Event Details

The Sydney Symposium ʻSYNERGIES - New Consciousness for our Futureʼ is an event where people from all walks of life can get together with professionals from the worlds of Art and Science, lateral and spiritual thinkers, to engage in discussion and to foster contacts; to stimulate a positive and creative thought process.
We live in one of the most tumultuous and exciting times in human history. With our cultural, political, economic, environmental and spiritual systems colliding and breaking down and the loss of meaning and value in the wake of the scientific revolution, it is difficult to predict what the world might be like even a few years from now.
Our thinking so far has been predominantly lineal and will have to adjust by adopting to a more holistic way of thinking moving forward. If we intend to recreate our world on humanistic lines, we must not allow our fascination with technological advances to neglect our cultural commitment. We must therefore open paths to ethically based decision-making and a new perception of values.

Themes: Where have we been, where are we going, and how are we going to get there? How should we relate to the uncertainty that defines our global landscape? How are we to bridge the gap between Art, Science and Consciousness? And how can we individually and collectively create a better future?

The Sydney Symposium ʻSYNERGIES - New Consciousness for our Futureʼ is determined to be a source and inspiration of cultural and new values. It aims to bring together all those forces capable of triggering the process of change necessary to ensure that our future is a positive one.

Note: Due to the limited seating available for this event, reservations are mandatory for admission. Please be mindful and send the organiser an email if you need to cancel your booking. Friday and Saturday have different venues. The main Symposium on Friday will be at the Chauvel Cinema and the post symposium Workshops on Saturday will be at the Meditation Space.
