The World According To Monsanto

Monsanto is the world leader in genetically modified organisms (GMOs),
as well as one of the most controversial corporations in industrial
history. This century-old empire has created some of the most toxic
products ever sold, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and the
herbicide Agent Orange. Based on a painstaking investigation, The World
According to Monsanto puts together the pieces of the companys history,
calling on hitherto unpublished documents and numerous first-hand accounts

Η Monsanto είναι ο παγκόσμιος ηγέτης όσο αναφορά τους γενετικά μεταλλαγμένους οργανισμούς (GMO) όπως επίσης και μία από τις πιο αμφιλεγόμενες εταιρίες στην ιστορία της βιομηχανίας. Αυτή η αυτοκρατορία για πάνω από έναν αιώνια έχει δημιουργήσει μερικά από τα πιο τοξικά προϊόντα που πουλήθηκαν ποτέ, συμπεριλαμβανομένων των polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) και το ζιζανιοκτόνο Agent Orange που ήταν υπεύθυνο για την ισοπέδωση των δασών στο Βιετνάμ. Βασισμένο πάνω σε εξονυχιστική έρευνα η ταινία συνδέει τα κομμάτια της ιστορίας της εταιρίας ανάμεσα σε έως τώρα κρυμμένα έγγραφα και αμέτρητες μαρτυρίες.

"The Coca Cola Case"

 
The Coca-Cola Case - A documentary film about Coke and labour rights in the bottling plants.

You'll never look at a can of Coke the same way after seeing this documentary film.

Directors German Gutierrez and Carmen Garcia present a searing indictment of the Coca-Cola empire and its alleged kidnapping, torture and murder of union leaders trying to improve working conditions in Colombia, Guatemala and Turkey. The filmmakers follow labour rights lawyers Daniel Kovalik and Terry Collingsworth and an activist for the Stop Killer-Coke! Campaign, Ray Rogers, as they attempt to hold the giant U.S. multinational beverage company accountable in this legal and human rights battle.

Mans Right To Know

Tells the story of Wilhelm Reich's life & discoveries, and ultimate demise. He was able to document a cosmic life energy he called Orgone. Amongst his discoveries were Orgone energy was the Orgone energy accumulator that was used to reverse cancer. And also a device called the cloudbuster which could create or disperse clouds and create rain. He was thrown in jail after the FDA concluded he was a quack. His books and research were burned like a modern day witch hunt. He ended up dying of a heart attack in jail a week before his release


The Century Of The Self









THE  CENTURY OF THE SELF
Monday 29 April - Thursday 2 May 2002 7pm-8pm




















Adam Curtis' acclaimed series examines the rise of the all-consuming self against the backdrop of the Freud dynasty.
To many in both politics and business, the triumph of the self is the ultimate expression of democracy, where power has finally moved to the people. Certainly the people may feel they are in charge, but are they really? The Century of the Self tells the untold and sometimes controversial story of the growth of the mass-consumer society in Britain and the United States. How was the all-consuming self created, by whom, and in whose interests?
The Freud dynasty is at the heart of this compelling social history. Sigmund Freud, founder of psychoanalysis; Edward Bernays, who invented public relations; Anna Freud, Sigmund's devoted daughter; and present-day PR guru and Sigmund's great grandson, Matthew Freud.
Sigmund Freud's work into the bubbling and murky world of the subconscious changed the world. By introducing a technique to probe the unconscious mind, Freud provided useful tools for understanding the secret desires of the masses. Unwittingly, his work served as the precursor to a world full of political spin doctors, marketing moguls, and society's belief that the pursuit of satisfaction and happiness is man's ultimate goal. 





money as dept

Paul Grignon's 47-minute animated presentation of "Money as Debt" tells in very simple and effective graphic terms what money is and how it is being created. It is an entertaining way to get the message out. The Cowichan Citizens Coalition and its "Duncan Initiative" received high praise from those who previewed it. I recommend it as a painless but hard-hitting educational tool and encourage the widest distribution and use by all groups concerned with the present unsustainable monetary system in Canada and the United States.

ZEITGEIST

The Zeitgeist Movement is not a political movement. It does not recognize nations, governments, races, religions, creeds or class. Our understandings conclude that these are false, outdated distinctions which are far from positive factors for true collective human growth and potential. Their basis is in power division and stratification, not unity and equality, which is our goal. While it is important to understand that everything in life is a natural progression, we must also acknowledge the reality that the human species has the ability to drastically slow and paralyze progress, through social structures which are out of date, dogmatic, and hence out of line with nature itself. The world you see today, full of war, corruption, elitism, pollution, poverty, epidemic disease, human rights abuses, inequality and crime is the result of this paralysis.
This movement is about awareness, in avocation of a fluid evolutionary progress, both personal, social, technological and spiritual. It recognizes that the human species is on a natural path for unification, derived from a communal acknowledgment of fundamental and near empirical understandings of how nature works and how we as humans fit into/are a part of this universal unfolding we call life. While this path does exist, it is unfortunately hindered and not recognized by the great majority of humans, who continue to perpetuate outdated and hence degenerative modes of conduct and association. It is this intellectual irrelevancy which the Zeitgeist Movement hopes to overcome through education and social action.
The goal is to revise our world society in accord with present day knowledge on all levels, not only creating awareness of social and technological possibilities many have been conditioned to think impossible or against "human nature", but also to provide a means to overcome those elements in society which perpetuate these outdated systems.
An important association, upon which many of the ideas of this movement are derived come from an organization called " The Venus Project" directed by social engineer and industrial designer, Jacque Fresco. He has worked nearly his entire life to create the tools needed to assist a design of the world which could eventually eradicate war, poverty, crime, social stratification and corruption. His notions are not radical or complex. They do not impose a subjective interpretation in their formation. In this model, society is created as a mirror of nature, with the variables predefined, inherently.
The movement itself is not a centralized construct.
We are not here to lead, but to organize and educate.


