Somehow this was created with the jingling of keys & coins while the phone was in my pocket.
What is Psychodrama
Looking for suitable descriptions to link to.
Here is a paragraph from the The Federation of Psychodrama Training Institutes in New Zealand (FTINZ) site:
What is Psychodrama
Psychodrama is the name given by J.L. Moreno to the method he developed for helping people become more creative in day to day living. It has applications in many different areas in which people are learning, changing and relating to others, in training, education, healing, spiritual life, business, performing arts and in organisations. Practitioners of this powerful method integrate all levels of a human being: their thinking, their intellect, their imagination, their feelings and their actions in their social context. In this way, learning is able to be applied directly in actual living situations at work, outside the home, in other organizations and in close relationships.

The page is good too, not sure if the general criticism is needed of other modes of work, though I agree with what I is saying; the first paragraph follows:
DDDD
Mutually exclusive items that between them cover all possibilities. What do you call such a list? (I had the name for them in the past, but it escapes me)
This is one for example. :
What to do with stuff
DELETE
DELEGATE
DEFER
DO
Anything delegated needs a new task: follow up xxxx with a due date.
Anything deferred needs a next action
Do includes filing, storing

New iPhone theme for this blog.
Found a better iPhone theme plugin
Now I wonder if this one works when I go from the tweet post directly to this page. That was the problm with my last one.
I like the way there is a button to switch off the theme.
The Digital Connection
I have no doubt behaviour patterns change. The article makes sense. But I don’t like the way people talk about humans. As if we are just a bunch of neurones. It may be true, but music is just vibrations, so are paintings, lightwaves on the retina. That is not human talk.
So a more disturbing phenomena is that people are seen as computers by psychologists.
An interesting article follows none the less about the use of cell phones by kids, and the effect of the net on our concentration.
Dr. Rory Remer
Homepage
I am delighted to have discovered Rory Remer’s site. A Psychodramatist, TEP. Now more focussed on Chaos theory and how it leads to other psychotherapeutic modalities.
Of particular interest are these papers:
An Introduction to Chaos Theory for Psychodramatists
The interesting thing is that here, for the first time I have seen someone make the same point I have in my Psychodrama Thesis and in my Moreno & Scientific Method paper. The fractal nature of the systems.
Blinded By The Light
A critique of “evidence based” practice.
Gender Issues
Has a link to a good article “Did I Hear You? What Are You Really Saying?” (not by him but Denise Twohey and Antoinette L. James University of North Dakota)
And an interesting couple of pages on supervision.
I want to read more some of this carefully!
Movie: Two Hands (1999) *****
Saw the video – snapped off the TV
A 19 year old (Heath Ledger) finds himself in debt to a local gangster (Bryan Brown) when some gang loot disappears and sets him on the run from thugs..
I loved this movie! Tight, funny, great acting, casting and writing & directing by Gregor Jordan is amazing! A n Australian “Smoking Barrels”, but better. Looking to see more from Jordan.
This Blog Works on the iPhone again
I had a plugin that rendered this blog blank on the iphone. Switched to
WordPress PDA & iPhone 1.2.8
This plugin helps the users to view your blog in a pda and iPhone browser. By Imthiaz Rafiq.
& it works well.
The iPhone works OK with the WordPress default theme – no plugin – as well, but with this is marginally more usable.
Later:
Not so fast! The link directly to a post on Twitter leads to a poor rendition. You have to go directly to https://psyberspace.walterlogeman.com for the plugin to take effect!
There must be a better way!
