What's the dilio? Idilio here....
Today's initial exercises were very interesting because at
first I thought we were going to have a lesson on the role an MC takes during a
performance. The rest of the exercises shaped an unknown phenomenon, the
thinking of the unthinkable. I thought it was very interesting how we were
using the pipe as an element to explore new ideas within our stories and maybe
even think of different directions the story could take and still telling the
story. All this week we have been exploring how to find connectors, within our
conversations, our stories, our performances and even the world that shapes us
to be who we are. Lastly, even though I have not selected a story yet for
Friday I found the flash cards exercise very helpful to map ideas to connect
our stories to one that we don't use in particularly.
Bill Lepp was very
exciting but not as exciting to hear him share after his show! Thank you David
for asking him the questions we are discussing in class and to get his
perspective on them. Once again I got out of it to stay true to ourselves and
loved his advice about creating a character if we want to incorporate messages
that may be harsh to listen to. See you guys tommorrow cause I'm kind of sleepy
now.
Thanks Idilio - finding connections is a core value of mine. As we discover relatedness among ideas, events, information, and people, we expand our understanding and awareness in many directions. As we have often heard in discussion, some of our present troubles seem to stem from the malaise of disconnection.
