A recapitulation of the Primaries with comments and addenda.
An introduction to two key elements of The OCG vocabulary, necessary for those who have an interest in attending The OCG public performance in Mendoza next year: the Procession and the Whizz.
Procession chords shown, and Vicious Queen Marisol led the Procession around the corridors.
Back to the Ballroom, forming two Whizz groups with VQ Marisol and Vicious Ag; moving to the main corridor for whizzing.
Returning to the Ballroom once again, the intended snaking did not and the Snake became otherwise, placing a not-quite-yet Queen of Viciousness in the pole position. And in front of our eyes, a Vicious Queen was born.
Very interesting to see how a person in a role is invested with sufficient juice to enable them to discharge their function.

A Vicious Queen has been taken to the hospital for diagnosis.

22.39 Personal Meeting. Mostly, questions were asked of Robert. While presenting the notion of challenge as an important technique, one of the Team interrupted: Could they ask a burning question? Do you have a challenge for us?
Robert rose from the cushion to reveal two hats, each with the names of all members of the Intro Team. Various configurations and groupings were placed on the floor, including a soloist from each hat, for a Performance tomorrow at 21.30. The House is available for rehearsing until 05.00, and through tomorrow.
