No Grounding

...from "One flew over the Cuckoo's Nest"

.... Medication Time

....Party Time!

McMurphy throws a party at the Asylum (Social Energy).  This is the night before he plans to escape.  (Intimate Energy).  Normally, the Social "grounds" the intimate.  But the party turned wild.  The Social Energy did not ground the intimate energy, when the party collapsed in disarray so to did the intimate plans, that needed sober intimate energy.  Although exuberant & vivid, the social energy can be “drunk” when ungrounded.  Next, the nurse came in with her proper energy.

Missing Spaces

...from "One flew over the Cuckoo's Nest"

BIG DAY OUT

McMurphy takes the boys for a daytrip out on the boat.  This "Outdoors Space" is in vivid contrast to the incessant "Domestic Space" of the Asylum.   There's also an element of "Social Energy" also in contrast to the "Proper Energy" of the Nurse. 

This shows how the Asylum is defined by what is missing, i.e. the Outdoor Space.

It is interesting to observe McMurphy's Social tactic when stopped at the wharf by the Marina's staff.  He introduces all the Asylum inmates one at a time, presenting them as distinguished Doctors.  This is an example of being "proper outdoors" and grounding his own social energy.

Space Change

From "one flew over the cuckoos nest",  McMurphy is not allowed to watch the TV despite the World Series being on.  Everything must proceed with the Nurse's "Straightforward energy or Proper Energy" there is to be no celebration, no Social energy for the big event.  McMurphy turns the tables by commentating, from his Essence Space, the World Series anyhow, in front of the blank TV,  imagining the Big Game On in all its excitement and getting everyone involved cheering the game on, he changes the space and makes "Community Space" and "Social Energy".  He signals the "Game is On".
