“The Tipping Point”, facilitated by Jodi Netzer and created by The Conscious Collective, is a multi-disciplinary performance and interactive public forum which demystifies the process of creating successful environmental, cultural, political, and highly-spirited movements. This collaborative project is inspired by Malcolm Gladwell's bestseller "The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference". In this book, Gladwell explains that ideas, trends, and social behaviors become popular in the same way that epidemics develop. Another literary inspiration for this project is John Zerzan's "The Psychology of Mass Misery”, which discusses the phenomenon of how and when psychosis becomes the norm within the status quo. The performance and forum will demonstrate interconnectivity, discover creative ways to sustainably prevent global climate change and injustice, and inspire the transformation of negative mental/emotional environments into holistically healthy local and global communities. This project will also dispel assumptions about overwhelming and “impossible” goals to directly impact our communities and public policy on a larger and more effective scale. The ideas that arise from the public forums will be collected and then redistributed to the audiences from both performances.
The performance features The Conscious Collective, an evolving project-to-project based collaborative group created and facilitated by Jodi Netzer.
