2 models
Werner Erhard speaks to Harvard Kennedy School students
Why we do what we do: A new model providing actionable access to the source of performance.
#Prevailing #Model of performance : #In-there #Out-here
Existing Model : Prevailing way we have explained performance
Personal characteristics of the performers "in there"
Circumstances with which the performers are dealing with "Out here"
#New Model #Correlative #Ontological #Linguistic
"New model"
"Know-how"
Latest neuroscience shows actions are correlated with perception , and perception is shaped by language
Performance is an effect where the cause of that effect is :
(1) the internal characteristics and attributes of the performer (2) the external circumstances with which the performer is confronted
Cause / effect
Psychological / physiological
Epistemological "Know-that"
Circumstancial
Everyday common-sense #world-view
Cartesian
The way the circumstances occur is constituted in #language or at least shaped by language, and in any case is accessible in language.
When the occuring is altered, the correlated action is also altered.
Action is correlated to the way the circumstances , the world and performers themselves #OCCUR ("show up") in the perception of the performer.
Action is correlate of something ...
Performance is exclusively a product of #ACTION
If the new model is valid then it provides access to the source of performance ... namely my #mouth .
I have control over what my #mouth says. I don't have control over how I feel or what I think.
A poetic phrase for action being correlated to the way the world occurs: Action is #in-a-dance with the way the world occurs.
What is it to be conscious ?
Try on: "I am the #clearing in which all of life occurs." (as contrasted with being a particular bit of content within that clearing)
A promise only exists in being spoken as such.
2 kinds of speaking:
Use of "here" and "there" are trickier notions than we typically realise.
Where is "seeing Werner" happening?
and "World to word fit" eg. I promise.
"Word to world fit" (trying to get it right)
Evoking that the world occurs in language
Life isn't "difficult" nor is it "hard" for a whale.
"Difficult" is a phenomenon that is constituted exclusively in language.
The feelings of being in difficulty are correlated with the linguistic tendency to experience life as "difficult"
Whales do not have "too much to do" . The only thing you will get done today is what you do today.
"I never have too much to do. I have things I'm not doing. But I'm not doing those things. 'Not' is a verb in that last sentence."
C. "How am I occuring to myself ?"
In areas of difficulty, consider the questions:
A. "How are the circumstances occuring for me ?"
B. "How is what I'm dealing with occuring for me?"
Change the game, change the frame.
Create a game that we can win.
Create a new or alternative game to play... one that is fun.
Expert action is "transparent" to the actor
