Introduction The sessions were recorded by Wladimir Voss, transcribed by Rosemary Miller, and finally the production of the Transcript Excerpts was created by Francois Vecchio. All were group participants during the period. Original Transcript Introduction and a Cautionary Note on the Use of the Transcripts Rancho Sante Fe, California Calisthenics of 1979/1984, Transcripts Martin Muller Excerpts These excerpts of the transcripts have been chosen, as they were presented chronologically, for their specificity as topics addressed by Martin. Key words have been highlighted and key phrases or expressions are printed in italic, in order to facilitate the identification of the situation expressed by Martin within the group. Some words are underlined in the original transcripts to reflect the accent in Martin's expression. He (Martin) has warned that these texts need to be apprehended in their context. All encompassing field awareness are the keys. Reference to the complete transcripts will be needed to possible connect with the life of the sessions. Martin: It is my experience that if a transcript is not edited, many things will not make sense for those who do not attend the sessions. There are too many innuendoes that have hidden meanings. For instance the kind of play that goes on in the surroundings that cannot be printed, and if this play is not represented, something is obviously missing - some ways of expressing won't come through. So we make these transcripts available, but only for those who attend the sessions. Always remember, the point, in Calisthenics, is not what you achieve yourself, but what you produce, what you can bring out, what you can do.
Francois originally made the "Transcript Excerpts" document of all sessions in print format available to group participants who requested a copy and he states that to his knowledge the only other document existing is Martin's Book: Prelude to a New Man. He and his wife Christine now reside in Alaska.
