A crisp, short, precisely one-hundred-minutes practice session taken from the signature offer of Skool Beyond Borders.
A number of our dojos are based on immersive art experiences, which are presented as empty vessels from which learning takeaways are extracted through meaningful dialogues.
One of these formats which has been particularly successful is the session based on Two, a short film by the grand master of Bengali arthouse film and Oscar winner Satyajit Ray (1921-1992). Others are art-based storytelling ateliers, driven by incidental art by Hokusai, Hiroshige, Rao Pingru, Saul Leiter, and many others.
I consider Satyajit Ray as one of the main inspirators of my life and work.
Ray often worked for commercial clients. Two was created as an assignment for Esso in 1954. Even today, it proves to still be an extraordinary vehicle for learning.
In this article, I describe a short format, designed to last no more than 40 minutes. This is how I ran this activity in the early years. Later, I extended the post-viewing dialogues with insight-sharing rounds up to 100 minutes - a strategy that helps for learning takeaways to be collectivized and become more multi-faceted, and stronger.
