I previously mentioned on this blog the Gregory Bateson documentary An Ecology of Mind that was directed by Nora Bateson. This post is just a quick update, giving some additional sources.
There is a review of the documentary published in The Ecologist:
The Ecologist | An Ecology of Mind: film interprets a life of unconventional thought
The American Museum of Natural History has published a podcast of a conversation that was held at the museum on September 12, 2011:
The American Museum of Natural History | Podcast: An Ecology of Mind
Curator Laurel Kendall, chair of the Museum’s Division of Anthropology, introduces the filmmaker [Nora Bateson]. Joining the conversation are another daughter of Gregory Bateson, anthropologist and writer Mary Catherine Bateson; psychotherapist Mary Pipher; Lance Strate, president of the Media Ecology Association; Susan Oyama, professor of psychology at John Jay College; and Rex Weyler, co-founder of Greenpeace International.
