Where will you be when the 5,125 year Long Count Calendar of the Classical Maya ends on December, 21, 2012? Will you be hiding in an underground cave from global cataclysm and magnetic polar reversal? Will you be entering a multidimensional realm of hyperspace triggered by mass activation of the pineal gland? Will you be picking up the pieces of a ruined world or dancing the night away at the party at the end of time?
Considering that nobody knows what’s going to happen in 2012, the end of the Mayan Calendar functions as a tremendously intriguing meme upon which we can project our hopes and fears, dreams and desires. Hollywood has now offered up a massive collective shadow projection in the form of a $250 million disaster epic that takes the aesthetics of annihilation to a new pitch of perfection. Paradoxically, this doom-riddled blockbuster could create a great opening to offer an alternative vision of what 2012 could be for our planet. Potentially, 2012 could represent the coming-to-consciousness of the human species, in which we take responsibility for our role as agents of conscious evolution.
A rising grassroots movement now realizes we can no longer expect
governments, corporations, or any outside authority to create the beautiful
world we long to live in. We have to do it ourselves. This growing network
of Evolvers, Burners, Bioneers, Transition Towners, and others are
developing new cooperative networks that can help heal our planet while
providing sustainable solutions to the disastrously unsustainable economic
and political systems that disempower people, keeping them asleep.
For this month’s Spore, over thirty cities will host conversations on 2012
and the evolution of consciousness, including “counter-screenings” to Sony
Pictures’ “2012” world-catastrophe film. We will preview a portion of
Mangusta Productions upcoming feature-length documentary “2012: Time for
Change,” directed by Joao Amorim and starring “2012” author Daniel
Pinchbeck, along with a section of Disinfo’s DVD “2012: Science our Superstition,” produced by Gary Baddeley. Also, bestselling author John Major Jenkins will give a short video presentation for those participating in the Spores. Afterward, we will discuss indigenous prophecies and global transformation, and how to prepare ourselves and our communities for rapid changes to come.
GUEST SPEAKERS:
Joe McFall & Raymond Wiley (Disinformation)
Adam Weaver (Evolver Atlanta)
Music and mingling will follow the discussion, to celebrate an amazing first year of Evolver Atlanta!

“2012: Science or Superstition”: Countless books and websites, magazine
articles and newspaper headlines debate 2012’s meaning, with enthusiasts in
two camps: those forecasting apocalypse–the end of time–and those who see a
coming renewal, a rebirth of consciousness. How much of what we're hearing
is science and how much is superstition? In this film the leading
researchers, writers and scientists in the field tell us exactly what this
date means to them, why it's important, and what we should expect. Featured
in the film are Graham Hancock, John Major Jenkins, Daniel Pinchbeck,
Alberto Villoldo, Anthony Aveni, Robert Bauval, Jim Marrs, Walter
Cruttenden, Lawrence E. Joseph, Alonso Mendez, Douglas Rushkoff, John
Anthony West and Benito Vegas Duran.
