We’re rebooting the Sydney Chapter of The Zeitgeist Movement! It’s been a while, and we’re now in a process of re-engaging with the old community of Geisters, and looking forward to having it grow, and create events and projects together.

This meetup will focus on discussing what’s next for the chapter, and get a sense of where we’re at, what has been happening recently in the Zeitgeist Movement and Resource-Based Economy/Natural Law arenas, and begin planning what’s next for us as a chapter.

We count with the support of the rest of the Australian TZM chapters, and they’re excited about our comeback. Looking forward to seeing you all!

Melbourne Zeitgeisters!

This is the next instalment in our monthly documentary series. Even if you’ve seen the doco being screened, the doco night is a great chance to see how the issues and material presented relates to the movement, have a general chat and get involved.

PART 1 (and maybe part 2 if we get time and kick off on time) of a 5 part series. COUNTER INTELLIGENCE – SHINING A LIGHT ON BLACK OPERATIONS 

by Scott Noble (Psywar, Human Resources)

“An extraordinary work by a gifted filmmaker, ‘Counter-Intelligence’ shines sunlight into the darkest crevices of empire run amok. The film vividly exposes a monstrous and unconstitutional ‘deep state’ in which multiple competing chains of command — all but one illegal — hijack government capabilities and taxpayer funds to commit crimes against humanity in our name. Anyone who cares about democracy, good government, and the future will want to watch all five segments of this remarkable film.”

– Robert David STEELE Vivas: Former CIA Officer, USMC

Come together to hang out, chat, plan projects or events, meet interesting people, brainstorm together and empower each other. Caution – very casual setting Lafe Charlton has worked in and around the Brisbane Theatre scene for over 20 years and we are stoked to have him on board hosting our first ever THEATRE workshop from about 7PM! Come along if you are keen to develop some new skills through some fun activities like role plays, theatre exercises and maybe even a poetry recital. This is a fun way to increase your confidence when on stage and/or in the center of attention and a great way to develop your public speaking skills also! If you’re more musically inclined, bring along an instrument and there shall be some jammin on the back deck upstairs! We will also have the social and creative table happening as usual, so feel free to bring any creative projects to work on – we will provide basic arts supplies and paper to bring out those inner children we keep locked up way too much! See you there!!

Future Thinkers Sessions for the Zeitgeist Movement Australia

SCIENCE – TECHNOLOGY – NATURE – SUSTAINABILITY

An open platform to meet and chat with other ‘self-proclaimed’ controversial deep thinkers, scientists and philosophers… basically anyone who likes to think about anything.

This month, we’re fortunate enough to have Jonathan Ersser, creator of the Freewill website and a proactive and empowering deep-thinker to host the event.

Casey will be away in Melbourne for the Zeitgeist Australia meetup so is unable to attend.

Future Thinkers is a realistic, fun and empowering meet-up about applying science to social concern. Don’t worry, we don’t put you on the spot… there’s no expectation to explain your position, and no expectation of any qualification. It’s not in our ‘cynical yet idealistic, atheist, technocratic anarchistic activist’ nature.

We provide…

• Short presentations on human behaviour, society, new crazy technologies and cool ideas for hacking life!!

• Study groups and panel discussions on philosophical questions like “How do we engage people resistant to logic and reason?” or “Does wealth provide happiness?”

• Awesome socially-aware music, podcasts and radio shows

• Insightful and hilarious pointed videos for social concern

Please feel free to sit at the back and hide in the corner, or announce your opinion of some particular policy, or share your understanding of a scientific discovery or discuss your general thoughts on a particular topic. We’d love that. We look forward to meeting you!
