Or creating something new together.</p> <p>But in most cases there is a HUGE problem in the exchange of meaning between people. Meanings are similar but not identical. Which can be a real problem if people get to focus on just their own meaning.</p> <p>But if done right, it can also lead to something new.</p>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/10608276273http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/10608276273Sat, 24 Sep 2011 21:26:30 +0200David Bohmcommunicationdialogueinformationmeaning<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ls123ajBz91qhdbroo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/10594734559http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/10594734559Sat, 24 Sep 2011 14:58:14 +0200sunsetwaterphotoArchitecturenature<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ls11aqmEC21qg07spo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>By <a target="_blank" href="http://www.stuckincustoms.com/2011/08/14/the-towering-rice-field/">Trey Ratcliff</a></p>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/10594126278http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/10594126278Sat, 24 Sep 2011 14:28:02 +0200chinarice fieldnaturephotographyphoto<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lr56sr7FyZ1qlgf3io1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9929062808http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9929062808Wed, 07 Sep 2011 22:49:00 +0200citiescloudssunsunrayssunsets““The artist is not a person endowed with free will who seeks his own ends, but one who allows art to realize its purposes through him.

Such an attitude would make true dialogue possible, in which all participants are in the creative ‘middle ground’ between the extremes of ‘perfection’ and ‘imperfection’. In this ground, a fundamental transformation could take place which goes beyond either of the limited extremes and includes the sociocultural dimension.”<br/><br/> - <em>David Bohm in Science, Order and Creativity</em>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9625070908http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9625070908Wed, 31 Aug 2011 14:56:05 +0200humanDavid Bohmscienceordercreativityperfectiontransformationdialogueculture<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpxgwhDdMf1qcijlyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9129876938http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9129876938Fri, 19 Aug 2011 20:26:24 +0200cloudsskysunrayssun<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lq4wff91SN1r0k7t4o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9129708959http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9129708959Fri, 19 Aug 2011 20:21:24 +0200SunsetSunraysSunlightCloudsNightDuskNature<p><img src="http://img.scoop.it/5YYmaViIGFYsKndX11X3Rzl72eJkfbmt4t8yenImKBXEejxNn4ZJNZ2ss5Ku7Cxt"/></p>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9125164350http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/9125164350Fri, 19 Aug 2011 18:03:00 +0200naturephotophotographysunmountain<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5dxTqbJxGwE?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p><strong>An Aesthetic Experience</strong></p> <p>“An aesthetic experience is one in which your senses are operating at their peak. When you are present in the current moment. When you are resonating with the excitement of this thing that you are experiencing. When you are fully alive.</p> <p>An an-aesthetic is when you shut your senses off, and deaden yourself to what is happening.</p> <p>We are getting our children through education by anaesthetizing them. We should be doing the exact opposite. We should not be putting them to sleep. We should be waking them up to what they have inside of themselves.”<br/><br/>- Ken Robinson </p>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/8990054660http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/8990054660Tue, 16 Aug 2011 10:15:56 +0200ken robinsonaestheticsanaestheticeducationvideobach<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpl4fsnaGt1qc76t1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/8943336598http://mindstructures.tumblr.com/post/8943336598Mon, 15 Aug 2011 08:35:00 +0200mountainsunflowerscloudsskynaturesunrays“Science is organized knowledge.
