The Global Reporting Initiative, p 286 Postlude: Homage To Catatonia, p 299 5 Look at the young man in the reflection. He is serious, but about what, except this self-portrait, is not yet certain. Definitely serious about making a print that in somewhat faded form will survive almost five decades. If he was looking back at how his life played out, would he be struck more by the coincidence of fate or the singularity of intention; bereft by the opportunities he missed, or amazed at those he seized? Would his small part in moving the human agenda seem more than likely or less than enough? Curiosity led him then: it leads him still. 6 Prelude: GOD POSITION Although I’m skeptical that deities exist who look like us, only better, and are concerned with our affairs, I have an abiding curiosity about choreography and flow. Einstein gave us the theory of relativity, explaining the relation of energy and mass, and said that God doesn’t roll dice with the universe. Heisenberg gave us probability theory, suggesting that straight-line projections are a comforting myth, and someone or something is shooting craps. The relation of energy to mass is constant, and in a perfect dynamic: it is always one off. The potential for conversion gives us uncertainty, mutation, change — and the existence of such bizarre beings as ourselves. The universe is a large and complicated dance. It’s no wonder that we all yearn at times for an exemption from learning the steps, and dream of a celestial partner who really knows how to lead. WE ARE ALL BUDDHA Visiting the extra-special, super-renowned Green Gulch Zen Center in Marin County for a Sunday morning service in the late ‘70s, escorted by a knowledgeable friend, I watched Richard Baker-Roshi make his entrance. A Bishop Fulton Sheen type, if you go back that far. You could see he liked his clothes and had cultivated a manner. Later it was revealed that besides being a confidant of Governor Brown and other captains of industry, he was porking a renowned parishioner’s wife. That scandal caused an om-entory grinding of gears and temporal realignment of roles. Not as serious as when the high Shaman of Shambala, the Nabob of the Naropa Zen Center was caught doing junior monks while suffering from AIDS, sure in the knowledge that his god-hood, holy light protected his minions from the — what shall we call it? Certainly not “contamination?” Nor would it have been such a deal in the days of Borgia popes, where sex and death were the waves that broke every day on the Holy See. Baker-Roshi seized the rostrum, the pulpit, like an Airedale shaking a rat. He surveyed us like an eagle, lining up targets far below. 7 His first story was about a famous Zen monk in the old country known as “The Tiger.” The Tiger, tiring of an acolyte’s repetitious questions, began beating him at every opportunity. “Oh you Tiger,” Baker-Roshi intoned fondly. My goodness, I thought, looking around the room, the hundred or so in rapt attention, what do we have here? Mass bondage? Community S & M? Shortly after, with his parting shot, Roshi, disdaining both audience and presumably himself, averred that, “Buddha is not in this room. He is not among us.” Oh you tiger. What a cynical pussycat you turn out to be. To the best of my intuition, Buddha was among all of us Siddarthas at that moment, riding down life’s highway; peering out from behind the karmic wheel of a 16 ton rig on a ride to nowhere, occasionally stopping to enjoy the view from some scenic overlook, or bemused by our attempts to collect tolls from passing vehicles. LIFE IS A FOUNTAIN The shaggiest of all shaggy canine stories has a man at the end of his life searching for its meaning. His travels take him over all the world at the cost of his fortune. Finally, he attains the high Himalayas, kneeling in the snow before an ancient, blind guru who reposes in lotus position, naked, and apparently several feet off the ground. In ecstasy, the supplicant gasps out, “Tell me, oh teacher, what I have sought. Tell me the meaning of life.” As if from far away, a voice pronounces with great calm, “Life is a fountain.” The searcher mulls this over for a few moments, then exclaims, “You mean I’ve traveled all over the world and spent my fortune to hear that life is a fountain? That’s the most simplistic, ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard.” Again, as if from a great distance, comes the voice, “You mean life isn’t a fountain?” GOD IN THE HOOD I was returning from a Miriam Makeba concert in Portland, Maine with two people, only Heidi knew me well.

  • SAVING the TITANIC, the Remarkable Untold Story of the Men Who Tried to Save the Ship, Premieres Sunday, April 1, 2012 at 10:00 P.M
    SAVING THE TITANIC, The Remarkable Untold Story of the Men Who Tried to Save the Ship, Premieres Sunday, April 1, 2012 at 10:00 p.m. (check local listings) on PBS She was the Pride of the British Empire and a leading example of state-of-the art engineering in a time of groundbreaking scientific and technological innovations on a global scale. Yet the RMS Titanic sank less than three hours after striking an iceberg on April 14, 1912. Everyone knows about the many deaths in the icy waters, the fates of the rich and famous on the ship’s maiden voyage and the dramas that played out in the Titanic’s last hours. What is less known is how a team of shipbuilders and engineers attempted to save the stricken vessel. One hundred years after the sinking of the vessel considered unsinkable, SAVING THE TITANIC is the untold story of self-sacrifice and dignity of the ship’s engineers, stokers and firemen in the face of impending death. With an ensemble cast in the roles of the valiant men below deck, SAVING Titanic Credit: Courtesy of Tile Films Ltd. THE TITANIC premieres on Sunday, April 1 at 10:00 p.m. ET with encore presentations on Friday, April 6 at 10:30 p.m. ET, Tuesday, April 10 at 9:00 p.m. ET, and Saturday, April 14 at 9:00 p.m. ET (check local listings) on PBS. Additional PBS programs scheduled in conjunction with the 100th anniversary of the Titanic disaster include THE TITANIC WITH LEN GOODMAN (April 10) and NOVA “Why Ships Sink” (April 18).

  • Building on Design Thinking: Pedagogical Challenges and Titanic Solutions
    Building on Design Thinking: pedagogical challenges and Titanic solutions Paul J. McElheron, Assistant Professor, VIA University College, Herning, Denmark. PhD student, Aarhus University, Graduate School Arts, Denmark. E-mail: [email protected]. Abstract: This paper charts our efforts aimed at developing students’, (novice designers), creativity, complex problem solving skills and innovative potential through combining design thinking and knowledge building. Over three case studies, we went from evaluating design thinking as a creative problem-solving tool to combining the process and practices of design thinking with the principles of knowledge building. We find that this enables students to work creatively with knowledge and helps sustain idea improvement. With these case studies as the background, we explored how to communicate design thinking and knowledge building to students as this faces some pedagogical challenges. To facilitate this process we used the sinking of RMS Titanic in 1912. Faced with the problem, “How could more lives have been saved?” using a design thinking methodology saves over 700 additional lives, teams using the combined approach develop solutions that may save the entire ship. The challenge enabled students to engage in sustained collaborative idea improvement and gain an introduction to the concepts of design thinking and knowledge building. Keywords: Knowledge building, design thinking, creativity Introduction In our experience, students and novice designers who lack domain experience or procedural knowledge benefit considerably from a process. Design thinking is a creative problem-solving process including several practices aimed at ensuring ideas are generated freely, expressed visually, combined, prototyped and tested. It uses a process map in five steps: understanding user needs, framing problems to understand real needs, generating ideas, prototyping solutions and obtaining feedback.
