Robert Fripp's Diary

Wednesday 14 August 2013

Stackpole Centre Pembroke Rising from

11.29

Stackpole Centre, Pembroke
    
Rising 06.11 from NightWorld adventures. David Bowie featured in these, twice. In the first NightWorld Bowie adventure, I was going to play live with David. In the second, Bowie was performing onstage in a tight-fitting dancer’s costume, undertaking what might be described as gymnastic / yogic postures.

Morning Sitting 06.43.
Breakfast at 07.44 with washing up afterwards.

The First Meeting of the day in Eternity at 08.45.
One late arrival, by five minutes, and then we were off.
At 10.05 the conversation became a formal Dialogue.

There is no Crisis In The Work: but a Crisis In The World.
Rather than Making A New World, better Making A New Cake.
Alternatively, Baking A New World.
Any new form of The Work will immediately be attacked.

Until 10.15ish.

En passant, to Anthony Blake after coffee:
Music is itself a way. Music speaks from, to and of itself. The primary characteristic of Guitar Craft is Silence: a Presence that walks into the room and holds us all together.

22.35    A noon meeting with Elan and Stefan noon for The Thomas de Hartmann Project  (Facebook link).

Lunch 13.00.
Walking meditation 14.15 for those who wish.

Personal meeting with Cherry at 17.15.
George presented the Master Exercise at 17.45 for the second time. Greater clarity for me, this second time.

Server-arriving 18.30 for dinner at 19.00.

An after-dinner presentation by Elan of The Thomas de Hartmann Project, followed by some words on the practicalities of the Project by Stefan. At the end, I pitched for financial support. This was out of tune, and recognized as such.

Personal meeting afterwards.
