President's Welcome
Welcome to our second semester of events. As you will see in the Program,
we have a great selection of speakers and films. Please note that we have changed
the venue to the Hew Robert Lecture Theatre in the UWA annex, as the construction
at Mary Lockett made it virtually inaccessible.
We begin the season with the final in the series of films by Marie-Louise von Franz,
The Way of the Dream.
In August we are delighted to have Perth Storyteller Horst
Kernberger speaking on The Power of Stories. He will be discussing how myths shape
whole cultures and stories influence every aspect of our lives.
In September we are showing footage from two important films from the Ashville Jung
Centre, called Symbols and Individuation in Global Politics. They look at how our
current political splits between Islam and the West have developed, and
include an excerpt from a soon to be released Australian film on how the United
States and President Obama became embroiled in specific unconscious forces.
In October we are very pleased to announce that Dr David Tacey will be returning
to Perth to conduct a series of lectures entitled Gods and Diseases.
In November, following the AGM, we will be showing The World Within CG Jung In
His Own Words. Prior to the showing and after the AGM we will have a light
supper to celebrate the conclusion of another successful season. We thank
everyone for their support and participation this year and hope that you will all
come along to the AGM.
I look forward to seeing you at the films and lectures, sharing a delicious
cup of T2 and having a chat.
Brittain Garrett
President 2011
