About The Event
We are thrilled to celebrate the release of Tyson Yunkaporta's astonishing and profound new book, Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World. It's so incredible we made it our September Book of the Month!
Tyson will be in conversation with Evelyn Araluen.
About the Book
This remarkable book is about everything from echidnas to evolution, cosmology to cooking, sex and science and spirits to Schrödinger’s cat.
Tyson Yunkaporta looks at global systems from an Indigenous perspective. He asks how contemporary life diverges from the pattern of creation. How does this affect us? How can we do things differently?
Sand Talk provides a template for living. It’s about how lines and symbols and shapes can help us make sense of the world. It’s about how we learn and how we remember. It’s about talking to everybody and listening carefully. It’s about finding different ways to look at things.
