    The Guardian for this meeting was Bleu Oleander. The comments are by Bleu Oleander.

     

    Johan Huizinga defines play as follows:

    "Summing up the formal characteristic of play, we might call it a free activity standing quite consciously outside 'ordinary' life as being 'not serious' but at the same time absorbing the player intensely and utterly. It is an activity connected with no material interest, and no profit can be gained by it. It proceeds within its own proper boundaries of time and space according to fixed rules and in an orderly manner. It promotes the formation of social groupings that tend to surround themselves with secrecy and to stress the difference from the common world by disguise or other means."

    This definition of play as constituting a separate and independent sphere of human activity is sometimes referred to as the "magic circle" notion of play, a phrase also attributed to Huizinga. However, many other definitions exist when trying to make sense of what play really is. As Piaget states, "the many theories of play expounded in the past are clear proof that the phenomenon is difficult to understand." (Piaget, 1962)

    Bleu Oleander: hi San
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi San
    Santoshima Resident: hi :)
    Eliza Madrigal: I'm interested in the topic, not sure where to grasp the thread from though :)
    Bleu Oleander: yes I have the same feeling
    Santoshima Resident: make something up
    Louis Onyett: Hi San, not sure I follow today's topic yet.
    Louis Onyett: ANy ideas?
    Bleu Oleander: topic is open atm
    Bleu Oleander: hi Adams :)
    Louis Onyett: Well, not a topic, but strange fact.
    Santoshima Resident: Reciprocity?
    Xirana Oximoxi: 's current display-name is "Xirana".
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Adams :)
    Bleu Oleander: hi Xiri
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Xiri :)
    Louis Onyett: Hi Adam, Xiri
    Xirana Oximoxi: hello everyone! :-)
    Eliza Madrigal: I suppose imagination is inherently reciprocal
    Eliza Madrigal: seeds of ideas being gathered and planted knowingly and unknowingly
    Adams Rubble final.y gets through the wall
    Eliza Madrigal: I suppose that's my first image of the topic - gardening and cultivation, also dreams
    Adams Rubble: hello everyone :)
    Santoshima Resident: hello Adams, Xirana
    Eliza Madrigal: :) and no worse the wear for the trouble of the crossing Adams
    Adams Rubble: the wall might be better being phantom
    Santoshima Resident: yes
    Eliza Madrigal is feeling warm on the beach with this hat and plunders inventory for lighter hair ^.^
    Bleu Oleander: the wall is phantom
    Adams Rubble: hmm, maybe I need to be phantom :)
    Santoshima Resident: haha
    Bleu Oleander: lol
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Xirana Oximoxi: :)
    Bleu Oleander: :)
    Bleu Oleander: what is the distinction between play and imaginative play?
    Bleu Oleander: hiya Aggers
    Agatha Macbeth: Greetings :)
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Agatha :)
    Xirana Oximoxi: hello Aga :-)
    Adams Rubble: Hello Agatha :)
    Bleu Oleander: lovely hat :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Hm, i seem to be on a desert island
    Adams Rubble: imaginative play needs imagination?
    Agatha Macbeth: TY :)
    Bleu Oleander: isn't play by it's very nature imaginative?
    Xirana Oximoxi: play just following rules...or play without following them...but anyway the word 'play' may be imaginative
    Bleu Oleander: so you could say reciprocity of play?
    Santoshima Resident: have ben reading a worthwhile book by Wade Davies, titled The Wayfinders: Why Ancient Wisdom Matters in the Modern World ... the role of Reciprocity in various cultures seems mightily significant
    Santoshima Resident: in the growth and continuence
    Santoshima Resident: of language of shared ways of being
    Santoshima Resident: and of
    Santoshima Resident: (insert tht after "language" mz editor. thank you!)
