CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT

2nd Annual Festival on Creativity & Solution Finding

"RECLAIMING HUMAN GENIUS"

November 6-8, Atrium of University of Maryland
College Park, Maryland



Genius might be seen as the driving force of human culture
and civilization; a mental and emotional state we all desire and
deserve, but unfortunately only few of us actually have developed it.
After all on the path of human drama and comedy, life, liberty and
pursuit of happiness have always been accompanied by the search for
oneself, the possible self.

As we live in today's complex and accelerating environment of
change, we need new, more efficient and less stressful ways of
discovering and realizing out potential. The strong overlap between
creativity and learning demands a closer consideration in the process
of developing the human potential. After last year's successful
conference in "Applying Tomorrow's Solutions to Today's Problems,"
this year's theme is centered around "Reclaiming Human Genius."

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
This unique symposium will provide you a context for
exploring five inter-connected areas:

1. How to develop the genius within;
2. Ways to improve your interface, as a genius, with the
society;
3. The socio-historical conditions favoring the emergence of
genius and what are roles a genius can play in this;
4. The risk of maladaptation of geniuses and near-geniuses
and alternatives;
5. How you can help in universalizing the experience of human
genius.

Various powerful methods and techniques will be presented and
experimented with in the context of the above areas. Many other
resources from books to softwares will be also available at discount
prices.

PRESENTERS
A wide variety of presenters will provide you with
stimulating and enriching ideas and perspectives. For instance, Dr.
Lyelle Palmer, head of "Society for Accelerated Learning & Teaching,"
will talk on applying stimulus technique to intellectual growth of
children. Dr. Win Wenger, known as today's "more original explorer"
and head of the "Project Renaissance," will help you to create a
personal renaissance of your own.
Professor Luiz DeAndrade will speak on the central role of
the limbic brain on human intellectual activities and its
applications on human growth. Dr. Susan Kodish from the Institute of
General Semantics will bring new insights on the "uncommon sense of
the General Semantics." Paul Scheele, developer of "Photo-Reading"
method, will present his findings on removing barriers for wounded
learners!
Many other presenters will inform you of their research and
developments in the field of human potential. They will guide you in
applying them to what you find most useful.

METHODOLOGY
Beside powerful presentations by a wide array of experts and
researchers, and time for Q&A, each session provides a period for
everyone to participate in an interactive Think-Tank on the issues
raised by the presenter. This highly substantial but interactive and
focused format will allow for expression of one's own perceptions
which not only stimulates and cross-fertilizes thoughts and insights,
but also help us in understanding and remembering materials presented
and discussed in a more effective way.

The fee for the festival is $95.00 ( $75.00 for students ). To
register you can send you check or money order to:
