The thought about the future occurs in the present

Can we continue to support evolution? Support through commitment to participating, though experiments, though discussion and examination and though each one's inner practice of waking up. How do we support evolution when every day is complete? And we must plan for the future?

What is a definition of improvisation? We make something in time and in space with what we already know. We use the tools we have. We let the environment be heard. Together with our tools and the environment something occurs....not planned, but true. Is this the mythogies of our species? What stories do we find in space?

We rehearse improvisation. Is that a crazy twist or sane training? Who is the director? I felt stuck at the Faculty OUt Front concert last Thursday. How do I direct in such a classic setting? It felt so awkward. I wanted to be in a different place, not stuck on the edge of the stage. Where is the place for the director's chair in a classical performing arena?

Does each person view the desolatedelight AUNT through their personal lens? Are the myths private to each one who watches? Is there a shared story somewhere?

What do we want to give?
