So it finally rained properly and I realized I had to finish writing Day (4) post before things piled up and I lose moral resolve!
But then I got on the bus, and a two minutes delay in pressing the stop button resulted in me missing my stop and running to the bus driver, pleading in bad German my need to get off now! Now after a fruitless and futile conversation, I understood that I pressed the button not in due time. Livid with with linguistic blockade, I stormed out in the next stop and took the wrong turn.
And for miles as I walked there is was no sign of the House of World Cultures. And I was beginning to wonder, if I was not really lost.
Not used to the practice of consulting cartography, I reluctantly took out a map and looked at it. To no avail.
I was still lost, but at least I knew I was not very far, but somehow in a "parallel universe" of where I should be.
Getting tired and annoyed and I decided to go back to "ground zero" and take the bus back home!
But then I realized I should not get discouraged by my linguistic ignorance nor my cartographic incompetence, and give it another try.
And so I finally reached the House of World Cultures. And I walk in the room to discover that only four of the artists were able to make it. And to top that these four lucky individuals have finally engaged on a non-verbal level!
They musically improvised and actually had fun!
So I think the proposition for today is to stop thinking and start acting! Maybe a more action-based process, is a process that can induce creativity at a certain level.
This remains to be proven though!
