Spacetime Saints and Princess Leia Wisdom
from Echoes for Angela Hosted by Ryan MacLean
Season 3, Episode 30 What if history is bigger than what we can see from where we are right now? In this episode of Echoes for Angela, we explore “re-membering”: the idea that discovering history is not the same as creating it. Beginning with Minkowski spacetime and the block universe, we move through the philosophy of “I, here, now,” the actionable present, divine self-location, and the Catholic theology of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. St. Teresa of Ávila shows how presence can come before recognition. St. Jerome shows how truth can be recovered faithfully through imperfect channels. Carrie Fisher reminds us how memory, perspective, humor, and action can transform our relationship to what has already happened. We even ask what all of this could teach artificial intelligence about memory, relationships, salience, and knowing what matters now. Made for Angela, because sometimes the biggest ideas are really about something simple: remember, recognize, love, and act now.
