“Dustin Kuhns’ words, written and spoken, are earthy, spiritual poetry. A dense papier-mâché holds them together.
Originally steeped in the history of humanity and its culture, he’s flavored by powerful minds from other times and places. Now an independent philosopher and a theologian, the only thing he is certain of is the uncertainty of universal life. The most inspiring moments in humanity occur when the world wakes up and sees its idols and technologies anew. Lately, his writing focuses broadly on how art and spirituality can pave new ways for politics, media and technology to advance in our ‘post-modern’ age.
In this season of rapid change, Dustin hopes that the human spirit is able to withdraw from the apocalyptic scene—to recreate, reinvigorate, and reclaim the space of the human spirit hijacked by the imperial and colonial spectacle of late capitalism. Otherwise, we will continue to be caught off guard, perpetually off-balance and catching our fall. Evolution in her complexity can spiral backwards, downwards, forward, upward, inward or outward. It can hold us together or rip us apart.”
Beauty built our world; beauty can save us from ourselves.”
From the desk of Dustin Kuhns
To the sane and passionate; the purposeful teams and unprecedented artists,
You want to build a better world (me too.) So where do social media strategies and engagement schemes fit in this “better world” when we see how much harm can be done? As a forward-thinking small to medium sized non-profit, art program or social enterprise, you’re skeptical of traditional “CMO” or “marketing consulting” services but you know you need something…
You need:
—strategic leadership willing to dive deep into your vision and mission, without the financial commitment of a full-time executive staff member.
—hard-working, progressive creativity that measures up to your own positive impact goals.
—thoughtful expertise to discern progressive engagement and content strategies that don’t undermine the future you’re building.
How will you do your paradigm-shifting work without paradigm-shifting, creative and communication strategies?
