World Could Be Otherwise
Larry Smith, "Review: The World Could Be Otherwise: Imagination and the Bodhisattva Path," New York Journal of Books, April 2019.
We are so obsessed now with data – facts and information. [This preoccupation] gives us the illusion that we know what is going on. To me, the world as we usually see it lacks imagination. We have relegated imagination to ‘content’ for ‘platforms’ – in other words, a tool for generating a harmless, entertaining commodity. But imagination is much more radical than this: our lack of real imagination is killing us.
