Circling (*Updated)

IMPACT Day 2

During the second day of IMPACT, I felt a unique energy from each participant. When we participated in Music installation session, there were various reactions: some nervous or curious while others, shy. However, it is apparent that when we encounter something new for the first time in life, we each construct our own opinions and thoughts. Then, creative energy is generated within us, circling inside. Proactive noticing “knocks” on our creative mind and this circling energy responds to it.

Our collective thoughts and reactions then begin to connect with each other through sharing in various methods such as Dance and Movement and Arts Collectives. A collective “knocking” on each individual’s mind begins to generate collective energy in small groups.

This “knocking” begins as an utterly personal and individual phenomenon. But through sharing, it is expressed within small groups of five to six people. As a result, each creative and unique energy is gathered and becomes larger. This phenomenon was reminiscent of a gathering of precious and thoroughly individual art works in one place, or perhaps a microcosm of the sheer diversity in our world.

By the end of the day, the rapidly circling energy from each participant seemed to be an organic expression of art in itself.
