The session began with a musical snippet demonstration focusing on rhythmic patterns using 1-5-10 in Mixolydian mode, followed by a profound metaphor about beaver ponds to explain how the academy functions as an ecosystem in which different members (observers, explorers, experimenters, and builders) contribute to the community’s richness.
The Final Beginning Project for “Creative Resonance” was to use the principles from the class to create something and share it.