    Bleu Oleander: ancient wisdom matters indeed ... how we integrate it into our lives today matters also
    Eliza Madrigal: what an interesting title, nods
    Santoshima Resident: interesting book
    Santoshima Resident: presented in 2009 as Massey lectures
    Xirana Oximoxi: I would say 're-creation' more than 'reciprocity' related to Ancient Wisdom...but I agree about reciprocity between cultures actually
    --BELL--


    Bleu Oleander: reciprocity seems a basic step towards being together in a culture/society
    Eliza Madrigal: the leap from playing next to one another to offering and acceptance
    Eliza Madrigal: and learning from another's play
    Eliza Madrigal: (sandcastle/box image appropriate for the setting ^.^)
    Bleu Oleander: :)
    Eliza Madrigal: (daughter just said Happy Mothers Day and that she was going to get me a cat (she wants a cat) :P
    Louis Onyett: Backing up, what do we think of as play once adults?
    Bleu Oleander: lol
    Eliza Madrigal giggles
    Santoshima Resident: awww
    Xirana Oximoxi: hehe :))
    Louis Onyett: meow. Kittens are really cute.
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh is it mothers' day there?
    Santoshima Resident: happy mother's day to all the mothers here
    Agatha Macbeth: Yay
    Eliza Madrigal: tyvm *
    Louis Onyett: Mom's earn it. :D
    Agatha Macbeth: True
    Xirana Oximoxi: it's important to 'play' too as adults ...
    Louis Onyett: Daughter sounds like a future MBA, dealing in win/win
    Louis Onyett: lol
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Eliza Madrigal: so agree Xiri
    Eliza Madrigal: when kids are little it is easy to enter their play, as a mom, but when they get older have to find that for oneself without the excuse of doing it for and with them :)
    Eliza Madrigal: play 'as' an adult
    Louis Onyett: Yes. And, I think fathers have a tough time as daughters get older, but not as much with sons.
    Louis Onyett: Is it the same the other way with moms and sons, I wonder.
    Eliza Madrigal: it has been for me.. I don't see it but I know that by feedback from others :)
    Louis Onyett: Good point about still entering their play regardless.
    Louis Onyett: I never thought about it directly. We often don't think about the value of play.
    Louis Onyett: unless in a group called PaB
    Louis Onyett: lol
    Eliza Madrigal smiles
    Xirana Oximoxi: yes:)) here is a very remarcable topic:)
    Bleu Oleander: so what actually do we mean by "play" and can play have dif meanings to dif peeps?
    Adams Rubble: we may play more than we think :)
    Bleu Oleander: yes
    Zen Arado: 's current display-name is "Zen".
    Bleu Oleander: hiya Zen
    Louis Onyett: A great question. Does jogging equal play?
    Adams Rubble: Hello Zen :)
    Bleu Oleander: we're talking about play Zen
    Louis Onyett: It is not really fun if you run hard. lol
    Zen Arado: Hi all
    Eliza Madrigal: does it have to do with the quality inside of action and response?
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Zen :)
    Xirana Oximoxi: hello Zen! :-)
    Santoshima Resident: hello Zen :)
    Adams Rubble: work can be play
    Bleu Oleander: so does play have to be fun?
    Agatha Macbeth: Hiya Mr DJ :)
    Bleu Oleander: I recall moments of play in my life when someone talks about play ... most likely dif than your moments of remembrance of play?
    Eliza Madrigal: maybe matters when one takes the measure
    Louis Onyett: I guess maybe play should help us feel useful or give us other positive feelings
    Bleu Oleander: so the quality of our understanding of play depends on our past experiences?
    Adams Rubble: being mindful of when we are playing
    Zen Arado: wonders about play/fun distinction
    Louis Onyett: Hey, we are playing right now. ;D
    Adams Rubble: playing is a way of seeing
    Adams Rubble: explori9ng
    Adams Rubble: exploring
    Zen Arado: fun = play we enjoyed?
    Eliza Madrigal: I think it is not easy to deeply play with others.... needs a lot of trust and that can't really be done in a deliberate way... just magical conditions arising
    Bleu Oleander: so what are the qualities that make experience "play"?
    Eliza Madrigal: we can play with conditions though :)
    --BELL--


    Xirana Oximoxi: capacity of seing things from a different perspective than usual...
    Bleu Oleander: enjoyment and recreation rather than a serious or practical purpose?
    Zen Arado: Eliza hints that play is an important part of relationship?
