magical view on the climb up Mt. Cadillac
You might want to take a look at what Kurt and I have written in his blog recently. I themes there it bear "relation" or "connections" to themes you brought up in your McDermott posting.

Such thoughts could also be applied to the “performance” of rock climbing I think. I'm simply trying to provoke thinking now about the quality of certain experiences and then how we understand them—give them voice, word, picture—and then use the aesthetic dimensions of this work/play in acts of communication (which are common the teaching and any situation of facilitation or leadership).
I took along McDermott..... but didn’t get to post or comment in more depth on your posting to our blog. But hopefully given what I wrote above? And what I wrote to Kurt this morning (if you take a look) will bear some relation to what we’re doing and something that McDermott fully appreciates in both James and Dewey.
My interest is in more fully examining specific, concrete instances of “experiences had” and how they in-form larger spheres of experience in which we want to exercise a certain qualities of experience perhaps best expressed as in-fluence”.
