Whole Earth Flashbacks

We celebrated the Whole Earth Catalog’s 50th Anniversary with many of its creators on October 13, 2018, at Fort Mason in San Francisco. The event was hosted by Stewart Brand, Ryan Phelan, Danica Remy and an amazing group of volunteers, including yours truly. At the event, we presented Whole Earth Flashbacks, a video history of this innovative culture, which I produced and edited with a wonderful group of 60 community contributors. Our half-hour video played all day long in their Gray Box multimedia theater.

In the evening, we played a shorter version of the Flashbacks video at the Cowell Theatre. I'm very grateful to all our core team on this project: Matisse Enzer, Phyllis Florin, Ahmed Kabil, David Lawrence, Jim McKee, and Susan Ryan, to name but a few.

The creative minds we featured in the video all had one thing in common: they gave access to tools and ideas to help people bring their dreams to life -- and change the world together. Many thanks to all the folks who organized and participated in this event! It was a wonderful way to honor a culture that helped change the world and that may inspire many others for years to come.