    Adams Rubble slips away to play at Sunday morning chores
    Bleu Oleander: take care Adams
    Xirana Oximoxi: :)
    Adams Rubble: bye all. nice to see you all :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Slip well Adams
    Zen Arado: playing TOGETHER
    Xirana Oximoxi: bye bye Adams:) havwe a nice play :()
    Santoshima Resident: good bye Adams, gtsy
    Eliza Madrigal: you too Adams - very stylish today
    Zen Arado: bye Adams
    Eliza Madrigal: realize the picture is coming clearer me - that there is reciprocity and play may arise spontaneously from that
    Bleu Oleander: can one play by one's self?
    Eliza Madrigal: *for (where are my words going?!) lol
    Agatha Macbeth: Of course!
    Zen Arado: :)
    Bleu Oleander: so reciprocity is a possible trigger for play?
    Louis Onyett: I go back to many things like taking care of a garden, landscaping, running, all things that may be play
    Eliza Madrigal: I think so.... the exchange of those seeds and gestures back and forth then perhaps in more dynamic ways
    Bleu Oleander: what are the seeds of play?
    Eliza Madrigal: can we give gestures to ourselves? :)
    Louis Onyett: <<looking br="" for=""> Bleu Oleander: :)
    Xirana Oximoxi: to be open mind, curious, explores...(some seeds)
    Bleu Oleander: curiosity can feel like play
    Xirana Oximoxi: explorer
    Eliza Madrigal: nice... nodding
    Louis Onyett: making play a priority in each day
    Bleu Oleander: science is play sanctioned by society
    Eliza Madrigal smiles
    Bleu Oleander: paid for by tax payers
    Bleu Oleander: lol
    Zen Arado: or philosophy
    Louis Onyett: Art as well
    Bleu Oleander: indeed
    Eliza Madrigal: play lab
    Zen Arado: (has nosebleed)
    Zen Arado: hmm
    Bleu Oleander: oh no
    Louis Onyett: yikes
    Bleu Oleander: hand Zen a tissue
    Agatha Macbeth sticks her finger up Zen's nose
    Bleu Oleander: lol
    Zen Arado: don't get that often
    Louis Onyett: quick thinking
    Xirana Oximoxi: :)
    Eliza Madrigal: oh dear
    Zen Arado: sucks ait through right nostril
    Louis Onyett: that was playful, Agatha. :D
    Zen Arado: getting better
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Zen Arado: air
    Agatha Macbeth: Air today gone tomorrow
    Zen Arado: refrained from rude comment
    Louis Onyett: And there was reciprocity
    Xirana Oximoxi: Lady Agatha today:) sooo sofisticated lady :)
    Louis Onyett: Huh, I finally get the topic thanks to Ag's finger.
    Bleu Oleander: the gloved hand of play
    Agatha Macbeth: Gracias guapina <3
    Xirana Oximoxi: de nada :-)
    Zen Arado: rubber glive ?
    Zen Arado: lol
    Agatha Macbeth: PaB medical emergencies: chapter 1
    Zen Arado: blood on my keyboard
    Santoshima Resident: "helping hand" section
    Zen Arado: sounds like a bluse song
    Bleu Oleander: so a definition of play seems illusive ...
    Santoshima Resident: life
    Louis Onyett: That is the perfect mystery book title: "Blood on my Keyboard"
    Santoshima Resident: language
    Santoshima Resident: culture
    Bleu Oleander: being
    Zen Arado: :)
    Bleu Oleander: :) Louji
    Agatha Macbeth: Louji and Bleuji
    Santoshima Resident: flirting
    Bleu Oleander: life
    Santoshima Resident: { *** pla ***}
    Santoshima Resident: it's a flow thing
    Santoshima Resident: y
    Bleu Oleander: resiprocity
    Santoshima Resident: yup
    Eliza Madrigal: that was the word that came to mind earlier.... considering what is the 'quality' of play... flow
    Zen Arado: play has connotations of frivolity and not serious though
    Santoshima Resident: bad rap
    Zen Arado: testing the water
    Zen Arado: pretending
    Bleu Oleander: so play vs serious?
