No Apologies; But Deep Gratitude

Readers comment about the difficulty of following some of the ideas presented here.  They are abstract or conceptual or philosophical.  Lay readers -- mentors, creative types, friends of the project -- find the notions here strange and hard to follow.
I cannot apologize, and I have to ask readers to do the work, follow what they can, and/or ask me to do a better job clarifying the ideas.  But I can't do away with these ideas.
Why?  Because breakout creative figures are about aspiration, and such a mindset and lifeway has to be appreciated on its own level.  Aspiration is about what is coming and doesn't exist yet, and still commands the decisions and values of people who hold them.
The breakout creative project intends to do a these things:
1.  Inform and train mentors to support these aspiring people.
2. Foster conversation among the creative types, and so increase communication and amplify the potential reception and effect of their work.
3.  Provide each type with a defining picture of their "mindsets," such that they experience the difficulties they do, and they are able to envision the breakout worlds they do.
4.  Provide each type with a sense of how their mindset connects with the larger human endeavor;  and that is, to grasp how this kind of creativity came to have around it the expectations and preferences it does -- as a matter of evolution and history.
5.  Most importantly, to help these figures and those who care for them and support them to see how this work is generative, making more alive and acting closer to the heart of what makes the human endeavor the difficult and yet commanding way it is.
To do this, we are forced to consider how it is that breakout creatives' values and life choices and needs do not track with the mainstream -- and how those who aspire to be "creative" need to deviate from the norming, leveling, dulling routines, prescriptions and "common sense" notions that prevail.
And so our ideas have to be "out there," and then get difficult to explain.
Our ideas cannot rely on common sensical, technical and managerial notions, but they do rely on deep research into what great thinkers and creative people are envisioning for a more expansive and encompassing human endeavor.  Nothing presented in this project is a matter of pure speculation, but comes from a deep study of people worth studying.
Self-organization and generativity underly all our work -- and so departs from cause and effect logic, or theological ideas of "presence" or mechanistic notions of "personal development."  Instead, we have to see how we grow through a process of gathering recollections that accrete and amass until a "symmetry break," a new frame of openness to life exerts itself.
Then contemporary work in philosophy, literary criticism, social thought, biology and neuroanatomy, new research in history all come into play.
I attempt to synthesize these influences into a narrative about each figure that accomplishes the objectives listed above.  This narrative is difficult because it uses new ideas not yet taught in schools in order to give substance and veracity to the feelings and drives that constitute aspiration.
This blog will focus on some of the seminal ideas used in the project in hopes of providing another stab at clarity.  The rest is up to the reader.
My deep respect and admiration, and deeper appreciation and gratitude is offered to each and every one of you who does try to stay with me.  My deepest respect and care is offered to all those who want to join with all of us who share the need to firm our aspirations into thoughts an actions that will open the human endeavor to the new horizons it craves, at the core of its being.
