Enlivenment
with Andreas Weber
Series 2: Episode 8
In this episode, Philipa and Daniel discuss the kindness at the heart of reality with author and biophilosopher, Dr Andreas Weber.
Dr Andreas Weber is a biologist, philosopher, nature writer, and mystic. He focuses on a re-evaluation of our understanding of the living. He proposes to view – and treat – all organisms as subjects and hence the biosphere as a meaning-creating and poetic reality. Andreas is Visiting Professor at the UNISG, Pollenzo, Italy and a honorary teacher at the University of the Arts, Berlin. He has published more than fifteen books, including Enlivenment: Toward a Poetics for the Anthropocene, The Biology of Wonder, and Matter & Desire: An Erotic Ecology. Andreas shares his work in two on demand courses with Advaya: The Ecology of Love and Heart Wisdom, both of which are available on the Advaya platform.
