What to Bring

Just bring yourself, your curiosity, and your attention.

Feel free to bring a drink or snack from the library café area if you'd like.

I’ll be in the café area 30 minutes before the event starts if anyone arrives early and wants to say hello beforehand.

We’ll begin promptly at 2pm and end on the nose at 3:30pm.

Group Size

Club meetings are intentionally small and limited to seven total attendees, myself included, so the experience stays conversational and interactive.

Because seating is intentionally limited, please only RSVP if you genuinely plan to attend.

If your plans change, simply update your RSVP as early as possible so another listener can take your place.

Catching Ideas

An excerpt…

“Ideas are like fish.

If you want to catch little fish, you can stay in the shallow water. But if you want to catch the big fish, you've got to go deeper.

Down deep, the fish are more powerful and more pure.

They're huge and abstract. And they're very beautiful.

I look for a certain kind of fish that is important to me, one that can translate to cinema. But there are all kinds of fish swimming down there. There are fish for business, fish for sports. There are fish for everything.

Everything, anything that is a thing, comes up from the deepest level. Modern physics calls that level the Unified Field. The more your consciousness-your awareness-is expanded, the deeper you go toward this source, and the bigger the fish you can catch.”
