Synchronicities:
We compare how fans of old resurface recently in our
respective lives, compare
how the triangle of authority
is turned upside down, how
writing workshops, mine of
70's, Ariane’s beginning now,
of self publishing possibilities
& being published at same time,
create distant embodied
experience & counter developed
speech in real embodied
experience. Practicing these
rich diversities are not dualities,
but two sides of one face,
yin yang, sides of the brain.
We talk about:
coordination of these in the embodied learning teaching unlearning Unteaching experience.
If I Try writing another unlearning learning poem again & again from the same first set-out sentence,
each writing turns out very differently.
Ariane’s website is stated as an action learning site.
I put up a new website on my Jonathan Todd experience in Lyons Oct 17th, it is a work in progress, OK’d by my advisor. The work does not have to be completed, if I share the process.
My process is organizing, unveiling to the town, first in all day workshops & 6 site visits, then the report that came in, municipal protocols for timing discussions, voting and scheduling with JTED.
For good reasons on both our ends, reception matures, conception matures. Time thought reflects how it sits growing in us, how there is synchronicity in our wanting to stack our 2 OPs 8&9 near each other for similar flow.
The parallels: waiting for Jonathan's report, the need to finish linking, writing, fanning material as a better management system, our websites set-up as an ordered superimposed look. I simplify by choice of page style, select to get succeedingly more spare, yet am gravitating back to iconic shapes inserted between documents, photos & reportage, the way I loved from outset a year ago.
i-web is being pulled from Apple tools, & insiders working at the store say we have to wait for a cliff-hanging find of what substitute can continue to design our pages on our mac computers. Val for me & Ethan for you, advise from the GU core, see how deficiencies add power to the ‘empower’ for us, as GU wills us out into the world somehow raw & cooked at the same time.
I’m collecting these skype chats as record of initial skype-call thoughts to review later. My morning brainstorm is a description of how I heal myself (for OP9), played into Photo Booth for collaborative work we will do. I present to you, Ariane, some (art)-ifacts I’ve gathered for the show & tell. Here’s my sea bluegreen 1986 handmade-paper rattle, a sketch of the tip of the pyramid turned down to the bottom, putting people power base at the top, taking back our democracy, or what’s left of it, still in its infancy. Awaiting are mushroom extracts, i-water, stevia & a concoction of lanolin, Apricot oil & tea tree oil to moisturize aging skin staged for the demo.

We both need supports to heal the technological equipment that sends radiation our way.
Am thinking how much time I spend fixing what's broken: computers, software, & outputting devices.
And for superimposed changes of languaging to regenerate like Green Revolution’s assaults on life's basic water, air, commons & self-organization of nature stripped away. There are limits to restoration now co-opted by Personhood ordinance. We counter with permaculture whole systems.
I know the slow, sink & store triple S ‘motto’. Life itself is to be learned from the same slow sink & store in our bodies. Compromised skin stops breathing (ingesting or inhaling toxic substances into our organs). Jeffrey Smith author of Seeds of Deception & Genetic Roulette sends an 11-minute exercise for changing consciousness of a large group of people.
Until 9:50am Mt time, My plan is to get more ready files into i-web page chapters of OP8.
Coming back check in:
Ariane: radio talk about art, an interview with British art critic about being an art critic in Rauschenburg days of art students still doing Duchamp. joseph Campbell’s “artists are the prophets of their time”, now us stepping out into permaculture, could have been artists then, use earthen materials, & people care like meeting jean Houston, where artists go into society.
The piece Ariane is working on with Val doesn't even realize artists have those thoughts- sensitive. It’s a slipping out, inserting distilled into words creating a landscape with our bodies. I resonate with Ariane’s understanding of the meeting up of Permaculture Science & Art. I think of the way Art has become the concentration of anything meaningful. in Science the blur is confounding. To those not tutored in Art, only in Science, the Artist can understand scientist’s detail, process is similar.
[12/7/11 10:06:53 AM] Coco Gordon notes: Ariane’s labyrinths in NY. Wishing, if only non profit board meetings could walk the labyrinth- alot to be said to change restricted structures & formula for simple concept of how we work in respective metiers. This is how you do it as a board of a company & this is how alliterations, homologies of the world lean towards exploring things out of order, this is actually a very creative approach.
[12/7/11 10:16:26 AM] Coco Gordon: artist holding complex sets of ideas & projects, how they go together when one is emerging, in an intuitive re-ordering.
[12/7/11 10:19:47 AM] Coco Gordon: More synchronicities our common friend: Mamma Donna Henes who does eggs on end in huge plaza, the effects of no gravity time at the solstice & Equinox. Who says an artist needs to be categorized as deserving only a MA in Art not MA in Science?
[12/7/11 10:20:03 AM] Coco Gordon: made date for Jan 21st solstice same time.