Το Κίνημα Zeitgeist δεν είναι ένα πολιτικό κίνημα. Δεν αναγνωρίζει κράτη, κυβερνήσεις, φυλές, θρησκείες ή τάξεις. Η κατανόηση μας δείχνει, ότι αυτές είναι ψευδείς, ξεπερασμένες διακρίσεις, που απέχουν πολύ από θετικούς παράγοντες για την πραγματική συλλογική ανθρώπινη ανάπτυξη και δυναμικό. Βάση των παραπάνω είναι η εξουσία, η διαίρεση και η διαστρωμάτωση, δεν είναι η ενότητα και η ισότητα, που είναι ο στόχος μας.
Έχουμε την πρόθεση να αποκαταστήσουμε τις θεμελιώδεις ανάγκες και την περιβαλλοντική ευαισθητοποίηση μέσω της προώθησης των πιο σύγχρονων αντιλήψεων σχετικά με το ποιοι και τι πραγματικά είμαστε, σε συνδυασμό με το πώς η επιστήμη, η φύση και η τεχνολογία (και όχι η θρησκεία, η πολιτική και το χρήμα) κρατούν τα κλειδιά της προσωπικής μας ανάπτυξης, όχι μόνο ως μεμονωμένα ανθρώπινα όντα, αλλά ως πολιτισμός, τόσο δομικά όσο και πνευματικά.

Ο στόχος είναι να αναθεωρήθει η κοινωνία του κόσμου μας σε όλα τα επίπεδα σύμφωνα με τις γνώσεις του σήμερα. Όχι μόνο για να ευαισθητοποιήσει σχετικά με τις κοινωνικές και τεχνολογικές δυνατότητες, που πολλοί έχουν εκπαιδευτεί να θεωρούν ως αδύνατες ή ενάντια στην "ανθρώπινη φύση", αλλά και για να προωθήσει τα μέσα για την υπέρβαση αυτών των στοιχείων της κοινωνίας που διαιωνίζουν τέτοια παρωχημένα συστήματα.

Η κατανόηση του ότι είμαστε συμβιωτικά όντα και ότι ζούμε σε ένα συμβιωτικό σύμπαν θα πρέπει να έχει σημαντικό αντίκτυπο στον τρόπο που σκεφτόμαστε και ενεργούμε προς τα πάντα και προς όλους.

The Zeitgeist Movement: Orientation Presentation

Fire on the Mountain: A Gathering of Shamans

A film by David Cherniack Productions in association with Global Vision Corporation and Mystic Fire Video Fire on the Mountain: A Gathering of Shamans is a documentary about the connection between consciouness and nature, as embodied in the spiritual traditions of Indigenous Peoples, whose ecological metaphors of the sacred are so relevant to the modern world. We shot the project in 1997 at an historic 10-day gathering of shamans from five continents, who travelled to Karma Ling, a Tibetan Buddhist retreat centre in the Val Saint Hugon in Savoy, in the French Alps, to discuss their concerns with H.H. the Dalai Lama and high-level representatives of the world's religions. This documentary embodies the wish of these Indigenous People - all traditional wisdom-keepers, shamans and medicine-women - who requested us to communicate their message to the world.

The Yes Men


The Yes Men, a movie, follows a couple of anti-corporate activist-pranksters as they impersonate World Trade Organization spokesmen on TV and at business conferences around the world. (Click here for some articles about the movie.)
The story follows Andy and Mike from their beginnings with GWBush.com, and on to their tasteless parody of the WTO's website. Some visitors don’t notice the site is a fake, and send speaking invitations meant for the real WTO. Mike and Andy play along with the ruse and soon find themselves attending important functions as WTO representatives.
Delighted to speak for the organization they oppose, Andy and Mike don thrift-store suits and set out to shock their unwitting audiences with darkly comic satires on global free trade. Weirdly, the experts don’t notice the joke and seem to agree with every terrible idea the two can come up with.
Exhausted by their failed attempts to shock, Mike and Andy take a whole new approach for one final lecture.
The Yes Men is directed by Dan Olman, Sarah Price, and Chris Smith, whose previous credits include the 1999 Sundance Winner “American Movie.” It was released by United Artists.

The New Biology - Where Mind and Matter Meet

Part 1
Part 2

By Bruce lipton Recent advances in cellular science are heralding an important evolutionary turning point. For almost fifty years we have held the illusion that our health and fate were preprogrammed in our genes, a concept referred to as genetic determinacy. Though mass consciousness is currently imbued with the belief that the character of one's life is genetically predetermined, a radically new understanding is unfolding at the leading edge of science. Cellular biologists now recognize that the environment, the external universe and our internal physiology, and more importantly, our perception of the environment, directly controls the activity of our genes. This video will broadly review the molecular mechanisms by which environmental awareness interfaces genetic regulation and guides organismal evolution
