1. fruition part 1

    we like tension. strong tension between opposing forces. interesting things seem to happen when they’re both at work at the same time… and we attempt to tune the balance.

    experience vs. analysis

    intentionality vs. “sponging” — wandering, watching, waiting to see what happens.

    creating vs. critiquing vs. destroying

    another aspect of the above, although not necessarily a tension, is the feeling of muteness. sometimes energy is expended in a way that can’t be explained, only demonstrated physically. 

     
  2. fruition part 2

    the tension is enacted by:

    the scholar: structured knowledge, learning, untangling. the system builder.

    the diver: exploration, immersion, experiential learning

    the javelin-thrower: distiller, transformer, strength through pure emotion… cuts through coral.

    the singer: lover, nurturer

    the wolf: destroyer, willful strength

    the host: graciousness, aesthetics/taste, sensitivity

    the nymph: openness, vulnerability, innocence

    the engineer: works, labors, manipulates. sets in stone. builds. this one is a little broken.

    they interact with and/or affect each other, sometimes they put on each other’s clothes.
