trying to figure out the influence (if any) of Whitehead’s ontology on Bateson’s Naven. Slightly overwhelmed. Or is it too much coffee?

So it seems most academics are less scared of being kidnapped & beheaded by ISIL than they are of their Heads of Department

I was so excited to sign up for an academic delegation to Rojava but it’s been postponed for scheduling reasons (too close to term)
