Suspended Jump in the World Dance
And each time I touch the ground it is a different site.
The Creative Spirit as a prime motivator
The affordance of my work through various media is about understanding social systems and offered for its potential in inciting societal transformation. Another perspective is to consider its evolutionary learning process lead by art within the context of evolutionary systems design research.
Activated Body is a complementary instrument
I arouse and articulate perceptions of energy, information-knowledge-wisdom and creative spirit in sites worldwide. My latest major project is to support an ArtScience World Research Expedition as a learning family. We will visit creative communities worldwide. Using localized knowledge as a way of understanding, each individual and community explores its emergent potential to stimulate consciousness and contextualized it. We can design evolutionary social systems supporting this primary research work in self-organizing. The act of seeing, creating, and reflection is a basis to value its social utility. As a learning community we describe and assess our work in its contextual and systemic paths. The praxis of perceiving and assembling constructive imagery locally defines the inter-relational boundaries of consciousness through the process of sequential imagery (i.e. as in series). This is a synchronizing event and in its more advanced forms allows you to live in syntony.
Reflective Mind as a moist apparatus
The esthetic, human, social, and technological elements I bring forth are optimum requirements for the creative expression of our integrated vision. The manifestation of consciousness itself is evolved in each relationship's process within each work. Imagery, in its site-specific context and the mind's reflexive processes therefore simulate consciousness. The wealth derived is a visible and sensorial language of consciousness if you allow yourself an imaginative future.
The Dance of art and community
Two entwined areas, millennia old, form the general context of this my work (of which the presented portfolio is only one aspect): the practice of art and the role of learning communities. The first emphasizes a creative process and the second identifies social design. Artists (psycho-personal/socio-cultural interpreters), scientists (bio-physical pattern witnesses), technologists (process-structural innovators) and indigenous peoples (mindful of nature's spirit and ethical behavior) living in smaller communities previously collaborated in integrated ways to sustain themselves. It could be argued that one person could serve these various roles. In time, these roles became specialized duties dedicated to different individuals. Present day arts, science, technology and spiritual community collaboration lays the groundwork for an equitable partnership in development of an intentional community. Specific here is the development of a collaborative work environment in an artistic, scientific and indigenous community. Ideas and actions are reflected in an open space of learning through its practitioners' synergy while working. Both ideas of learning communities and the practice of art (along with its supportive ways of knowing) are the basis to form a global learning community network to explore transdisciplinary and evolutionary notions.
