Is Non-Violent Communication coercive and formalised unassertiveness?

admin — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 21:36:16 +0000

It seems to me that NVC is partly about using techniques which are unassertive and being indirect. It also seems to involve failing to listen to people because of excluding the semantic content of their utterances. Whereas it´s important to respect the non-verbal and emotive content of communication, surely this shouldn´t be to the exclusion of cognitive content? Does it not also create a division between the rational and the emotional which doesn´t really exist, which is tantamount to surreptitiously and perhaps even subconsciously introducing one´s own agenda?

Sorry, i could go on and on. Thoughts please.

very interesting .. thanks for sharing this concept with me. i had to look up my ever helpful friend Wikipedia and learnt:

[excerpt]

"The goal of NVC is to get one’s own needs met while also meeting others’ needs. A key principle of nonviolent communication that supports this is the capacity to express oneself without use of good/bad, right/wrong judgment, hence the emphasis on expressing feelings and needs, instead of criticisms or judgments".

aha! i wonder did i somehow subconsciously tap into this process, when i recently wrote a lengthy compensation claim. i actually did consciously choose to write my claim in this way because i felt that it would give the best outcome for me.

i knew that my respondent would most likely be responding to my claim in the calmest and rational terms. in a legal process this is the way you have to express yourself if you want to be taken seriously.

but in everyday matters, like between lovers and friends – now that’s another matter altogether isn’t it? to some extent it is bullshit and not really honest expression. are we playing verbal mind games here or are we expressing ourselves honestly?

ofcourse there is always value in keeping our emotions under control and being non-judgemental as none of us is perfect. it is always helpful to stay rational and consider the other person’s opinion and feelings in a non-judgemental way.

if anyone thinks they are the perfect one and always right – well as an example – i can mention Hitler.

Communication Within the Family Part 2, 5/5

admin — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 12:08:14 +0000

A continuation of our August 22, 2007 show about communication within the family. Whether it is our parents and siblings or our “family” made up of friends, we all want to feel “related” to another human being, and the tug is so strong that we’ll create “family” with the wrong types of people just to fulfill our need to belong. This program is about how to strengthen our family bonds through communication and listening and will provide tips on how to get the children in your life talking and how to open their hearts up to listening too!

LISTENING POST_part2 // Mark Hansen and Ben Rubin

admin — Sat, 05 Jun 2010 00:18:58 +0000

my favorite installation::::this video is taken from the website of the creatores of
LISTENING POST
Mark Hansen and Ben Rubin

Listening Post is an art installation that culls text fragments in real time from thousands of unrestricted Internet chat rooms, bulletin boards and other public forums. The texts are read (or sung) by a voice synthesizer, and simultaneously displayed across a suspended grid of more than two hundred small electronic screens.

Listening Post cycles through a series of six movements, each a different arrangement of visual, aural, and musical elements, each with it’s own data processing logic.

Dissociating the communication from its conventional on-screen presence, Listening Post is a visual and sonic response to the content, magnitude, and immediacy of virtual communication.

what how are scientists looking for extraterrestrial communication and what is looking for signals in space?

admin — Thu, 03 Jun 2010 15:15:10 +0000

our scientific search for higher forms of life has centered on listening for signals from outer space. What is the name of this project and how are scientists looking for extraterrestrial communication.

The biggest program is SETI, or Search for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence.

It primarily works by scanning different areas of the sky for patterns in electromagnetic radiation or other forms of signals or anything that could be some form of communication. There are normally no patterns to interstellar radiation and the energy is fairly low, so finding a burst of patterned and high-energy radiation would be a pretty strong indicator of an intelligent source.

This program takes a look at what gets in the way of our really listening to what is being said, how to get around it, and reap the benefits of listening and being listened to!
