 tive Practice
LOCATION:Sign in to download the location
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Professor John Warren\, CPS:\n\nLed by GW Professor 
 and guitarist John W. Warren (performing as Casanoches)\, the presentatio
 n bridges the internal discipline of art with its outward power to build 
 community. Central to this process is the practice of quieting daily dist
 ractions to cultivate total presence. In this focused state\, improvisati
 on can tap into a cosmic source\, the “Music of the Spheres\,” raw\, unsc
 ripted moments can evolve into formal compositions. Drawing on Federico G
 arcí a Lorca’s seminal theory of duende\, a mysterious\, haunting power t
 hat “it is not a matter of skill\, but of true\, vibrant style\,” Warren 
 illustrates how in-the-moment creative expression taps into flow\, and in
 to a mystical level of human connection.\n\nExtending beyond individual p
 ractice\, the session examines how creative enterprises naturally coalesc
 e into intentional communities. Drawing on his research into “Communities
  of Practice” Warren demonstrates how intimate artistic gatherings offer 
 a sanctuary for genuine human connection\, shared aspirations\, and mutua
 l resonance. Artistic creation often begins in solitude\, yet shared arti
 stic encounters have potential for building enduring bonds across diverse
  backgrounds. Through live classical and electric guitar performances\, i
 mprovisations\, and reflective dialogue\, participants will experience ho
 w tapping into creative flow generates both individual mindfulness and a 
 profound sense of communal belonging.\n---\nEvent Details: https://revcon
