shorthand

well had an interesting end of week conversation with a guy who i met at an opening and he was telling me about a course he went on in hungary hungary thats aim was to explore and develop your critical thinking and talking. Basically they get torn down in week long series of crits, not sure thats always helpful i said, but he did say what was good was they were not allowed to use shorthand to describe a point, for example couldnt just name an artist to explain an idea or for us talk about auras and expect people to know what that meant. They all had to be clear, and fully expand the thoughts, he said that they achieved equally succint points and they reached total considered clarity and it excluded no one.
Could this be a plan?, i sometimes get confused with whats being said!
