Take a few minutes or a few days to think about what “site” you will use during this course. It can be big or small, your backyard or the back 40. You can also choose a social project, like your business, or music project. Big or small, inside or outside. Your kitchen or your closet, your 100 acre farm or your condo balcony. It can also be a social space, like you family or marriage, your workplace or spiritual community. Also, don’t worry about making the “right” decision. You can change your mind at any time. We just want to get you thinking about sites and what you want to work on for this course.
Draw a site plan. This doesn’t have to be fancy or super detailed – just a representation of your chosen site. You will add to and evolve this representation (probably a drawing to start with) as we go through the course. Don’t get too picky… just get something down!
Remember this is just a starting place, the rougher and freer the better. This is a sketch and you can even change your site later on, but do get started!
Watch the video below and then write a paragraph about how it impacted you. *Note: This documentary is about what happened to Cuba when the Soviet Union broke up and was no longer able to supply the country with oil. We understand that there is a cultural war zone surrounding idealistic communism vs. free-market capitalism. We believe it is important to consider both sides in this polarization and untangle the web of propaganda. We don’t profess to know the truth about the current state of the world, and showing this or any other video is not an endorsement of anything. It is an exploration and inquiry. Thanks for joining us!
then a PDC might be right for you!
