Emergent Culture
Site Orientation
WELCOME TO EMERGENT CULTURE
Emergent-Culture.Com (EC.Com) is organized in the form of an online book and magazine blog. EC.Com tells a story about humanity as a whole and of its journey up to the present moment.
It’s a big-picture perspective where I view humanity as a single super-organism emerging from the darkness of ignorance and into the light of knowing itself as single entity. It’s a story about where we’ve been, where we are, and where we might go.
I’ve spent the last 26 years studying the world humans have created and the humans the universe has created. The contents of this site are a record of my ongoing studies as I have come to understand the human-planetary condition from a whole systems perspective.
For more information about Emergent-Culture.com, it’s philosophy, mission and its founder please visit our about page.

Anticipating Personal and Collective Shifts in Relation to MMAC Time Science
The word shift is commonly used in reference to the motifs associated with the 2012-“End of the Mayan Calendar” phenomena (2012-MC). The expectations of those most realistically attuned to the mytho-symbolic significances of 2012-MC sense that there are large scale socio-cultural shifts in the works. Emergent-Culture.com is essentially dedicated to the planet wide socio-cultural movement (planetary culture) that I believe lies at the heart of the “co-incidence” between the end of the 5125 year Maya Long Count Cycle and the unprecedented levels of socio-economic turbulence seen all around the world.
The notion of mere “coincidence” is dispelled once one understands what the Ancient Mesoamericans (Maya, Toltecs, Olmecs, etc) discovered about the nature of time and reality. I use the the term Ancient Mesoamericans because precolumbian Mesoamerica was home to upwards of 80 different tribes and most followed the same calendrical system. Additionally the Maya were not the first to use the core of the Mesoamerican calendrical system—-the tzolkin cycle. Although they were the ones who developed Mesoamerican calendrics to its highest degree. I also prefer to use Ancient Mesoamericans because it helps differentiate between present day Mesoamericans and those who lived in Middle America prior to the European invasion.
Since it was the ancient ones who were responsible for the development of Maya-Meso-American Calendrical system. (MMAC)
And What is Time?
In the Western world time is a very muddled concept. Western science is only now beginning to acknowledge that their classical conception of time is ill defined, overcomplicated and just plain wrong. Have a look at Wikipedia’s treatment of time to get a taste of what I mean. Time has been so misunderstood that Western scholars have written entire books about the subject without reaching any kind of conclusion or consensus about what time is.
Those of you familiar with my writings on time and Mesoamerican calendrics (calendar/time science) know that from my vantage point, time is nothing more than movement and that’s how the Ancient MesoAmericans (AMA) saw it as well. Albeit a special kind of movement.Something I call ordered movement. There are various definitions of time and many are useful, but I’m talking about time in the most fundamental of terms. Time is not the fourth dimension as Einstein believed.[…]
[NOTE: The foregoing paragraphs serve as an introduction to a chapter on my developing book on The Legend of 2012. The remaining text below this note is the tail end of the chapter where I show how one may apply MMAC time science to one’s life in order to anticipate significant personal life events, and as a way to self validate what I consider to be the most profound and universally relevant cosmology (worldview) presently available. It is universally relevant because it applies to everyone regardless of whether one believes in it or not. It is universally relevant because it’s a mesocosmically scaled cosmology and that means that you don’t need to understand equations or use special tools to observe and appreciate, e,g. microscope, telescope.
The chapter goes on to develop the idea of time as ordered movement/change and of how the earth’s basic movements translate into the scheduled and sequential movements of all organisms. The mechanism is detailed down to the DNA molecular level in an attempt to show how all of life unfolds to the beat of some cosmic piper. The piper’s “musical score” is intrinsic to the earth’s movements, the workings of DNA code and all human activity in general. I suggest that the Ancient Mesoamericans discerned the cosmic score from their study of astronomical and earthly cycles both overt and subtle. Some cycles are so subtle that no other culture discovered them. The most subtle of these cycles were encoded into their Tzolkin cycle calendar.
I also relate the tzolkin and genetic codes and then show their relationship to the implicate and explicate orders that the Physicist David Bohm describes in his Holomovement cosmology. This article focuses on a particular type of movement we call a shift or transition. These shifts happen at predictable time scales because the growth and development of all organisms happen according to timing constants built into the very fabric of our reality. It seems that the AMA discovered those constants. The following excerpt tells you how to apply those constants.] click here to read entire article
