The Ark launches into 2024 with a meme deal, and we shuffle the electronic deck to reflect on the forces moving in the world in this Year of the Dragon. What kind of things can we expect this year, given the patterns of history? Does civilization work like a machine, or do the relationships between people make or break events?

What is in store for the malls and markets of the world in the current global conflict over control and access to the Red Sea shipping lane? How long will the mythology of the American Empire hold up when its Pax Americana no longer has a navy to control the seas?

Luke 1:26-38

Mosaic Ark ·

2023/12/14

The Ark is celebrating Advent season with a meditation on the reason for the season. So, is Christmas really paganism turned into a Christian holiday? The Professor reads from the third Advent homily of the Venerable Bede, the great English scholar and creator of Anglo-Saxon history. What did Bede understand about the significance of trees in the Christian world? And why did our Saviour come through a Burning Bush in Palestine, and not as a Godzilla-sized Messiah to stomp out the evil from the

Schantz (scientist and author of The Wise of Heart, The Hidden Truth, and The Art & Science of Ultrawideband Antennas) joins us to discuss the Enlightened world of Sir Francis Bacon, Science and the cult of Scientism. How do our idols influence our ability to find or see truth?

Professor Fulton Brown reads Umberto Eco’s The Name of the Rose, in the hope of recovering the pleasure she had at being in on the mystery in graduate school, but what she learns is that things are not necessarily what they seem when someone insists the rose has no name. —Streamed November 30, 2023

Mind-hacking, Magic, and Meaning

Mosaic Ark ·

2023/11/23

The Ark welcomes our guest Patrick Coffin aboard once more to talk about the art of direction! The DCR poets sit back to enjoy some of Patrick's mentalist card effects and the synchronicities between stories and magic. How does the structure of the story of Joseph show God's miraculous direction of history and the misdirection of Pharaoh's magicians? Can we find the theme of redemption through tragedy in Joseph’s tale of ascension in Egypt? Is the Trinity a magic trick, or is the Incarnation of God

The Mosaic Ark

The Ark reflects on grammar and meaning as DCR finally rewrites the website to clarify our identity as poets and what we do. It was hard. So imagine how hard it is to describe the Incarnation of Christ. In this episode the Professor and the Pigeon invite you to enter the Mosaic Ark and experience a Medieval and mystical experience of the Scriptures: the Holy Bible as a kaleidoscope. How does the Virgin Mary completely change the way Christians see the story of Creation and the Incarnation? What does

The Ark returns for part two of our meditation on Jesus Christ Superstar, in the wake of the war that has broken out between Israel and Palestine. After watching confusing scenes of revellers partying at a festival on the Gaza border which was reported to have turned into massacre, we ask why is the Holy Land so important for imperial powers that this place seems eternally conflicted?Will the dance floor of the empires ever find peace?

Superstar

Mosaic Ark ·

2023/10/05

The professor and the pigeon meditate on the 1973 film version of Jesus Christ Superstar, and like the artists who made the movie, attempt to explain Christ to the Modern world. Was it blasphemous to show the gospel through the perspective of Judas, or was it a revelation of man's response to the Gospels in the modern world? Join us as we ask exactly who is Jesus Christ and why it's so hard to say why we love Him. —Streamed October 4, 2023

The Ark hosts a vigil for Kilts’s dead roosters, who died valiantly protecting their hens from the now infamous fox. So what happens in a world without roosters guarding the flock? In this episode the Professor and her grieving Goth challenge the audience to look at the mirror image of their own understanding, starting with the Barbies who have not been 'liberated' but have in fact simply been surviving the collapse of patriarchy. We take a turn towards the early church, and how the patriarchy of

Conch Wars

Mosaic Ark ·

2023/09/14

The Ark continues its meditations from Atomic Myths to reflect on the Conch Wars of Cancel Culture. Pausing to reflect on their meeting in Milo's Telegram chat room in a Lord of the Flies frenzy over who holds the conch, RFB expands on the power of speech over group behaviour. How does rhetoric influence people to go to war for Empire, as happened in Rome? Do the stories people tell about the imperial border wars really hold up against the reality of empire? Join us to see why stories set the course

Atomic Myths

Mosaic Ark ·

2023/09/07

The Professor muses on her origin story in New Mexico’s enchanted land—the isthmus between the Anglo and Hispanic and native American cultures, and the border between the Holy Virgin and Oppenheimer’s bomb. What did the atomic explosion do to the imagination of the West? Does the theory of relativity have Westerners captivated in relativism and incapable of claiming that there is only one Truth? Could the Incarnation of God in Christ be the cure to the fear that was conjured at the Trinity Site in

“What Was I Made For?”

Mosaic Ark ·

2023/08/24

The Ark pauses to reflect on the Professor’s post-Barbie realization that the Millennials are enduring a special kind of trauma. In the Roe v Wade Western world, every baby born was approved by somebody's choice. But what does this decision mean for Millennials who grew up wondering what they were made for? How has that generation developed in the knowledge that they were created "on demand"? Join us to reflect on the Millennial Mind, and what must happen to make life again. —Streamed August

The Ark wants to party like Barbie again, this time with Ken! Our second part of this movie analysis takes the Professor and the Pigeon into the layers of the sexual roles depicted in the film. We talk sexual tension and competition in the Kendom, the hidden Theosophy of Barbieland, the failed relationship between Ken and Barbie, and how Lego proved the difference between how boys and girls play with their toys. Could it be that Ken wasn't Kenough and the film totally failed the Kens? Let's play
