your brain hasn't found a good match, and you're in a state that scientists call experiential blindness. So now I'm gonna cure you of your experiential blindness. This is always my favorite
empathy museums a place which is not about dusty exhibits you know like an old Victorian Museum but at an experiential and conversational public space where you might walk in and in the first room there is a human library where you can borrow people for conversations you walk into the next room and there are 20 sewing machines and there are former vietnamese sweatshop workers there who would teach
like materialists did-- experientialists are finding status, identity, happiness, and meaning, and experiences instead. Experientialism-- and I've said it a lot of times-- I think can solve a problem like stuffication. More importantly, experientialism, I believe, will solve stuffication.
like that it would follow that uh that they live in a completely different experiential world with their snow than we do and even to try to understand their world would probably be imperialistic and colonialist even to try as I say uh or the story was told about the uh the
with these students, I want to stay focused a bit on the more mission-oriented focus of Citizen School and experiential learning. Going back to Nadia, I know experiential learning and project-based learning is something that we've already referenced a couple of times here, and I know it's a major focus of Citizen School, and giving students this different type of learning experience.
that it's so far-fetched where you can't even think of it as a problem. Through experiential learning and through our projects that we work with teachers to support, we want students to actually think of a problem that connects to them as an individual. So within a classroom, we could have many different projects popping up because of where that student is coming from, their impact or what is affecting their life,
Can. There's also a tremendous amount of research that's invasive and ethically questioned mark on non-human animals that various stimuli, presumably with experiential correlates, lead to lasting changes in their brains. And through very invasive research of the granularity of what's been discovered is really quite extraordinary.
That hasn't existed for a very long time. Very experientially based. So can you talk to this group who really looks at a lot of data in the campaigns and things
It's very brief, but it gives you a sense of how this plays out and, frankly, how experiential avoidance winds up multiplying our misery. The way in which mindfulness practices are going to help us with this wide variety of different kinds of psychological difficulties is pretty much
When you tell people who haven't done the practice much, they say, oh, sure, I'm living in the present all the time. of experiential avoidance, because when something uncomfortable comes up in mindfulness practice, instead of quick, how do I change it, how do I fix it,
moves, it's continuous. We know what it is at a visceral level and an experiential level. We might not understand it at a formal level, but we know what time is. It's what keeps, makes today today and not yesterday or tomorrow. Space is a little different. You can walk somewhere, you can walk back, you can move around. You have more freedom to move in space than you have to move in time.
Trevon, I want to shift to you and hear about the impact of working with the Citizen Schools and this program, and how the project and experiential-based work that is a part of the Catalyst program impacted both you and your students. And for a little context for the audience, what this actually looks like is that Trevon's class was working on a project for about a 10-week period, where
and the ways in which they want to take that journey to deliver an end results based off of where they are starting. So that's like experiential learning. But through this what are we hoping to achieve is when we talk about like our social and emotional skill development, and that's where a growth mindset comes
conspiracy to destroy the black boys Volume one through three, and then right again turning around and creating the conspiracy to destroy the black girls, coupling that with all of the experiential information that we've had and been given through The Education of the Negro by Carter G. Woodson. The Mis Education of the Negro by Dr Carter G. Woodson You know, this thing that happened to me is what I would often described as slavery going on
Is it working? My sense is, not quite yet. It's experiential art. Whether it was to be experienced in a palace-- there were no such things as museums.
here uh so so the reason I have any people listening to my show and and reading the book is experiential I have lived a a a very common Tale in Western Society I grew up deeply religious and in my case experienced what I felt was a
is multiplied in a technical network, through the network effect. To actually realize the experiential side of wealth, you want a richness that is not in the richness sense of lots
Also, of course, from the perspective of the brain. But starting with the experiential differences. And in order to talk about this, I want to differentiate between the hypnogogic state-- so this is the state leading into sleep, sleep onset--
Now if you think about this description, or what it might be like for you to have a dream like that, there's two ways in which the dream might be structured experientially. On the one hand, you might feel yourself in the dream. So you're experiencing the dream world through your own eyes.
And you're kind of reenacting or reliving the situation. It's an experiential process.
Well, from-- again, from the perspective of contemporary neuroscience, it would-- the framework for which we currently have to understand experiential phenomena like compassion and suffering is by way of physiological processes in our body and in our brain.
It's so intensely experiential.
Now if you look experientially at the state of mind that is full of warmheartedness, benevolence, kindness,
does this work? This one, does it work?-- I've come across one idea, which I think is going to catch on and become dominant. I call it experientialism. And the people who live this way, experientialists.
And the people who live this way, experientialists. So the experientialists, instead of looking for status, identity, happiness, and meaning in material things-- like materialists did-- experientialists are finding status, identity, happiness, and meaning, and experiences instead.
So the experientialists, instead of looking for status, identity, happiness, and meaning in material things-- like materialists did-- experientialists are finding status, identity, happiness, and meaning, and experiences instead. Experientialism-- and I've said it a lot of times-- I think can solve a problem like stuffication.
Even if it's still unevenly distributed, that we are moving away from materialism, and the experientialism is making the leap from the innovative few to the many in the mainstream. So first up, there's the evidence that shows that our attitudes are changing.
Anyone got no idea what Brewsters Millions is? What's an experiential good?
Anyone got no idea what Brewsters Millions is? So an experiential good is so much more positive.
There were experiential rewards from working on new problems, gathering insights, imagining and creating novel things,
It's very experiential. It's a very emotional landscape in which we've woven through this technology, through devices.
It's experiential. So I think about-- I'm a geek, so I think about stuff like this-- "The Matrix" or "Inception." The one thing that both of those movies had
is a different experiential model that adds another piece to the mosaic.
So even if there are similar experiential touchstones for us, so where we are today, wanting to go to business school in the future, career or organizational or
So even if there were Kind of experiential touchstones many of us have, the way that we engage with them is gonna look very different.
that we're studying this experiential stuff let's you know let's probe it.
then that gives us an experiential sense, which triggers our feelings-- again, it's all about feelings-- in ways that a 3.5 centimeter increase
their authentic selves to the material under this umbrella of experiential learning. So when we as Citizen Schools define experiential learning, we're thinking about we're creating spaces where students have the opportunity to engage with material that connects to them as an individual and allows them to apply their learning to solve real world problems.
Is it working? My sense is, not quite yet. People-- we have an enormous experiential art economy.
Is it working? My sense is, not quite yet. So we now talk about them as experiential artists.
Good luck with "Kind Heaven" Experiential in Vegas.
What we want is that experiential marketing.
And I'm going to talk about how to do that now. And then we'll do a little experiential practice, explore the implications, and then I'll shut up, and we'll discuss it.
And I'm going to talk about how to do that now. So you want to try something experiential?
There is a stadium and experiential aspect to it in terms of what the guests and the fans are going to encounter and experience.
The second thing on the experiential side of it that Frank was referring to, most of the Super Bowl cities, other than Atlanta and New Orleans, really
And before we go towards the experiential part of whatever it is that we talked about, if there are any questions,
And just a really quick experiential-- I'm all about the experience of what you can do to intentionally shift your behavior.
That hasn't existed for a very long time. And then a lot of experiential things you talked about in your retail stores.
That hasn't existed for a very long time. I'm a still big fan on experiential.