    Santoshima Resident: take me to the river drop me in the water
    Zen Arado: simulation
    Bleu Oleander: light vs heavy?
    Bleu Oleander: simulation ... interesting
    Bleu Oleander: way of learning?
    Zen Arado: not trying very hard
    Zen Arado: just playing at it
    Bleu Oleander: can one try hard to play?
    Eliza Madrigal: yes :)
    Eliza Madrigal: can play rough and seriously play, intensely play
    Bleu Oleander: so working at play?
    Zen Arado: just playing with you
    Zen Arado: if in game one plays hard
    Eliza Madrigal: there is an intimate space created between someone and their craft for instance
    Zen Arado: with structure and rules
    Bleu Oleander: play = game?
    Xirana Oximoxi: welll...I think so...usually when playing sports it implies intensity of training
    Zen Arado: game allows hard play
    Bleu Oleander: ah so maybe training required for play?
    Eliza Madrigal: can, nods
    Zen Arado: serious play
    Bleu Oleander: what are the tools of play?
    Zen Arado: so not really play
    Zen Arado: ?
    Bleu Oleander: not so straight forward this "play" thing
    Zen Arado: pro sport not play
    Eliza Madrigal: there always seem to be parallel levels to these discussions
    Santoshima Resident: imagination, context
    Xirana Oximoxi: different sides and meanings of 'play'
    Bleu Oleander: many ways to look at play
    --BELL--

    Zen Arado: I always find that definitions prove meaningless
    Zen Arado: they fall apart
    Zen Arado: it's all a mystery
    Xirana Oximoxi: I agree Zen :)
    Bleu Oleander: I disagree
    Agatha Macbeth: Factor X
    Bleu Oleander: we use definitions to help us understand
    Xirana Oximoxi: they can help give an idea of a concept...but general
    Bleu Oleander: it's when we get stuck with certain definitions that we get into trouble
    Zen Arado: maybe it's an illusory or just useful understanding though
    Zen Arado: words are just defined using other words
    Bleu Oleander: understanding ... there's a topic lol
    Zen Arado: as Ferdinand de Susure stated
    Eliza Madrigal: maybe more useful to share moments of play we've witnessed in our lives...
    Zen Arado: Saussure
    Bleu Oleander: is that right Zen?
    Xirana Oximoxi: :)
    Zen Arado: self related
    Bleu Oleander: or are words defined by our experiences?
    Zen Arado: forget the term
    Zen Arado: language self-reflexive or something
    Eliza Madrigal: I play all the time, yet times i life that I've "entered into play" with someone are very few - perhaps I add some sacredness, oddly
    Bleu Oleander: recipe for play ...
    Zen Arado: we don't know if we are using the word to describe the experience because all of our experiences are different
    Eliza Madrigal: seems vulnerable, like ... willing foolishness and potential for embarrassment
    Bleu Oleander: exactly Zen
    Zen Arado: me being happy is different to others being happy
    Bleu Oleander: hard to know whether my words reach you as intended or not
    Eliza Madrigal: thus sharing sensibilities and stories rather than sure definitions may have more room
    Zen Arado: just rough approximations
    Bleu Oleander: narratives come closer I think
    Zen Arado: but useful nonetheless
    Xirana Oximoxi: must go now... have a nice Sunday all and see you soon! :-)
    Eliza Madrigal waves Xiri :)) sys
    Zen Arado: byee Xiri ;)
    Santoshima Resident: so long Sir, gtsy
    Bleu Oleander: bye Xiri
    Bleu Oleander: take care
    Santoshima Resident: Xir
    Agatha Macbeth: Take care Xira *hug*
    Eliza Madrigal: perhaps reciprocally, we build one another's capacities for play
    Bleu Oleander: even stories though depend ultimately on the understanding of words
    Eliza Madrigal: or knowing someone well enough to hear the way they use their words?
    Zen Arado: joking aside it takes two to play i think
    Eliza Madrigal thinks of people who study one poet their entire lives
    Bleu Oleander: ah so can't play by yourself?
