This Monday evening's explorations of SAVI found us comparing the development of SAVI skills to the development of foreign language skills. We spent a good part of the evening drawing connections between SAVI skills, language, and the development of new behavior patterns.
We also talked a good deal about 'voice', and the role SAVI might play in the development of a more authentic 'voice'. Specifically, the notion of 'artistic voice' was considered. Could there be a connection between 'Authentic Voice' and 'Artistic Voice'?
We also recognized the difficulty of mentoring oneself, and how important the interaction of a more experienced person is in the development of new skills. The more we explore the grid, the more complex it becomes, and the more we try to help each other along the way.
