Sign Up for MUSIC of the MIND now!

Folks, we need a head count . . . 

If you wish to attend MUSIC OF THE MIND you need to register NOW.

Let me repeat that for emphasis . . . If you are planning on attending the MUSIC OF THE MIND workshop on enhancing musical creativity through trance methods, you must email Lorraine at lorraine@briandavidphillips.com very soon with your name and contact info.

The workshop is free but we have to know how many people plan to come.

See http://www.briandavidphillips.com/workshops/musicmind.html for details.

There's two sides to the coin on the free workshops, if there are a lot of folks wishing to attend, available slots go to the first folks to register with Lorraine. The other side of that coin is that if there aren't enough folks registered then we can't host the event. So, if you wish to attend, it's to your advantage to email Lorraine earlier rather than later.

No, choosing the "attending" option on the Facebook event page is NOT going to cut it. Neither is sending me a message that you would like to attend. You must email Lorraine to let her know you're coming and you should give her your contact info at that time so we can contact you if there is a change in schedule or if the workshop does not make for whatever reason.

If you're a musician, feel free to bring an instrument (well . . . within reason, don't go carting about a full drum kit or grand piano). Obviously, composers or song writers need not carry much at all . . . although you should have your brain in tow on the day of the workshop.

No, you do NOT need to be a musician or composer or have any musical ability or inclination at all in order to attend this event. Some folks work with others and so learning how to guide others is helpful. Also, many of the processes to be demonstrated can be adapted to other creative pursuits . . . in fact, I use a number of these very same processes in the Inspiring Creativity in the Classroom workshops I present to high schools (I have presented variations of this material to students as well as to inservice teachers groups).

On July 3, Brian David Phillips will be conducting a three-hour workshop on MUSIC OF THE MIND: Trance-Based Methods to Enhance Musical Creativity in Taipei.

The Mind Music workshop will teach participants a number of processes for directly accessing the flow and the creative spark for musical composition or creativity. A number of techniques to accelerate the building of musical competence will also be demonstrated.

Anyone is welcome – if you are a musician, feel free to bring your instrument (well, within reason . . . no one should cart around a grand piano or a drum set – we have a perfectly serviceable keyboard that will stand in its stead and you might consider bringing a small hand drum instead of that trap set).

This is a hands-on workshop. Brian David Phillips (master hypnotist) will demonstrate the mental processes and then participants will practice with one another so come prepared to learn by doing.

Previous knowledge of Waking Hypnosis or Focused Trance or experiential trance or hypnosis is not required (do feel free to browse our online shop athttp://www.briandavidphillips.net/store for appropriate DVD training materials if you would like to review materials beforehand, although it is certainly not necessary).


Video and Recording Policies:

Please Note, participants may not use recording devices during the workshop. However, as is typical, the instructor will record the training. Participation in this seminar is considered explicit consent to be recorded on video, audio, and photograph. You must participate, wallflowers need not register.

Videos are used for archival purposes as well as for possible training products. Participants wishing their own copies of any resulting DVD programs will be given the opportunity to purchase pre-release copies at a substantial savings from the retail price.


The MUSIC OF THE MIND workshop on Saturday, July 3, begins at 2:00pm and ends at 5:00pm.

This workshop is part of the work Brian David Phillips has with the Taiwan Chapter of the Society of Experiential Trance at Society of Experiential Trance as a community outreach project. For an online version of this work, see the Commuity at http://trancesociety.net/community (English and Chinese interface available). The tranceworkshop is free and is open to anyone. The workshop is presented in English – contact Lorraine Phillips to register via email at lorraine@briandavidphillips.com and she will provide you with further details and instructions.
