Eclipse

A poem by Emily Dickinson:

If He dissolve—then—there is nothing—more—
Eclipse—at Midnight—
It was dark—before—
Sunset—at Easter—
Blindness—on the Dawn—
Faint Star of Bethlehem—
Gone down!

Deep Time: The Tyranny of Time

 Deep Time: The Tyranny of Time

 To The Best Of Our Knowledge:

 When you're on the clock, you're always running out of time – because in our culture, time is money. The relentless countdown is making us and the planet sick. But clock time isn't the only kind. There are older, deeper rhythms of time that sustain life. What would it be like to live more in tune with nature's clocks? **Deep Time is a series all about the natural ecologies of time from To The Best Of Our Knowledge and the Center for Humans and Nature. We'll explore life beyond the clock, develop habits of "timefulness" and learn how to live with greater awareness of the many types of time in our lives. Original Air Date: June 03, 2023 Interviews In This Hour: How time came to rule our lives — and how we might free ourselves — The past and future of keeping time Guests: Jenny Odell, David Rooney Never want to miss an episode?
