[Dialogue] Social Process Triangle Roots?

[Don Hinkelman]

Hey Ken,

Shame on me.  Yes, I did forget all that. What a massive effort. I imagine 50-100 houses and cadres were contributing something to the pre-summer program research. Actually, it was the relational "cloud" triangles that may have enduring value as 'post-modern' views of sociality are now taking hold in academia.  Have to get that book by the Jenkins from Wayne.

And, indeed that was the most amazing summer I attended.  There were so many of us, we had to bus over to Malcolm X College to find a room big enough to hold a plenary. The resurgence songs and the musical of the Purple Pumpernickel still dance in my head.

It was to research Economic / Middle East / 1000 BCE to 4000 BCE (I'm not exactly sure of the dates.)  In preparation for S'71 each House had a Social Process research project to cover the three primary aspects, the nine continents and 4 time frames.  That would be 108 parts to put together the following summer.

Jon and Maureen Jenkins were cultural anthropology majors at the time, and contributed the most to the design and categories of the social process triangles during the preparation towards Summer '71. I am sure the roots came from the Life Triangles, as well.
