NOTE: My principle reason\u00a0for writing this blog was to provide an account of how, for over the past 40+ years or so,<\/em> I have interacted with a number of Eugene Halliday’s concepts, in the hope that this might prove to be of some use to others who might have come across his material.<\/em><\/p>\n

To that end, in February of\u00a02012, I added a blog page to the Eugene Halliday Archive site itself, in which I explain in more detail why I began this project. <\/em><\/p>\n

I would suggest then, that before continuing on here, you first of all visit this page of the Eugene Halliday Archive. Here is the link: Eugene Halliday Archive – Blog Page<\/a>

It was sometime during the early part of 2004 when I first began work on the construction of a \u2018Eugene Halliday Archive\u2019 site, which – as of now – contains freely downloadable files of the majority of his talks and essays. This obviously constitutes a considerable amount of material and if you’re looking through it for the first time, you might want to know which file(s) to open first, and having done so what (if anything) to \u2018do\u2019 next.<\/p>\n

As Eugene Halliday is no longer around to supply you with the answer here (and indeed, I seriously doubt that he ever actually did answer this particular question) I have decided to post accounts of my own experiences with this material of his, in the hope that these might be of some use to you.<\/p>\n

But I must make it clear, here at the outset, that these posts are not intended to constitute any sort of ‘Scheme Of Work’ – in which I suggest something to the effect that you simply start with tape (or ‘seed idea’ – as some are fond of calling them) ‘A’, and having digested this proceed on to ‘B’, until you finally arrive at ‘Z’.<\/p>\n

I must also point out that as the accounts of these various interactions of mine that I offer here have clearly been conditioned by my own particular psychological profile and unique set of life experiences, obviously I can have no idea ultimately what their relevance, or usefulness, (or otherwise) might be to you.<\/p>\n

I attended many of Eugene Halliday\u2019s talks personally; and I believe that I have also read the majority his essays, and listened to recordings of the majority of his talks.<\/p>\n

I was introduced to Eugene Halliday\u2019s ideas sometime during the early mid-Seventies, and over the course of the intervening years I developed a number of methods of applying them. These included:<\/p>\n
