Co-creative Living Educational Relationship - My Story of Natural Inclusion
3Open Invitation
- I can only explicate my perceptions and
reasoning for opening the door into natural
inclusionality in my personally unique way, using
whatever means I have available to me, and invite
you across the threshold if you wish, where I
will be pleased to welcome, help and engage with
your enquiries as best I can
4Learning As Evolutionary Process-and vice versa
- Learning entails the development of abilities
that can sustain, transform and enrich our lives
in a huge variety of ways - These abilities do not come to us pre-packaged
- Learning is an evolutionary process, vital to the
continuity and quality of human life, which can
bring pleasure and reward -
- Whether this potential is fulfilled or not
depends profoundly on what is learned, why it is
learned and how it is learned - This depends in turn on the underlying
evolutionary paradigm and its associated
assumptions
5Adaptive Learning
- Likely to be highly prescriptive, with specific
aims and objectives defined by fixed
standards and criteria for success and
failure. - Likely only to prepare learners instrumentally,
for success in the short term - Imposes sharp restrictions upon inspirational
qualities that nurture capacity for imaginative
and coherent thought, curiosity and natural
creativity for the long run. - Liable to instil and reinforce a competitive,
intolerant and materialistic ethos that militates
against community belonging and acceptance of
individual or collective diversity and
vulnerability.
6Natural Inclusional Learning
- Offers a more comprehensive, less hard-line
improvisational educational practice - Effectively combines directional focus with
all-round circumspection - Is both instrumental and inspirational in
encouraging co-creative learning in diverse
communities - Provides fluidly tolerant and versatile
qualitative and quantitative guidelines for
evaluation of open-ended learning processes - How come? What is the difference that makes the
difference?

Includes Neighbourhood
8What Seems All Too Obvious- Breathing Space
- When I breathe in, my body expands as my outside
simultaneously contracts and breathes out into
me. The situation is reversed when I breathe out.
There is no delay between what happens inwardly
and what happens outwardly. My bodily boundary
distinguishes my inner space from my outer space
and mediates their reciprocal correspondence. It
does not isolate them.
9What Mentally Blocks The Passage Between Inner
and Outer Space?
- Impermeable Boundaries -
- The Space Barrier
- A Mental Construct That Imposes Complete
Definition by Slicing and Plugging The Gap(s)
Between the Tangible World of Bounded Bodily
Figures and the Intangible Space Through and In
Which Inner Admits and Relates to Outer (and Vice
Versa) - Nouns are lies.
10The Error of the Boxes
- "When a smaller box s is situated, relatively at
rest, inside the hollow space of a larger box S,
then the hollow space of s is a part of the
hollow space of S, and the same "space", which
contains both of them, belongs to each of the
boxes. When s is in motion with respect to S,
however, the concept is less simple. One is then
inclined to think that s encloses always the same
space, but a variable part of the space S. It
then becomes necessary to apportion to each box
its particular space, not thought of as bounded,
and to assume that these two spaces are in motion
with respect to each other. - Albert Einstein, discussing Relativity and the
Problem of Space. Appendix V in Out of My Later
Years, p. 138, Thames Hudson, 1954.
11Whats Wrong?
- Here is WRIT LARGE THE PREMISE THAT SPACE CAN BE
SLICED INTO RIGIDLY BOUNDED PARTS OF A RIGID
WHOLE. - According to the logic of natural
inclusionality, this premise is FALSE space
cannot be pluralized into discrete
particularities, it can only be distinguished
into distinct, dynamically and permeably bounded
regions. Space, as infinite intangible
presence, can neither be moved around nor fixed.
Space cannot be cut, contained or occupied by the
gap-including boundaries of natural, variably
viscous, flow-forms. It can only be fluidly
configured by them.

16A New Physicality
- Natural inclusionality may provide a new
understanding of physical reality a
physicality that doesnt split or deem it
necessary to posit the independent existence of a
material world free from the receptive influence
of a non-material world, or vice versa.
17From Field Theories to Pool Theory
- This new physicality takes us from embedding the
form and movements of material objects in the
hidden connections and lines of force of
structured space as a field, to an appreciation
of natural inclusion as the co-creative, fluid
dynamic, transformation of all through all in a
limitless pool of receptive (inductive) spatial
context

- The co-creative, fluid dynamic transformation of
all through all in receptive spatial context

21Sustainability of the FittingAttunement With
Natural Energy Flow
- The ecological and evolutionary sustainability of
natural life forms, from the cells and tissues in
a human body to the trees in a forest depend upon
the diversity, complementary relationship and
changeability of all within their neighbourhood,
to which they themselves contribute - In scarcity they pool and redistribute internal
resource supplies within integrated structures
and survival capsules they do not compete to
proliferate faster on the dwindling supplies than
their neighbours. In abundance they proliferate
and differentiate

26How Pure Eyesight Can Dislocate Your Knee
- I invite you to sit in a chair, and to stare
fixedly at your knee. Now, still staring, stroke
your knee with your fingers. Now, continue
stroking, but close your eyes. Now open them
again. You might notice a tendency, when opening
and closing your eyes, to change your perception
of your knee.

- The preservation of favoured races in the
struggle for life - Darwin
- You are either with us or against us

28Abstract Rationality
29Whats Missing?
30Space Cannot Be Cut! Connectivity and Continuity
- In abstract thought, continuity implies ignoring
or solidly connecting across gaps of space in a
frozen field of total Oneness - In natural inclusionality, continuity is due to
the non-local omnipresence of space as a
limitless pool of creative potential - The Rigid Rule of the Ice Queen melts Into
fluidly connective and redistributive energetic
configurations of Space-That-Cannot-Be-Cut

34What May Not Be Obvious
- Every body is a cavity at heart
- Every figure reconfigures both in science and in
art - Every face is interfacing from no bottom to no
top - Every faith is interfaith that cannot tell us
where to stop - Every lining opens inwards as it brings its
inside out - Every curtain closes outwards to conceal its
inner doubt - Every story ends in opening from some future into
past - Every glory is the story of finding first in last
- Every aching is the making of another role for
play - Every taking is the slaking of anothers thirst
to stay - Every tidings no confiding with-out the trust to
tell - Every siding is no hiding from the fear of utter
Hell - Every flowing is the ebbing of anothers world
within - Every glowing is the lighting of the darkness in
the spin - Every heartbeat is the murmur in the core of
inner space - Every drumbeat is the echo of the dance within
each place - Every silence is the gathering of the storm that
is to come - When Love comes to Life
