Writing from an alchemical perspective, he’s contributed scholarly articles, book and film reviews to print and online journals, including the Jung Journal, Reality Sandwich, and the Jungian Society of Scholarly Studies. His speaking engagements are alchemical, combining ideas from contemporary science with a treasure-trove of insights gleaned from ancient history. He has presented numerous seminars and workshops at prestigious organizations including Esalen Institute, the C. G. Jung Institute of Los Angeles, the Joseph Campbell Roundtable, the Vancouver Jungian Society, and most recently, the Jung-Lacan conference at St. John’s College, Cambridge University, UK. His workshops are a delightful mix of scholarship and performance art, including symbolic ritual mummification and culinary offeringsfrom recipes created by victims of the holocaust that demonstrate obscure alchemical principles, operations and procedures.
