Grooving on Participation - comments on this topic
Introduction:
How can we increase participation locally?
How can we decrease participation-as-fascism in nation states globally?? Pages 98 and 170 pose issues that were urgent in 1994 and are more urgent in 2005.
When I reread much of this dialogue I feel like we were doing our very best to put the musical mysteries into words but we didn't get very far. We struggle to grasp or redefine each other's abstractions.
Which terms are turning out to be useful? Why?
