ABOUT THE PRACTICE
THE GLASS BEAD GAME IS A CONTEMPLATIVE PRACTICE THAT TRANSFORMS THINKING INTO ART. THROUGH SYMBOLIC NOTATION AND CAREFUL ATTENTION TO CONCEPTUAL RELATIONSHIPS, PRACTITIONERS CONSTRUCT TRAJECTORIES THAT REVEAL THE HIDDEN HARMONIES CONNECTING ALL KNOWLEDGE.
EACH SESSION IS A FORM OF INTELLECTUAL IMPROVISATION—A DANCE BETWEEN LOGICAL PRECISION AND INTUITIVE WISDOM THAT AWAKENS NEW PATTERNS OF UNDERSTANDING.
