Processo y Analysis

Inputs:
Games of hula hoops at school.
Hula hoops – children’s’ game move your hips around with hula
School-- a space of Not Play, “mental faculty” rather than the body level.

Obstacles:
1.Weather -- May in PR is pretty hot, especially this year. And court yard of the school is cement. The reflection of the light makes the people blind.

2.Period of time -- this was during the final exams of the school and it was lunch time, they rather eat and relax, than play in the sun.

3.Familiarity of game – surprisingly, some people didn’t know how to play game, or never played before. Or they haven’t played for a while, had resistance, since it was a public place, so anyone can watch them playing badly.

4.Authority – people from office or professors didn’t want to participate. Some told me that it is their shape is not for the hoops.

5.Limitation of use of equipment of school property – camera, in the beginning, I could rent it only for one day, because the class was ending for the day time students, but I talked with Miguel who was in charge of equipment, that we, night students still have classes, so he gave me the permission to use video camera until end of the semester.

6.Limitation of my knowledge on recording and editing video – I learned very quickly but only basic stuffs to manage cut my first film!




And Energy moved on..

I changed time of the day, and different areas, and asked for help of my friend, to make people more involved.

Changing of the space more familiar with help was indeed great impact. Boosting of my confidence and we got to enjoy all together.

Night time, the temperature dropped has also great effect on people.
Some of them were tired, but through the move, fun, they were getting more energy .

Since this game is reminder of the childhood, made some of them easily transform to the childlike state of mind.
Most of them had fun memory with this game, rather than traumatic bad experience, this put them in a good mood as well.

Laughing, and involvement of playing it, transmuting, not only make you smart, they know that it will make them look good, or in the process.


Outputs: while changing the movement of the energy of the performance first outcome became an input for the second try.


Interaction:
Interaction between different public places doing the same performance makes totally different project.

Each time, there is different out comings, and from the previous project outcome, I approaches it differently as well.

Interactions between the people who are playing at makes, the space different, could be individual, group.

The chemical of the group changes when the actions were interrupting their previous settings of space. Therefore it generates different energy flow as outcome.

Contemplation:

While the action is oriented from the body movements, it invokes them to move their body not so familiar way, not everyday life movements, it also forces them, especially for adults, to break their mind set even to start to move the body.

Even though it is their childhood game and everyone knows, so it is easier to get involved than any other child like action in anytime, one needs break their mental frame first. Game helps to transform that easier. Some might not need to think first at all.

Through the practice, of body and mind and thoughts, in and out of different mental frames, we will all get more FLEXIBLE!!!! Not so rigid this can easily break.

All these yoga parishioners are practicing it for them to be more conductive to the energy, so that energy, especially the divine energy, can flow through their body, which is the instrument of the soul, and ultimately we can all connect to the soul, ourselves.

Recent science of Physics claims that all of the matters, in sub atomic level, are constantly oscillating, like a coil or strings.
Which, the spirals, and circles have been appearing on my drawings dominantly.
When one do, in my case, draws with unconscious status of mind, it takes to the place my mind cannot comprehend but to the truth.


Feedbacks:
Fun
Fun
Fun!!!!
Some of the students in art school asked me what is motivation of this action:
I explain them simple, very essential answer, that this exercise will make them more creative, also I am invading the spaces that are not so fun, with games to break the ice.

They wanted try at home as well of course!
So far, no injuries, no complaints I received.



Disciplines involved:

Yoga, Exercise, Toys and Games, Self-healing, Psychology and Art.


Video as a record of performance:
More or less I recorded entire happenings for less than 2 hours, and I cut them to 2 and half minute video in movie format to play in Quick time player.
