The Integral Cinema Project is a research, production, and educational initiative that will explore the application of Integral Theory for cinematic media theory and practice. Integral Theory is an all-inclusive perceptual framework that draws on the key insights of the world’s greatest knowledge traditions and allows individuals, groups and organizations to bring new depth, clarity, effectiveness and compassion to every level of human endeavor — from unlocking individual potential to finding new approaches to global-scale problems.
The potential benefits of the Integral Cinema Project are:
Creation of more powerful and effective cinematic realities that could potentially induce transformative states and stimulate shifts in stages of human development and the evolution of consciousness
Creation of more fulfilling, healthy, efficient and cost-effective production workflows
Increased ability to target and reach desired audiences
Enhanced aptitude for comprehending and navigating the rapidly evolving and convergent cinematic media environment, from feature films and television to YouTube and interactive cinema
Fostering of a greater understanding of the cinematic medium itself
This passionate quest to explore the further reaches of film theory and practice is inspiring and holds great promise.