    Zen Arado: or an interaction with rest of world
    Santoshima Resident: please excuse me, enjoy the day everyone ~
    Eliza Madrigal: ty for topic San :) will look into the book
    Bleu Oleander: bye San
    Zen Arado: other humans past or present
    Agatha Macbeth: Bye San
    Zen Arado: bye San
    Santoshima Resident: great book, very worth reading
    Bleu Oleander: can one self play with another self?
    Eliza Madrigal: part of me thinks so and part of me doesn't :P
    Zen Arado: but depends what you mean by self again
    Bleu Oleander: like playing both parts of play :)
    Zen Arado: familiar ground :)
    Eliza Madrigal giggles
    Louis Onyett: Must go. Trying to convince myself to 'play' with lawnmower.
    Bleu Oleander: lol
    Eliza Madrigal: chore day :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Bye Louis, play well
    Eliza Madrigal: speak to it... that helps
    Louis Onyett: Ty, and all of you.
    Eliza Madrigal waves
    Zen Arado: this uniques manifestation or wthe ocean we all manifest out of
    Bleu Oleander: bye take care
    Zen Arado: bye Louis
    Bleu Oleander: hardcore players are left lol
    Eliza Madrigal laughs
    Zen Arado: I more and more identify with what I share with everyone and everything
    Agatha Macbeth: Playing hardball perhaps
    Eliza Madrigal is devoted to play
    Zen Arado: in that sense we can't play alone
    Bleu Oleander: play when you can and often hehe
    Zen Arado: we are intercconnected to everyone and everything
    Bleu Oleander: yes
    Zen Arado: unless we try to disconnect?
    Zen Arado: can we?
    Bleu Oleander: well ... and we have all those microbes with us too
    Zen Arado: life is the ultimate game
    Eliza Madrigal: yes :) when play, at least in the sense I wish to cultivate, shows up spontaneously, one does their best to clear the way
    Zen Arado: we can't stop playing life
    Bleu Oleander: what sense do you wish to cultivate re play?
    Zen Arado: clear the way?
    Eliza Madrigal: the sacredness mentioned earlier... close to spontaneity/flow, and yet with a taste of clarity and openness
    Bleu Oleander: a specific "kind" of play?
    Eliza Madrigal: I do feel that there are many ways to play and yet something that shows up on its own that can't be contrived
    Bleu Oleander: how do you connect sacredness to play?
    Eliza Madrigal: that way, suppose close to "awe"
    Zen Arado: awe at a sports player?
    Eliza Madrigal: maya is said to be the play of appearances I think... illusion or magic of the way things arise interdependently
    Bleu Oleander: hard to know what everyone means when they say play ... not that one needs to define play, but it helps to be on the same page for understanding?
    Zen Arado: doing some thing better than everyone else
    Eliza Madrigal: and the recognition of that play, the appreciation, feels sacred to me I guess... an opening one can enter
    Eliza Madrigal: getting out by getting further in
    Zen Arado: something exceptional..is that sacredness?
    Eliza Madrigal: out of oneself, perhaps (something like that) best I can do to convey
    Eliza Madrigal: brb
    Zen Arado: supernatural
    Agatha Macbeth: Super
    --BELL--

    Bleu Oleander: is a shared language necessary for understanding? for example even what is meant by sacredness?
    Eliza Madrigal: shared language is helpful but impossible :)
    Zen Arado: perhaps broader than that...shared basis of understanding
    Bleu Oleander: what does this mean "maya is said to be the play of appearances I think... illusion or magic of the way things arise interdependently" to someone who doesn't know what maya is?
    Agatha Macbeth: The only Maya I know are the ones in Mexico :p
    Bleu Oleander: so it matters the depth of knowledge or experience one has in order to communicate
    Eliza Madrigal: well that's what it means... just a word
    Bleu Oleander: but the word has some "baggage"
    Eliza Madrigal: like "lila" too
    Agatha Macbeth: Lila?
