『cocoRococo』から自分らしく・・・・ Yes,andでLife is Beautiful

OK.. The rest of the reflection from Day 2..

Presentation from David Mathew Prior.. using paperpoint!!

If your mind goes "Yes,but"... you are already paying attention to what you wanna deny.. in which way, you are not completely "YES" => Accepting the situation.

YES does not mean that you have to agree.. but it is more simple.. (or hard..)
YES is to accept or to appreciate.
You do not even have to say "YES".

Shake it!
Make it!
Take it! Personaly.... :)

Using your own personal story would make you and your audience/participants more connected.

The Anthropology of Improvised Theater by Brad Fortier from Oregon

This was a really intersting session to hear.
We saw how improvisation can be related to Human Revolution.

Empathy is the key for "connection"
- requires a theory of mind
- orders of intentionality
"I know that you know that I know that you know"
==> As you are grown, you get this through living and experiencing failures.
- emotional contagion
There are some lessons of Autism.

Mirror Neurons
=> Your body in my brain!
Route of learning
there are 44 musles on human face.
Actors as mirror neuron experts
The Machiavelliam mind
=>intentionality between people
social interaction

As Darwin said
"It is not the strongest of the species that survive nor the most intelligent but the most able to change"

Instead of reacting to the situation, try to create and be brave for change!

A mind for socializing
From the Early days,grooming is a root of socialization. but it worked only for a small group.
To be able to socialize, language was developed..
and to be able to use language as a communication tool, both right and left hemispheres of brain have been developed as well as neurons.

We can see Human Evolution through connection development.

Now we have facebook and twitter as social media. This is mass grooming!

You are always looking for "MUTUAL BOND".

Group mind/ Communitas is truly a synchronization of mind.

Meditation = top-down method
Ritual = bottom-up method

= We All Have Prejudices about other People:
How Can We Be Playful With Them? by Marjin Visser & Maartje van Amersfoort

『偏見』をもってしまうのは仕方ないこと。
This is for Diversity learning and find your own stereotype.

Playing the stereotype is usually shown exaggerated, and it is not a bad thing anymore but more like funny.
This is a same case for you to find your own Clown!

Exercise ;

mapping
meeting and greeting
7 people gives a key word one by one and other 7 people perform statue.
exaggerated Dutch / American / Japanese


There were more... but will reflect again when I have more time!
