erasure but as offering restitution and performing rites. The 3,000-year-old funerary text is approached as an ancient performance score: excavating the spells and incantations to create a series of burial vignettes, fragments of translation, memory and imagination. Photographic funerary murals usher the audience into a mythological underground landscape. Galvanized by the intimate relationship between black people and death around the world, GO FORTH paves way for its audience to reflect on their individual and collective mourning processes.