    Zen Arado: you could worship the same religion with someone yet not speak same language
    Bleu Oleander: :)
    Bleu Oleander: indeed
    Eliza Madrigal: for one and not another... or for one the baggage may be a kind of richness and another an irritation
    Zen Arado: shared humanity
    Bleu Oleander: exactly Eliza
    Zen Arado: someone from another galaxy couldn't play with us perhaps
    Eliza Madrigal: so the room for accommodation would be a key condition for play... to set one another at ease and trust
    Bleu Oleander: so how we approach words and concepts matter I think
    Eliza Madrigal: indeed
    Bleu Oleander: yes and to not speak over the other in a sense
    Bleu Oleander: respect each other's common points
    Bleu Oleander: points where communication is possible
    Eliza Madrigal: ever see a group or been part of a group ... in a kitchen... working on an event?
    Zen Arado: but that is a human assumption that it is good to behave like that
    Bleu Oleander: :)
    Eliza Madrigal: :) Zen
    Bleu Oleander: well ... we are human
    Eliza Madrigal: quite
    Zen Arado: Zen isn't human
    Bleu Oleander: too much sometimes lol
    Zen Arado: :)
    Eliza Madrigal: do think our 'intention' toward manners culture matters, here for instance
    Bleu Oleander: yes
    Eliza Madrigal: it is something I consistently hear that is diff about pab
    Bleu Oleander: manners?
    Bleu Oleander: respect for others? and their ideas?
    Eliza Madrigal: our 'behavior like that'
    Eliza Madrigal: mhm
    Bleu Oleander: all points of view welcomed
    Bleu Oleander: respected
    Zen Arado: Americans have a whole set of cultural assumptions and behavioural mannerisms as all cultures do but they can differ from each other
    Zen Arado: subtly sometimes
    Bleu Oleander: what do you mean "Americans"?
    Zen Arado: American culture
    Bleu Oleander: is there one American culture?
    Zen Arado: a collective understanding of what is right
    Bleu Oleander: I don't even see that
    Bleu Oleander: as one
    Zen Arado: but you have a common basis
    Bleu Oleander: don't see that either
    Bleu Oleander: what would that be?
    Zen Arado: we don't see our built in assumptons
    Agatha Macbeth: I think people on the outside of any culture see it differently from those inside
    Bleu Oleander: generalizing I think
    Zen Arado: of what is the 'right' way to behave
    Bleu Oleander: much more nuanced
    Eliza Madrigal nods Agatha
    Bleu Oleander: yes for sure
    Zen Arado: our ideas of ethics have grown up with us as a way to survive best together while living in groups
    Zen Arado: and become enshrined into laws
    Bleu Oleander: there is a growing global ethic
    Eliza Madrigal: think so?
    Bleu Oleander: yes
    Bleu Oleander: enlarging the group
    Zen Arado: yes...as the world becomes more homogenized
    Zen Arado: through global communication
    Bleu Oleander: as the world becomes "smaller" easier to have empathy for others
    Zen Arado: and we shudder at practices in other countries and they become aware of our horror
    Bleu Oleander: that is the hope anyway
    Zen Arado: or they shudder at us
    Bleu Oleander: widening the circle of empathy and compassion
    Agatha Macbeth: If it gets rid of barriers and removes bigotry I'm all for it
    Bleu Oleander: its a slow process
    Bleu Oleander: but see seeds of change growing
    Zen Arado: bigotry lessens as we become more aware of others
    Agatha Macbeth: Hopefully yes
    Bleu Oleander: bring others into "our" circles
    Zen Arado: ignorance breeds bigotry
    Agatha Macbeth: True
    Zen Arado: separateness
    Zen Arado: so mythys can fester
    Bleu Oleander: global awareness leads to more acceptance, tolerance perhaps?
    Agatha Macbeth: Indeed
    Zen Arado: I think so
    --BELL--

    Eliza Madrigal: yet also such stark divisions so close by
    Agatha Macbeth: But as you say a slow process
    Zen Arado: attitudes die slowly
    Zen Arado: resistance to change
    Bleu Oleander: relatively fast in the larger scope of evolution though
    Zen Arado: oh yes
    Bleu Oleander: well must get going ... lots of playing to do today :)
    Zen Arado: me too
    Bleu Oleander: thank you all for coming
    Bleu Oleander: play well
