Topics can include:
- Cosmogony, oneness, manuscripts, entropy (physics)
- Metamorphoses, yin-yang, evolution, biology (biotime)
- Life cycles, medicine, diet, exercise, medicine (human)
- Nonaction, space (ma), openness, stillness (philosophy, art)
- Culture, history, dynasties, linear vs. cyclical, (history)
- Calculation and measurements, astronomy, (calendrics)
- Circumstances, propensity, Yijing, the mean, synchronicity
- Destiny, fate calculation, astrology
- Reversal, alchemy, meditation, Laozi, ritual time
- Immortality, time travel, subjective time
AND MORE.
If you have something in this direction and would like to participate please let me know <liviakohn@gmail.com>. We hope for papers about 6-8000 words in length. Deadline would be the end of next year, Jan. 1, 2020.
If at all possible, but not necessary to contribute, come and present your work for discussion at the Daoist conference, late June in LA next year. See www.daoistconference.info.
