+ | ====Notes on arriving, landing, sensing, attuning...==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | FoAM's landing practices | ||
+ | * greeting, giving thanks, a hesitant approach and entrance, asking permission (like a guest arriving to a host's home) | ||
+ | * noticing and attunement (using practices from e.g. meditation, personal/ | ||
+ | * looking for resonances and disturbances (inner & outer) - awareness of the effects the environment has on us & vice versa | ||
+ | * getting to know our hosts and their concerns and needs - with humans this usually involves informal conversations over food / drinks; with other entities a non-verbal, more somatic exchange (sometimes including being bitten/ | ||
+ | * field trips (direct experience of places at different speeds & conditions... - e.g road trip, hiking, meandering, abiding still, etc.), incl. attempts at decyphering the environment using our senses and instruments, | ||
+ | * learning journeys with different stakeholders - informal conversations in the places of concern with people (and other entities) who are personally invested in the places/ | ||
+ | * if appropriate: | ||
+ | * when appropriate we design specific interventions (as a gift, or a response to the hosts' need or request) | ||
+ | * why? -> "For the things we have to learn before we can do, we learn by doing." | ||
+ | * what? usually some form of suggestive or immersive experiences (eg. soundwalks, dinners, multisensory installations, | ||
+ | * how? usually through some form of action research, futurecrafting / | ||
+ | |||
+ | What is our role as guests/ | ||
+ | * what can we offer? | ||
+ | * seeing the situation through fresh eyes (appreciation, | ||
+ | * an opportunity (or excuse) for the locals to take time out from their habitual activities and experience familiar places with new people | ||
+ | * share how we experience the situation | ||
+ | * challenge: finding the right balance between being and doing, between inspiring/ | ||
+ | * etc. | ||
