90 Minute Introductory Session

Background

The purpose of this design is to introduce The Art of Illumination that provides a glimpse in to the learning design and process. It uses a combination of the performances in the Opening and in The Practice of Embodying in order to provide the experiential context to set-up the key idea of collective virtuosity, and the individual and group activities. Please note that in this session design, the art-based process of free form calligraphy is used in order for participants to identify the practice of recognizing.

The objectives for this session are for participants to:

Apply the concepts underlying the workshop design to personal and organizational change opportunities
Apply the content to frame change opportunities with an emphasis on inner dynamics

Participants will know if they have achieved this objective when they go to The Art of Illumination wiki to access the design documentation, if they contact Mark Shimada for guidance and advice, and most importantly, if they use any of the content for themselves personally, or with internal or external opportunities.

Time	Content	Logistics/Process
00:00-00:35	OPENING Includes performance, transition and set-up.
00:35-01:30	INTRODUCING THE PRACTICE OF RECOGNIZING using calligraphy from The Practice of Embodying The reasoning for this is because calligraphy is easy to set up, not quite as expensive, and is also a unique arts-based process for participants to experience the practice of recognizing.
