Guitar Craft completará su ciclo en 2017 y habrá una caja a finales de ese año.

Hola.

Lo dicho, en un anuncio dado en Facebook, Robert Fripp anuncia el final de Guitar Craft:
I propose that, as of March 25th. 2017, all formal structures connected to Guitar Craft and The Guitar Circle will cease to exist: no more Guitar Circles, no more Orchestras Of Crafty Guitarists, no more League Of Crafty Guitarists, and so on.

Completion Of Guitar Craft & The Guitar Circle.

I

DGM is planning a Guitar Craft Box Set for release in October 2017 to include a comprehensive selection of recordings and videos from throughout the period.

A key element is written and pictorial material to present the History Of Guitar Craft & The Guitar Circle 1985-2016.

Consider time, place, person and circumstance.

Timeline: 1985-2016. The beginning and unfolding of events. NST.

Courses.
Geography: GC in the US, Europe, Japan, Argentina, Mexico.
Houses: RLH, Elizabeth at the RLH; Alfeldt.

Personal: journals, comments, reports, observations, noticings and Points Of Seeing.

Circumstances / Situations:
Projects: Performance Projects, The LCG, Bogo Tour, The OCG, The SofGC,
Small groups: CGT, Gauchos, Big Time, Zum et al.

Local Circles:
Seattle Residential Performance Project.

The Guitarist Inside: the place of Morning Sitting, Inner Exercises.
SSGs, AADs.

Bodywork in GC: Alexander and T’ai Chi.
The role of women in GC.

Robert’s primary written contribution will be The Guitar Circle book;
with translations where available.

Worthwhile ventures and undertakings are subject to the laws of process: they go off course. Forms of organization and expression become fixed, sclerotic and ossify. This is especially so when the Founder, and/or moving forces in a venture, leave.

For the creative current that moves through GC, to continue in an authentic and living fashion, the recognisable GC forms must change. My own work and participation in GC courses and projects completes in October 2016.

GC has its 31st. anniversary on March 25th. 2016. It is in its fifth 7-year cycle, entering its Great Divide. I propose that, as of March 25th. 2017, all formal structures connected to Guitar Craft and The Guitar Circle will cease to exist: no more Guitar Circles, no more Orchestras Of Crafty Guitarists, no more League Of Crafty Guitarists, and so on.

Compiling The History Of Guitar Craft, in the Guitar Craft Box Set, I see as part of the process necessary to carry the GC current through its Great Divide. Forms, vehicles and structures will be different on the other side, with their own names, originating from and through those who wish to find new ways of working with the GC current.

Guitar Craft will cease to exist, again.
The Guitar Circle will cease to exist, as will local Guitar Circles.

Meanwhile, the GC Box Set is on the way.

Hernan is responsible with his Team for assembling audio and video material from throughout the period.

Various Team members are looking at how best to bring together recollections and personal histories. All those who have participated in GC activities are invited to contribute. Where these contributions do not become part of the Box Set printed History, it may become part of a GC archive available on the DGM website.

DGM is looking at having the written, audio and visual material available in outline by the end of 2016; compiled in presentable formats by March 25th. 2017; when Guitar Craft, The Guitar Circle and its offshoots will formally cease to exist.

In actuality, GC will most likely have already completed its work before then; and new forms begun to appear that carry the recognisable creative current which has moved through Guitar Craft since the beginning.

Para alguno va a ser como si el Papa acabara con el catolicismo por decreto.

Para alguno va a ser como si el Papa acabara con el catolicismo por decreto.

Yo dudo mucho que los Círculos que hay dispersos por todo el mundo se deshagan sin más. Habrá de todo, pero la gente hará lo que le parezca mejor.
Digamos, que desaparece la organización, ¿no?

A fin de cuentas en Argentina existe la Iglesia Maradoniana

Ayer justo dio la segunda audición con los Crafty Guitarrists en la Ciudad de México.
Tepoztlán es un pueblo que por lo visto se ha puesto de moda ultimamente. Yo solía pasar muchos fines de semana en verano explorando cuevas en los alrededores.
