- Made possible by a grant from the National Endowment of the Arts, The Perpetual Dream is one of a three-part television series called Body and Spirit: A Survival Course in the Humanities. Completed in 1977, the series was based on the essays of Dr. C.P. Lee (Jacksonville University) and Jerry Dodge (Director of the Cummer Art Museum). In 1981-2, the series was expanded under a NEA program to provide video tapes and instructional guides to selected Florida community colleges and high schools.
This episode, based on an essay by Jacksonville University professor C.P. Lee, highlights the intricacies of the physical brain and seeks to explore the nature of the human mind and its search for knowledge. Beginning with man’s use of fire, it touches on various ways man has sought knowledge, from the search for the fountain of youth to the pursuit of alchemical sciences through the development of modern technology - and the ways that knowledge can be and has been misapplied.
